Dying Eggs

How do you dye easter eggs with a one year old?! You begin with high hopes believing she just may be able to contain her excitement and curiosity and not create a distaster. So you give her a mug of dye and a hard boiled egg. Then you are quickly brought back to reality when dye is splashed, the egg is tasted and your cat like reflexes catch the egg as it goes sailing through the air. So you switch to plan B--plastic eggs and a bowl of water. The best part about it is she doesn't know the difference and has a blast playing with the eggs, splashing in the water and pouring the whole bowl of water down the front of her shirt. All in all it was a fun first and a learning experience for a new mom.

Evan loved seeing how many eggs he could get in one mug before water began spilling everywhere
