EASTER EGG COLORING......
Let me do it, I promise I won't throw this one!!!
Look Daddy, it's turning blue!!!

So many colors, so little amounts of eggs.......

Another first in Nico's Adventures....easter egg coloring, we'll maybe not exactly the first because last year he did carry an egg around and then broke it, so maybe that counts?? Anyway, tonight Bryan and I decided to have another Nico experience and color easter eggs. I was really excited, but Bryan just goes with the flow as he expected Nico to do what he did at the pumpkin carving experience which was running away to play, BUT.......

So it started out today while I was at work Nico and Daddy went out and bought the eggs to bring home and boil. Mommy came home with dinner and then it was coloring time!!! So Daddy got the egg dye all ready while Mommy stripped Nico down to his diaper and socks, with a white sleeved shirt and white undershirt I could only imagine what would happen if I didn't. Anyway, we put a cardboard box down on the table, propped Nico on the chair and off we were starting the process of coloring easter eggs. To our surprise Nico kind of liked the idea and even said Thank you on some of the tape we have, but not to our surprise the first egg he got a hold of he threw and then it was on dye everywhere, but luckily only all over the cardboard!!

After a few more cracked eggs, and Mommy and Daddy finished the eighteen pack and called it a night. Nico only stuck his fingers in the vinegar water twice but surprisingly didn't even make a face when he put them in his mouth. I thought that is pretty nasty but the kids gotta learn somehow, right??

So out of eighteen eggs I think we have 2 or 3 that don't have cracks in them, but hey to me that only adds character, right??

Happy Easter everyone and keep visiting for another installment of Nico's adventures......
