Shyla's Easter Basket

Let's take a look at Shyla's Easter basket:

Here's what it contained:

• A card from Mommy and Daddy with Easter stickers (which she didn't care much about)
• A Furry lamb (which she threw to the side)
• A pack of Peeps (we called them "treats" and she ate 1, except the head)
• 3 Books (we read 1 tonight)
• An Easter plate (to which she said, "plate!" when she saw it)
• 5 large Easter eggs filled with Sesame Street figures (she probably would have played with these all day...they were quite the hit!)
• A pack of bath-time foam words
• Elmo Bubble Bath
• Elmo Bath Fizzers to change the color of the bath water

You may be wondering why the Easter Bunny put such emphasis on bath-time stuff. Well, Shyla has decided that she hates her bath. For the past few weeks bath-time has been a struggle, an aerobic workout, emotionally draining, and very, very, very wet.

But, tonight....Easter night....bath-time was a bubbly success! She loved the bubbles and she loved that she could throw her foam words into the tub (we didn't even open the fizzers yet!)

Score one for mommy and daddy (errr, I mean the Easter Bunny)!
