Food in Plastic Eggs!

Elsie enjoyed the magic of an Easter egg hunt with plastic eggs filled with marshmellows, crackers, and gummy goodness. Thanks to grandma and grandpa no nutritional value was found in any on the eggs ... which led to extreme hyperactivity followed by a prolonged nap, refusal to eat nutritious food, some unexpected crabbiness and an early bedtime. But it was still a great day.





Elsie eyes up her competition. Cousin Gabe didn't have much of a chance with Elsie on the loose. Once she learned food was inside the eggs any concept of sharing went out the window.


Feeding Time

Elsie surprised us again. We took a trip to the baby farm animals at the MN Zoo and enjoyed watching Elsie go crazy for the goats. Turns out she LOVES feeding goats. I thought our (at times) nervous nelly would be a little leery of an aggressive, odd animal licking from her hand, but nope, she got a big kick out of it.
