Water Fight on the Trampoline!

Fun in the Sun with the WATER!



Bird Seed & Flowers

I wish we still had our tree...we LOVE keeping the birds well fed for our cats! We settled for hanging the bird feeder off of our patio. Maybe the birds will come! We also planted pink & purple flowers. Spring is here!




Good Morning

Kyle at the Park

Happy Easter Morning!

This Easter was more like Christmas! There was so many boxes to open, candy bags to tear into, and treasures to play with with! Thank you Grandma Linda for the painting projects and tooth brushes-your gift is AWESOME! Thank you Grandma Jane and Papa for the BUNNY bags-O-candy and the outfits! Melanie likes using the BUNNIES as puppets-very CUTE! Thank you Nana Sylvia and Papa Paul for the bag-o-RingPops! Kyle was even more popular with his friends when they saw those! LOL! The Easter Bunny brought Kyle a new MP3 player, one that plays videos as well as music! Since he has an upgrade, his old RCA mini MP3 was kindly given to Melanie! Her songs include Eye of the Tiger, YMCA, Old McDonald Had a Farm, Baa Baa Black Sheep, Ice Ice Baby, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and a few others! They've been sharing the MP3 for a while now and both are THRILLED to have their very own! And for Melanie, the Easter Bunny brought a Dora Whistle that can blow BUBBLES!!! She is ADDICTED to the whistle! Eater Saturday was a GREAT morning!

Play Date with Kate & Lauren

We went to Lori's house for a play date. We had a good time. We went for a walk to feed the horses-which Melanie has now become a little afraid of. I wan't expecting that! LOL! She wanted to pet them, but didn't want to feed them. Then we continued our walk to the park and played! After we walked back to Lori's house teh girls dressed up for their mid morning Tea Party. They must have just been parched from thier late morning walk! LOL! This is the first time Melanie wanted to put on a Princess dress. She looks stunning! So does Kate-that color dress is just PERFECT on her!

Laugh or Cry? I Can't Decide!

"Buckets of FUN" with Melanie & Kate!

Check Out Melanie's COOL Sandles!

I bought these at a thrift store for $2.42-they're brand NEW! And they're DORA! They are full of color & sparkle just like Melanie! She LOVES them!

"I want ROJO!"

It's starting to get WARM outside-consistently! I've started to keep a stock of popsicles. I asked Melanie "What color popsicle do you want?" Her response was "I want ROJO!" She is starting to speak more & more Spanish. I can't beleive how much she's picking up! It's wonderful!
A few days ago, she was stuck on my bed and yelled " Mama, AYUDEME!" Translation-"HELP ME!"
This Summer, I'm really going to work with her on learning Spanish. Maybe the rest of us will pick up a few things too!
