Easter eggs

Calvin and I dyed Easter eggs earlier this week to take to an egg hunt that he had been invited to by some friends. I didn't get any pictures of the actual dying process because close supervision was necessary after a rough start. I had opened the packet of dye tablets and asked Calvin to put one tablet in each of the cups he had set out earlier. When I came back inside from checking on the cat (all of 10 seconds later) I found Calvin flinging purple spit onto the floor. He had put the purple tablet in his mouth and found it to be rather disgusting so he grabbed it out of his mouth and dropped it onto the floor. Luckily, our night only got better from there. Anyway, he had fun dunking the eggs and grabbing them out of the cups with his hands. He had even more fun smashing eggs together when we were done cleaning up.

If I had only been a second faster with the camera. This is his face after throwing his head back and howling with laughter. He thought it was so funny to smash the eggs together.
