Look an egg, it's in a tree.

Today is Easter and we were excited to get GA into the fun of an egg hunt. Grandma sent her an Easter egg hunting dress and Daddy and I filled Easter eggs with fun little toys and stickers (since she can't have the candy). Unfortunately, GA decided to come down with a cold yesterday and has turned into the snot monster today. However, I refused to give in to the evil sickness. The sun came out and Kris and I went down to hide some eggs around the yard. We had to put the pretty Easter dress over her pajamas because it was a little chilly, but we headed out.

We decided to recycle her Halloween basket for GA to put her eggs in. Even though she wasn't as energy -filled today due to the cold, she was pretty excited to look for the eggs and put them in her bucket. She kept saying, "Oh, another egg." and "Do you see an egg? Yeah, there it is. I got it." It was adorable. My favorite was, "Look and egg, it's in a tree." She's so cute. After collecting her eggs we went and opened the eggs to get the little presents which she was happy about. We saved some of the eggs so that we can do another egg hunt with her NT friend from down the street once she's not sick anymore. I don't think she'll care that it's not Easter anymore.

Once all the Easter fun was finished, We all made dinner as a family. GA helped us make meatballs and GFCF pasta. She mixed the spices into the meat and rolled it into little balls that she put in her pot of sauce. We put rice in the meatballs which makes them have little spikes so she ran into the kitchen yelling, "PORCUPINE MEATBALLS!" Over all she had a good day of interacting with us even with the sickness. Last night I laid with her in her bed and she let me rub her head like she used to when she was a wee babe. It was nice and she fell asleep so fast, she must have been exhausted.

I think she has been less hyper this week, although it's hard to tell if it's the cold or the GABA. We'll go with both and see how she changes once she's healthier. We have an appt. with the DAN doctor Friday so I am kinda excited to see what suggestions he has for GA's treatment.

Anyway, happy Easter everyone.
