Axel's First Haircut

Image
  While I was in love with his adorable curls, Axel has been brushing his hair out of his eyes an awful lot lately and we decided it was finally time for his first haircut. before Axel and Chris both went for a trim today at the Shed .   The stylists were awesome and handled Axel's tears and screams with incredible patience. I'm very impressed the final results considering all the squirming he did! after

Happy Easter!

  I hope you are enjoying the long weekend! We've been having lots of fun with Easter stuff now that Axel is old enough to be excited about bunnies and eggs. Axel helped blow out and dye the eggs. I'm impressed that we only broke one! We used food colouring, water, vinegar and a bit of olive oil to get some pretty marbled eggs. And it was easy enough for a two-and-a-half-year-old (with a bit of supervision). We decided to cook a turkey and invited a few friends over for dinner. I really need to host dinner parties more often, they're so fun!   I set the table with cute napkin bunnies ( thanks Martha Stewart !) and flowers in some stuff from our silver tea set collection.   Since we have a huge collection of bunny ears for the Billion Bunny March , I had enough for everyone at dinner. This morning Axel hunted for eggs around the house (the ones we dyed and a few chocolate ones too). I think Chris and I had as much fun hiding the eggs...
