Easter Egg Coloring







We decided to do Easter egg coloring yesterday after everyone had their Sunday naps..We invited my dad over for dinner and eggs...This was Justin's first time coloring eggs and he LOVED IT!! It was so funny to watch him....He just dove right in, grabbing as many eggs as he could and plopping them into each mug as the coloring splattered everywhere, and then when he thought they were done, he just grabbed them out of the cups with his hand as it dripped all down his arm and put them in the egg cartons, he went through the eggs so fast, we had 2 dozen and I think everyone else just got to color 2 eggs.....Once he realized that there were no more white eggs, he decided to re-baptize the already colored eggs again...it was a hoot...we had a lovely mess afterwards, thank goodness for good old kitchen bleach cleaner :)

how fun!! you are one brave mama to do that, i probably should get over my anti-mess personality because there are so many fun things that are just plain messy that i don't want my kids to miss out on :)

I used to be the same way Sarah, it took having the 4th kids to get me to relax...a little anyways :) Just make sure you always have a Magic Eraser or bleach cleaner on hand, it will clean up anything :)

Those are some impressive eggs- Justin is a natural! Nothing like decorating eggs to get you in the holiday spirit! I'm proud of you for letting Justin get down and dirty :)
