Easter Stuff

A bit behind here... I'm gonna blame that on my bathroom reno that is STILL ongoing. Grrrrrr.... who knew drywalling, painting, plumbing, tiling, and installing fixtures would take more than a weekend?! Guess I should've! I showered with all the kids the other night in our tiny little corner shower - and at one point found myself standing in the middle of the shower, hands over my ears, while all four of them formed a running circle around me screaming and giggling at the top of their lungs.  That is VERY VERY loud inside a little fibreglass shower I'll have you know.  I couldn't do anything but stand there and laugh.  And wish I had a tiny bit more space (and privacy) to shave my legs.  We are beginning the tiling process now... after which we will install the tub taps and then we can finally bath the kids again.  I will definitely be sharing some pics of that!

In the meantime, here's a pic of the kids at Easter. The Easter Bunny sent the kids on a little treasure hunt this year. Each kid found clue cards (which were actually printed photos of certain places in our house) with a couple gummy bears at each stop.  The cards were colour coded for each kid so that everyone got one at every location (and to lower the risk of fighting).  At the end they found sand pails with a few small toys in them. I've never been a fan of toys for Easter, but this year we decided a couple inexpensive toys were better than baskets of candy... since four kids and a whole lot of candy don't seem to mix too well.  I was a little worried Griff would be disappointed, but the little sweetheart went on and on about how kind the Easter Bunny was to give them all those gummy bears AND toys. Lesson learned - less junk, more fun!
