I’m linking this post up with Darci of The Good Life Blog
for her Easter Basket Blog Hop!
This was Rowen’s Easter basket last year. It was mostly filled with simple things to
entertain her, nothing much. You see, back
then she hadn’t really grown into any “obessions”,
but this year however, a lot has changed!
Little Miss Rowen is currently obsessed with one thing and one thing
only…princesses! If you ask her who her
favorite princess is she’ll tell you it’s Ariel from the Little Mermaid! (Random side note: Never in a million years did I think I'd end up with a daugther who loves all things girly as much as she does! When I was a kid it was all Ninja Turtles, Power Rangers and sports - sorry mom). Anyway, with that being said, here is what I came up
with for Rowen's basket this year…
I don’t have it all put together yet, but this is the basket
I plan to use. I picked up two (one for Rowie and one for baby boy) on a recent IKEA trip...just $4/each! I love the
size and the fun colors – perfect for this Easter and hopefully many Easters to
come!
Inside this year’s basket you’ll find…
1/ These adorable princess tees Rowen has outgrown most of her t-shirts from
last spring/summer so these will get quite a bit of use, I’m sure!
2/ The Disney Princess Water Show Ariel Fashion Doll – This is
her “big” gift. It’s absolutely not needed, but I couldn’t pass
up the price on Amazon and it’ll make bath time much more fun!
3/ This Flatware Set by ZAK Designs! I LOVE this brand of utensils - it’s all
Ro uses at mealtime! They are perfect for little
toddler hands, easily wash up in the dishwasher, and come in cute colors and
designs (Jake and the Neverland Pirates
are another of her favorites)!
4/ This book, which I have heard is a great lesson that
connects with the true meaning of Easter!
6/ Bubble Stick – OK, I must confess this is only in her
basket because I cannot stand blowing bubbles.
Bubbles to me are like a small form of torture - they’re sticky, messy and just plain
annoying, but Rowen loves them. So when I found this little contraption that lets her make her
own bubbles with the push of a button, I had to buy it!
That’s about it! I
cannot wait for Rowen to see her basket Sunday morning!
We've decided not to do the whole “oh look, the Easter
bunny brought you a basket” thing.
Reason being, quite frankly I think it’s weird and just confuses her more
about the true meaning of Easter. Instead, we plan tell her it's from mom and dad because we love her!
We're also thinking about doing the same with Santa this year, too. We’ll see…
Anyway, I hope everyone
has a wonderful Easter holiday!
