Happy Easter 2016

Today was a lovely Easter Sunday,

even if the Easter Bunny is waiting until Friday to visit our house!

It's bound to be more fun with Nanny and Poppy Lynch visiting,

so that's our plan.

Thankfully the Easter Bunny was happy to oblige and postpone his visit.

My girls played together SO incredibly well today.

Happy Easter to ME!

Piper loves pretending to be a mommy and Elliotte loves pretending to be a baby,

so they compliment each other very well when they both want to play house.

We also took advantage of the beautiful sunny day to go for a walk and wagon ride. 

We haven't been outside much this winter

due to the flu bug invading our house for weeks on end.

It has made for a long winter.

The fresh air must have given Elliotte quite an appetite. 

I cooked the traditional Newfie turkey dinner for supper, 

but with a chicken instead of a turkey since it was only for the four of us.

Elliotte couldn't feed herself fast enough,

so she kept asking me to help her eat so that I could literally shovel it into her mouth.

I'm not even sure she was chewing.

She ate EVERYTHING on her plate.

Chicken, dressing, cranberry sauce, gravy, potato, cabbage turnip and carrot.

She mostly kept asking for more and more chicken and dressing,

but would settle for the vegetable bites 

while she was waiting for me to cut up more chicken.

She ate everything that was on her plate 

AND almost everything that was on mine!

I honestly had to go and refill my plate in order to eat anything.

I couldn't even take a bite of my own supper

because little grubby guts was begging me to feed her faster than she could feed herself. 

Haha.

If that wasn't a compliment to the cook

I don't know what is!

Piper ate everything on her plate as well,

making sure that she had cabbage because she likes to toot. 

(Shaking my head!)

She just took a LOT longer because it's really hard to eat when you can't stop talking!!

Happy Easter everyone!!

Happy little ladies!

Not so happy little lady.
She was so tired after getting up at 5:30 this morning and wanted her 'sleepy' blanket.
