Happy Easter!

We tried something new this morning. We dyed eggs with onion skins and a little bit of food coloring.

Eva picked some flowers and leaves from the backyard to make imprints.

In the pot with water and a bit of vinegar.

Lamb shank. Merci Barry!! 

Eva collected 17 eggs!! Some were hiding in the Penstemons, other in the Yucca plants. 

And we made a Pissaladiere from our 6 peeled onions. 

That was a great day. And Eva's favorite part was Grandma's visit!! She even made necklaces for the three of us. Thank you Eva, you are the best!!

Eva is having so much fun there. The past three weeks, she has been mostly doing the class by herself without Mommy's help. Yay!

Eva's Camp Out

This picture above was taken by Eva. She was very proud of her sleep-over in the backyard. She decorated her little house, ate her snack and pretended sleeping in her tent. 

We have been doing the sleep training for the past 2 weeks exactly today. It has been very emotionally draining. Lots of crying and kicking the first week. Eva is still getting up in the middle of the night to get into Mommy and Daddy's bed. Now, she goes back to sleep on her own bed without fuss as long as we hold her hand. Daddy is getting a self-inflated pad to sleep on Eva's bedroom floor today.  Mommy and Daddy will take turn to keep Eva's company until she completes her whole night without waking. Way to go, Eva! Way to go, Mom and Dad! and Simone!! 

Shush Baby, go to sleep! It is ok!
