Egg huntin'.

We took Theo to his first community Easter egg hunt today. It was nicely done, at the park right up from our house. They had the kids grouped by age and Theo was in the 0-3 set. They had some inflatables (too little) and some food that made me want to gag (but would have otherwise loved) and Theo had a great time just walking around. When it was time for his group, everyone lined up. Now, there were about a trillion eggs in a big field for the little guys, so everyone was sure to walk away with more than a few eggs. Theo, being 16 months old, didn't really understand the concept. Susan tossed 4 little eggs right in front of him so that I could help him and explain what we were doing. Next thing I know, some doofus is telling his (older) son, "here little shmoopy, get one of those eggs." Seriously. He's a year old, people were leaving with 5 times as many eggs and he's going to take one from a baby??? I shot him a look, which he either didn't get or didn't care about and then reached down and took an egg. I wanted to punch him, but as Theo didn't really get the deal anyway, I let it go. I guess next year we will have to practice. Who knew egg hunts are so cutthroat??

He had a good time anyway. The weather was cool, which was nice as I picked up his little outfit at a major steal at Snottery Barn Kids last year and was happy he got to wear it. He loves just being outside wandering around, so it was a great time for him.
