If you hadn’t noticed…. I took a little week off blogging to spend some time with the family. That will explain why I’m sharing Easter photos a week and a half later. Ha! It was a lovely lovely vacation you guys. Some time off I really needed. I still worked on orders for custom drawings… and, answered emails…. but, mostly I stayed away from blogging. It was hard! But, I did it and enjoyed my free time.
We wandered up to Bellingham, WA to hang out with the husband’s family during the Easter weekend. Lots of fun, candy, wine, and holy moly toddler meltdowns (see yesterday’s post). BUT, I’m pretty sure the highlight of the weekend for Miss R was… the candy. Oh yes. We rarely give it to her because… well, she doesn’t need it and never asks for it. So, we just pretend it doesn’t exist most of the time. When it comes to Easter… apparently there was no way around the no-candy deal. I was fine with this for one day… but, the kiddo seriously ate zero real food that day! She only ate candy… and, when I hid it from her: some sucker (ahem husband) gave in to her sad-no-candy face… and, gave her more. Ha! Oh well. We ended the evening with thee most amazingly terrible toddler melt down to date. It was AWFUL. Wow. Still scarred from that.
But, all in all it was an amazing week! I even managed to catch one photo of the ever elusive husband. The settings were all perfect… he was distracted by his family…. playing an egg toss…. there was beer… and, I got a photo! Hee.
I hope you all enjoyed your holiday weekend!

Oh my gosh! I only have a 3 mon. old but I teach girls the same age as your little lady….this is perfect! I LOVE your blog….you inspired me to become a "mommy blogger" too! Thanks!
You crack me up SO MUCH! love all the photos and the commentary (I can't decide which I love more…)
I have to tell you; the blurbs on these photos are totally priceless. I chocked on my cereal a little! ^_^
these are a RIOT! my fave is kitty's space bubble ♥
Okay, those are just hilarious!
Love the captions, especially the cat who's like "crap, respect the bubble please". We also pretend like candy doesn't exist but I'm not sure how much longer that's gonna last.
These captions are hilarious! Poor kitty! 😛
Ha! She was actually pretty good with the kitty… but, the kitty was nervous.
Sounds like you guys had fun! Love the pictures of Ruari! She is just so darn cute! I'm sure her meltdowns are not that cute though. ;o)
Ha! Well, sometimes I laugh because they are pretty ridiculous. 😉
Good for you for taking a break! We all need that every now and again! Your little one is a doll. (Although I'm not there for the tantrums- lol). The caption with the dora book cracks me up! Looks like it was a stellar easter!
The break was lovely. I really do feel refreshed. It's hard to remember that…. even though I work at home… I still need to take time off! 🙂
I'm loving the red shoes!
Have a great WW
POSH
She picked them out herself…. while thrifting. I'm so proud. 🙂
Thanks for the funnies!! Oh, I did a fun twisty pony tail yesterday that was inspired by your hair tutorials! Weee!
Yay!
Oh my. This literally made me laugh out loud! HAHAHA. So good.
I feel your pain regarding the candy/spectacular melt-downs, but I'm too distracted by your hilarious captions to do anything but laught. 😀
Ha ha!

haha love this post and the title. My two kids rarely get candy either but Easter weekend included lots of candy. The newly minted one year old decided he wanted jelly beans. Choking hazard much? But he chewed them- a lot of them! Thank goodness holidays are once in awhile. Ah meltdowns…welcome to toddlerhood. The honeymoon is over. 🙂
Ha ha! The honeymoon is totally over.
