Ugh MIL Insists "the easter bunny comes"?

I need help! My baby is 10 weeks old and last night my MIL kept insisting that we need to get an easter basket for him. We were not going to do easter this year since he's so young. My question is if we do get him one what do you even give a 10 week old? Am i the crazy one for not wanting to do it? Is it normal to get an Easter Basket for a baby this old? Is the easter bunny coming for any of your babies?!

    My son is 3. This is his 4th Easter. This is the first Easter we are doing a basket. I don't see the point when they are so little. We aren't doing anything for my DS2. He is 3 months old. He doesn't care. It's your money & your baby, do what you w

    I think you should do whatever you're comfortable with.  DS's first Easter we did not do an Easter basket for him, but my parents did.

    We will be doing a basket for DD, but that's really because DS is probably going to wonder where hers is

    We don't celebrate Easter so I'm not doin anything for him. I do know my mil sent my husband a text asking him if she could get the baby an Easter basket and he said he didn't care as long as she wasn't taking him to church or something. Toys and candy. H

    I got DH an Easter basket just because I was excited! I got him sunglasses, a sleeper, an Easter book about animals, A small stuffed bunny, a CD of children's songs, and Monsters Inc. because I am getting him a Disney movie for every big holiday.

    I'm not doing it. Don't see the point. I'll probably try to get a good photo or two of him near some decorated fake eggs.

    DS is 2 and this will be his 3rd Easter.  We still aren't doing a basket for him, although we are going to take him to the neighbourhood Easter egg hunt.  I think next year we will do a basket for him.

    We got her some books, two rattles , a bib, a hoodie, and ... I think there's something else. We may have gone overboard for our 18 month old though :/.
