This year I decided not to give the older kids individual Easter baskets. Instead I made yummy snack mix on a tray with their favorite Easter foods. I chose to use an oval shaped serving tray to look like an egg, but you can use any shape serving tray.
This pretty girl in now 20 months old.
Kiss the Frog!
She loves being outside and running around.

I love the location that we chose with the white gazebo, lake, and pink tree blossoms with her pink and white dress.
Baby belly photos are my favorite!
Love these kids!

I place beans, pom poms, tablespoons, and measuring cups in a tub. She loves scooping, dumping, and pouring from cup to cup and back and forth.
I placed pom poms in a wisk so that she could pull them out and place them into an empty tissue box.
Then we taped an empty paper towel tube to the wall so that she could drop the pom poms down the tube.
I placed pipe cleaners in a strainer. She could pull them out one by one.
The kids colored a box and my son tied his rope to one end of the box. Then he gave Baby Girl a ride though the house.

Little Miss is becoming such a beautiful girl. One of my favorite Princesses this month… Rapunzel from the Disney movie Tangled.
Her tiny cast iron skillet with the sun star painted on it was a great prop for today.
Giant scissors and some cut blond hair on the floor! She loves to stroke my hair whenever I hold her, she also twirls her own hair while she falls to sleep.
Still needs to put everything in the mouth!
Rapunzel 6 months old & 18 months old
