Easter Bunny

I have been talking to Eli about the Easter Bunny for a few weeks now. I brought out the picture from last year and asked him if he wanted to go see the Easter Bunny. He has been very excited about getting to see the Easter Bunny. Even saying he wanted to sit on the Easter Bunny's lap. We got up this morning and told Eli we were going to go see the Easter Bunny. He was so so so excited! We went to our local mall (where we saw Santa) and to my complete shock the Easter Bunny wasn't there. I just assumed all big malls had an Easter Bunny. I was so disappointed and knew that Eli would be too. Mike used his phone and looked up Easter Bunny in Iowa City and LUCKILY a Hyvee grocery store was doing pictures with Easter Bunny only today, and it was FREE!!! Eli was so excited when he saw the Easter Bunny. He sat on his lap and then sat next to him while Jude sat on his lap. He then gave the Easter Bunny a hug before he got down! It was so swwet. It took us about 1 1/2 hours extra to drive around and find the grocery store, but it was so worth it to see how excited Eli was!!

We never found the Easter Bunny this weekend, but i'm going to check on Saturday, no way was i paying $25 for it at the mall! Love the pictures!

Here's Nick's nap routine. Usually aftere he's been up for 2 hours we read him 2 short books, the same ones we read him at night minus the one long one, 3 hylands teething tablets, if he's chewing on his lip, then kisses and hug, then turn on the cd player, baby lullibies no words, just sounds, then his favorite stuffed animal and his usual 'crib only blanket'. He's such a routine baby i think all these things combined work. He takes all naps in his crib now and i always tell him i love him a few times as i'm backing out of the room and shutting the door. Hope this helps, without a nap schedule Nick is not a happy baby!
