Easter

Jesse has been battling the flu the last couple of days, so we haven't been out much. This morning he felt a bit better, so I wanted to drag everyone to Ikea...but when we got there we discovered it was closed...then even the Loblaws that is always open was closed... but then we went for dim sum to cheer us up!...and then Violet threw up all over her bed when we got home.
Not sure if she's getting sick, or ate too much dim sum, or maybe it was the entire chocolate bunny she ate this morning. Whatever the cause, I'm stuck in a house with the sick and whining and have no food.
In other news:
We dyed some Easter eggs on Friday. Violet was disappointed to discover that they were still the same old boiled egg flavour on the inside, despite looking like candy.

Violet's really been into singing songs lately. When she sings, she's really into it - belting it out with her eyes closed and her whole body swaying. I took this photo as she was leaving with Oma to go to her playgroup. She looked so cute with this hat on.It took four days, but I finally got a good picture of Jem's goofy teeth. It looks like there might be another tooth coming in the middle too (those poor little gums!). In that case, he'll go from the vampire to a more of a hillbilly look.

So cute! Just wait until Violet's turn to get disapointed by that Ukrainian special occasion bread with the promising sprinkles on top, but nothing but stale tasting bread inside :( Nad, you remember what I'm talking about? Always at easter for some reason...

Yes! Why is that bread (called babka) always stale? It must be some lesson in hardship or something.
