You could have them decorate cookies or a cupcake for an activity too.

We are getting ready for Easter here. There is an egg hunt next week at the park for the little ones. It should be really fun along with the pancake breakfast they are serving.

Anyone doing anything special for Easter?

And thanks to everyone for all the great ideas for Kelcee's bday party. Anyone for hire????

Just Sharing

Just thought I would share a recent picture of Kelcee. Anyone else have some new photos they want to share? I love seeing how much the children are changing.

It's been awhile so I thought I would check in and see if there is anything new going on?

We are getting ready for a quick trip to AZ for my friends graduation from culinary school and that should be fun.

The weather here has been really hot this weekend. In the 90's. I am so not ready for that!

Kelcee turns three in a month and I am hating it. I never thought the time would go by so quickly. And she ages out on bday with speech therapy. That has been a godsend for her. She is just talking up a storm.

All your babies are adorable. Denice I know they grow up so fast dont they. I made a movie with my dd pictures as she grows up for family. I choose a song and wrote a poem that goes with the song, which is how I feel about her. I cried and cried see her grow up. I remeber the day the solcial worker dropped her off.

A new fun thing she is doing. When Nayomi hears me taking a shower, she runs to the bathroom open the door. Then I hear her working hard on taking off her clothes. Then I see toys flying in. Then the curtain starts to move. I then see one little leg coming in and then her other leg. She says hi mommy. She sits and pushes the plug down. She then asks for bubbles, so I have to wash my hair, it doesnt matter that I already washed it, so she can have bubbles. Then we sing songs. Then I get out and turn off the water and she stays in a little longer. I treasure those moments. Its just so special. I know soon she will be to big to take a shower with me, so I am enjoying it now.

My little one is so predictable. Every morning when she hears the water turned off, she knows I've finish with my shower, she runs into the bathroom, pulls the curtain open and yells: " Maaa-mmaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!" - Every single time.
