Here comes Peter Cotton Tail- Mommy and Me Monday (The 61st)
It’s time again for Mommy and Me Monday. Pop out from behind that camera and capture yourself in action with your kids. Check out the inaugural Mommy and Me Monday for more information.
Lots of rain and downpour Friday evening brought about a delayed start for soccer.
And, because of the delay we were able to head to a local park for an Easter egg hunt.
Of course, the Easter bunny was ready for pictures. Thumbs up and all!
The girls? Not so much. They wanted a picture, they didn’t want a picture.
They settled on wanting a picture with mommy (fearful grasps and all)
And, one with daddy (even more afraid!).
The funniest part of the hunt? The section we went to was for 3 and under (go ahead, tell us we are bad….but we had a soccer game to get to). The eggs were filled with teeny tiny plastic toys. And, the candy was just thrown on the dew-covered grass. Most of the candy? Bubble gum. For 3 and under. Go figure.
The weekend turned out to be much better than I expected…thank you all for your well wishes.
And, now, I guess I’d better change that “about the author” box. Because as of Sunday, this girl is no longer in the “20-something” category.
Goodbye 20s. Hello 30s! I hope they are as good as everybody says they are.
Grab the button and link up. Make some new friends and visit some old ones, too.
**There really is only one requirement here, a picture of you and your baby or babies; your children, your “baby” (ie significant other) or even your fur babies. If your picture doesn’t feature you (meaning you must be in the picture), I will have to delete your link. It’s not fair to the others that follow the rules.**
I try to make sure and visit all of you and leave some comment love. Please spread the love! And, I never mind the comments, either:)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! 🙂 Hope you have a wonderful day!!
Super cute pics with the easter bunny by the way! Love it!
Thanks Patrice. It was a pretty good day!
So cute. N looks happier with you and the Easter Bunny than she did with her daddy. Happy Birthdaay #30 to you. The 30s are a great age to be…. I thought the 40s and 50s were really good too….. but I am not so excited about the 60s. Enjoy every minute of your young age. Make many fond memories that you can treasure in your heart and look back on. Life has gone by so quickly for me. I am glad that I have so many sweet memories to keep me company now that my kiddos are are grown and gone. Happy Happy Birthday dear.
I’m trying my best to enjoy it all..they grow up way too fast and we get old way too quickly!
The pictures made Dan and I crack up! Happy birthday!!
Emily…did you and Dan see these pictures? This is sure to make you laugh! https://reallyareyouserious.com/2010/12/the-serious-girls-and-santa-psf.html
Happy birthday to YOU and so glad that the girls survived the Easter Bunny! He’s quite the intimidating guy and all… 😉
Thanks, Jessica..and yes he is! I’m not a fan of the dressed up people either.
Poor Nat looks absolutely HORRIFIED!! I feel so bad for her!! Gum for 3 and under?! Sounds like poor planning :p
Happy, happy Birthday dear Krystyn!!
Love, Mere
Promise..she wanted to do it!
And, if a wonderful college student recognizes that, don’t you think some of the parents should have said something?
Thank you for the birthday wishes.
Those are pretty shots! Better than the one we had at the mall lol..
Thanks. I’m all about finding the free Easter bunny photo ops.
nice easter photos =)
thanks for hosting!

Thanks for joining in!
The 30’s aren’t that bad. I am almost to my 40’s, having just turned 38 last week. That is making me a bit more stressed. Happy belated birthday.
I would have to say she looks a tad more terrified. Poor thing.
Blessings
Thank you! And, really, she wanted to take the picture!
So cute! We skipped our neighborhood easter egg hunt due to timing. We’ll do one when the in-laws come to town next weekend. 🙂
Just one at your house, or are you going to one?
This wasn’t our neighborhood, this was the county! Very disappointing.
Poor little girl, my kids are scared with chuck e cheese, and im sure they’re scared with bunny because they never seen one yet
Oh yes, my girls are scared of all of them. Chickfila cow, bunny, etc.
Looks like you had so much fun.
hhahaha….so cute! I can tell she’s scared. Happy birthday!!!! Don’t worry, you still look like in the 20s….:)
Well, thank you:)
first time here and became a follower instantly.
cute bunny even though it made the kids a little frighten.
i will try to hop on to other entries…
Thanks for stopping by and linking up. Hope you were bale to visit others as well!
love the bunny pictures!!!! You girls are far braver than my Kendall!!!:)
Brave? Not sure about that….Iz is much better than Nat!
Kendall won’t even go NEAR him! We went to the mall and she RAN away and I mean RAN away when we got close!!!!! It was hysterical! Ok only to me!!!!! 🙂
Who said they are good?
Silly husband confusing me!
Everybody says their 30s are good. I think it’s so they feel better about being in their 30s or older!
Hey Krystyn, Happy happy birthday! Loved your smile in the picture with happy family. Lol about your youngest who is afraid on the mascot. they do that you know, my little guy is also like that. hahaha
Thanks, girl!
Yes, I know..they are both not fans of the people as animals, but they really wanted the pictures!
Annalise gets all worked up over getting pictures with big characters like that. She gets all nervous and won’t go near them. So funny. She will let me hold her or stand with her though. Cute pictures!! and Happy Birthday!
Oh, yes, the girls totally wouldn’t have stood there without mommy and daddy, that’s for sure.
Yay! I’m so glad the weekend turned out so well. I can imagine that it is a hard milestone too.
And Happy Birthday! You will love your thirties! They really are great! 🙂
Thanks, Kat. It was and still is hard. I’m just trying to focus on and count my blessings!
Thanks! I sure hope they are.
So cute. I love Izzy’s fuzzy ears. Can’t beleive N was that paniced being in your and Mr. Serious’s arms. Remember how she just walked up to Mr. & Mrs. Claus and sat on Mrs. Claus’ lap at Thanksgiving. No fear at all.
I think there was candy involved when Mrs. Claus was paid a visit!
Oh yes, your thirties WILL be wonderful! I can tell you because I’m already more than halfway through mine. Yeesh! ;-P
Glad to know you had a good birthday!
Thanks, Elaine! I sure hope so.
Happy Birthday Krystyn!
So far I’ve enjoyed my 30s. I’m just over a year into them and they’ve been good.
We didn’t even attempt pictures with the Easter Bunny. Not only is he not our thing, but I just KNOW, after our experience with Santa, that the event would be traumatic for them.
And I was less than thrilled with our Easter Egg hunt stuff too. Stickers and temp tattoos in the eggs were fine. But gum and tootsie rolls? Really? Yeah … all her candy was quickly confiscated and she enjoyed her stickers.
Thank you!
And, we sure have some Santa pictures, too. I asked the girls and they wanted to do the shot with the bunny…and then they did their scared bit!
Seriously. I don’t get it. It’s like parents aren’t the ones filling the eggs.
Aww love the pictures with the bunny.. the fearful grasps hilarious! Bubble gum for under 3.. wow.. Happy Birthday!!
Yeah. I’ve been chewing a lot of gum this week.
That’s so sweet! Isabella won’t get near the Easter Bunny but squeals when she sees him! People don’t think when they fill those eggs!!!
The girls wanted to do it..they are silly like that!
I think parents forget too quickly…maybe that’s it?
Happy Birthday Krystyn!!! May your 30s be a blast! Glad the girls were able to hang in there to take pics with the thumbs-up Easter Bunny.
Thank you!
Isn’t the fact that he has his thumbs up a hoot?
oh poor nat in that second picture!! i just want to come and get her and tell her everything will be ok!! so sweet mama!
Pinky swear promise that she wanted to do the picture…silly goose!
wow, sounds like an interesting fill for a three and under easter egg hunt. looks like the girls had a great time anyway:)
Yes. Definitely odd choices.
Oh, poor little N… she’s not really sure she wants that scary big monster to be so close to her. I love Isabel’s bunny ears!!
She’s funny like that! But, she really wanted to be in the picture!
And, that Isabelle..I don’t know what to do with her! She’s silly:)
I almost wore my bunny ears with my Easter dress because I love them and they matched. =)
