Easter Egg Hunt

On Saturday we were invited to go to an Egg Hunt. I was so excited! That was going to be my first time going Egg Hunt the American Way.  It was supposed to be awesome, and it was.

We got there around 10 am and would not leave until noon. There were a lot of things for kids to play and Lucas wanted to try everything… Well, not quite everything. We tried to put him inside one of those inflatable’s jumpers but as soon as he got his face there, some kids that were playing accidentally put him down, so he did not want to go back there. My husband and I were like, well, I don’t think Lucas will enjoy any of those things, those are for bigger kids….and when we saw, he was running towards the biggest slide by himself, and he did it!!! He did it 1, 2, 3, 4 times. He loved it!!!

After spending an hour going up and down on those slides, it was time for the big event of the day. There was a helicopter throwing 10.000 eggs on the field for the kids to go hunt. Lucas in the beginning did not care for the eggs. He was just amazed by the helicopter. He could not take his eyes off it. We got 5 or 6 eggs for him. After the hunt was over and most kids had left the field we strated throwing eggs around him without him seeing it and when he started finding it, he understood what was going on and he wanted to find more and more. Some of the eggs had prizes inside and we were so lucky that we got 3 prizes – a marble game, colored chalk and a ticket to McWane Center.

I was so happy that we went there and had a great experience, great time with great friends!!!
Now we are planning on having our own Egg Hunt on Sunday. We will have some friends from New Orleans here with us. They are actually from Brasil too, so we will have a American/Brazilian Easter. I will tell you guys later how we celebrate Easter with kids. It is fun too.

I LOVE YOU!!!

Today I was watching Lucas playing at his playhouse and I could not believe when I noticed that his head was  almost touching the ceiling of his house. It was yesterday when I was holding him for the first time. I will never forget that moment. He had his big brown eyes opened looking at us and everything around him, like if he did not want to miss a moment, and me neither.
Now he is running all over the place, letting everyone know that he is here and he is here to make a difference.  He is talking, expressing him self, growing healthy, strong and happy...... way tooooooooooo fast!!! Can we just stop the time, please?
He is always laughing, playing, dancing, singing, happy, talking, imagining, creating. He is a happy little boy!!!
He makes me and his dad, the happiest parents in the world. We are just so blessed to have him in our life!!!!

Easter Bunny Craft

I was searching online for some Easter craft ideas to make with Lucas and I found those cute little bunnies that I loved.  I am not very talented but it looks like I can make it. Why not!?!?  LOL (stop laughing, I will try ok!).

I think those bunnies will be great to decorate your house, your table for an Easter brunch with families and kids, and a great family fun activity too. I am also thinking about using some of those bunnies to display on top of the table and/or on top of each one of my guess plates too. I think it will look adorable and everyone will love it, can’t wait to put my hands on it!!!

I found this Tutorial at V and CO blog, go here and you will be able to see  it. Have fun and send me pictures of yours, I will love to see it.

Bath Tub Paint Party

A few weeks ago I was visiting one blog that I do like a lot - The Idea Room - and saw her post about a fun time that she had with her kids painting at the bath tub and I loved the idea. I decided to do something similar to that with Lucas so I created my own paint with him and we had lots of fun.

To make the paint we used:
Flour
Kids shower gel
Food coloring

In a plastic container pour a little of the flour, ( I am terrible with giving recipes up, I never know how much of this or that I used, sorry, you can blame it on me), twice that amount of the shower gel and then color it with food coloring.  I used shower gel just in case it gets to his eyes, so I knew it would not be a big of a deal.

I gave him some brush, sponges and let him play. He painted our entire tub; tried to paint myself, his toys. What a good messy bath he had! I enjoyed as much as he did watch him playing at the tub. I just wanted to make sure that he wasn't eating that.

In the end, I gave him some clean sponges and asked him to clean it up. He is such a great helper!!!! Seriously, Lucas likes everything clean and organized and I love it on him. It is funny because sometimes, when the house is messy, he will be picking things and organizing it as he is playing. Just like his mom, LOL.
