The Dike Family: Happy Easter!

Easter is so much fun! Forrest has been talking about it for weeks. He would find pretend Easter eggs all over and bring them to you, telling you what color they were. Unfortunately, Forrest woke up Saturday morning with a hurt leg. We aren't sure what he did, but he wouldn't walk on it. He kept saying "Mommy carry me" and then later in the evening, he started crawling around. So, we missed out on the town Easter egg hunt, because he couldn't walk!

We woke up Easter morning completely unprepared. The eggs weren't even boiled, let alone dyed! But, after cleaning the living room (that was the requirement to be able to find eggs), we ate breakfast, dyed eggs, and then found them again and again and again. Forrest did a really good job dying the eggs. I covered the table and floor with plastic, just to be safe, but he was very careful and didn't make a mess at all. It was kind of sad watching Forrest crawl around on his knees, finding eggs. Later, luckily, he started to feel better and after using his toy chain saw as a crutch he was able to hobble around unassisted. By the evening, he was walking just fine. But, for some reason, it hurts again this morning.
