As you've already seen from the previous post, Vita woke up on Easter morning... put on a pretty dress, and discovered an Easter basket on the floor in the living room! The Easter basket was comprised entirely of things given to Vita last Easter (that she had since forgotten about) and things we had to get Vita anyway, like new shoes. Yet, it was a huge success and was greeted with shrieks of joy and excited giggles. I love this shot of Vita surrounded by her Easter things, with the sunlight on her curls and the nape of her neck. So pretty.
Then, Vita staged her own little Easter parade, walking in circles through the living room and dining room with her Easter basket.
Next, Vita changed into another pretty dress and we headed down to the Boardwalk to take Vita on the merry go round for the first time. When we're out and about on the town, Vita likes to walk on her own (rather than be carried) but when we are in a crowd or near a street, Vita allows us to hold her hand.
In line for the ride, Vita checks out all the horses. She enjoyed the ride, although she maintained a look of concern on her face.
Back out on the Boardwalk, Vita was quite insistent about walking on her own. There were so many people and rides, and dogs, and the beach, and other kids to see... she was on information overload and she tried to make a break for it a couple of times.
After a nice long nap at home, we went out into the backyard to find that the Easter Bunny had hidden some eggs on the lawn.
Here's another one!
And there's more over there!
Go get it Vita!
Vita found all the eggs, but not before some blue jays had taken the organic treats out of some of them. Finally, when Vita sat in my lap to examine some of the eggs, this was what I saw when I looked down, and I really love the look of the dress, the eyelet, the shiny red shoes, and the green grass.
It wasn't until bedtime (my normal blogging time) that Ernie and Vita both weren't feeling well. Anyway, everyone is fine now, and a great Easter was had by all.
