Easter Egg Coloring

Hunter's new catch phrase is "I wanna do it" or "I can help." This now applies to dressing/undressing, brushing his teeth, brushing his hair, putting the lid on his cup, carrying stuff, putting his clothes up in drawers, putting plates in the sink, feeding Missy....you name it. BUT I had to draw the line when he tried to change his own diaper, and admittedly he moved faster than I could catch, and we ended up with a big blog of poo on the carpet......that is a story for a different blog post!

On a brighter note, it was really fun watching him continue the Trachier family tradition of dying Easter eggs - all by himself!

This is me trying to help and Hunter saying "I wanna do it"


Coloring the egg. Love the concentration!


Dipping the egg like an old pro


Then he figured it was just easier to use his hand.....Haha


Beautiful creation


"I am so good I can do two eggs at once, without looking"


Finished products :)


True with the Trachier household, it is a competition (we are not competitive or anything). Uncle Lance got 1st and 2nd in show. Hunter got 3rd. But if there was a competition for the best dyed hand (or belly), Hunter would have won 1st :)


Hunter loved this so much that he kept dying eggs and Uncle Lance only got to decorate 3 of them. It was a complete mess, but totally worth it! I love these moments with my family!
