Decorating Easter Eggs at home.

Friday Easter Egg Hunt in Kaanapali!

We've had a really busy week with Easter eggs hunts and we decorated Easter eggs today. Kalia is really into it this year and pretends to find easter eggs around the house or wants me to hide her empty eggs around the house (I've been putting a couple pieces of popcorn or cereal inside and she says "oh, cereal!" "oh, popcorn"). Thanks tutu for Kalia's Tinkerbell easter egg decorating set, she LOVED it! Although she calls it "twikerbell" and yes, aunty kim we are still listening to the song from tinkerbell on repeat in the car. There was another Easter Egg hunt in Kaanapali today and we went and had a lot of fun. Kalia was very excited about all of her treats!

Maya has been really smiley and making lots of sounds. She really smiles when Kalia comes up or gets a little scared. I guess when you've spent your entire life with a 2 year old invading your personal space - it's really no big deal. She is really a mellow baby...until you make her mad then she goes from 0 to 10 in no time. I'm pretty sure that Kalia never cried as loud as Maya does when she's cold after her bath. But besides that she really just hangs out. She watched us have a dance party in the living room yesterday afternoon. I think maybe she thought it was more entertaining than her mobile, but she never let it show. Kalia was really showing us some moves -- she was taking the whole thing very seriously and even told us we were dancing too fast at one point.

Kalia has been making me feel a little bi-polar these days. How can someone so sweet, who says the cutest things and is so giving one minute push you to the edge of a cliff the next? She was telling me tonight before bed "i love you so much mommy, you are my best friend. I give you kisses and hugs" and she was cuddling so much with me. Just now she just screamed like someone was in her room with a knife--just to see if it would make us come...

Potty training is going really well. We really haven't had an accident since Aunty Kim left and that was almost 2 weeks ago. However, we also haven't pooped in the potty since Aunty Kim was here. I put a diaper on Kalia for nap and bedtime and she poops every time that diaper is on...but at least no accidents.

Hopefully we'll get our beach day tomorrow, the weather has been really overcast and rainy. I got to surf on Tuesday afternoon and it felt great. Looking forward to Easter, Kalia will be really excited to hunt for eggs.
