Happy Easter

Just like the mysterious Santa Clause came to leave presents at Christmas time, the mysterious Easter Bunny stopped by our house with some presents and chocolate. According to Maeve he also nibbled on a few cookies while he was here...just like Santa Clause.

"'member Santa came our house and ate cookies. Easta bunny came too. Maybe he ate cookies."

Maeve had a great time doing Easter crafts at school and at home. Then when the big day came she was THRILLED to hunt for presents around our house and at Grandma's house.

She talks a mile a minute now, but only at daycare and at home. In public she'll only talk if she thinks no one else is paying attention. As soon as anyone focuses on her she is silent as a mouse.

She loves to discuss how she is a big girl now and can do lots of things by herself.
"Don't feed me like a baby mama. I feed myself. It ok I use my fingers? 'member I was a baby in China you fed me noodles? I like noodles. I love you mama. You hold me forever?"

We're currently working on getting her not to boss her friends around at daycare. She loves being the teacher's helper, but thinks that her helper status extends into being able to tell her friends what to do and how to do it. I hope she's not learning to be bossy from me...
