Easter Party and Mommy's "ha-doo cake"

It is not very often which Easter weekend falls within just a few days of my birthday, but this year it did. Being that Nico's school was closed for Good Friday, the class Easter Party and egg hunt were scheduled for yesterday, which was actually my birthday. However, the egg hunt ended up being canceled due to the rain we got that morning, but the kids still had a chance to find eggs around the school with their class before the parents arrived. The Easter Party was cute and I am glad both Daddy and I had the chance to go and be there for Nico. The little ones ate quite a bit of food, and believe it or not it was all healthy; they also sang songs and just enjoyed having their parents at school with them.







After Nico's Easter Party, we came home for a little birthday celebration. Of course, this was before the adult birthday celebration where Ed treated me to martinis, sushi and a new Coach purse....what an awesome evening I had.
Back to Nico.....Lately Nico has gotten very excited whenever he hears about birthdays, see balloons, cake or anything else that could be related to any birthday type of event. He has his own version of singing Happy Birthday and automatically exclaims, "My Ha-doo cake!" when he hears the B word. After lots of explanation, Nico finally understood and was ok with the idea of Mommy having a birthday too...as long as he got some cake! On top of eating cake, he particularly enjoyed blowing and re-blowing out the candles. Here is a video and a couple of pictures of birthday cake time.
