We are STILL reading "KATY" .... Baby B loves this book..
Well, when we got here to Gramma's.....
We have been able to see all sorts of things we do not have at home..
(Sigh) ok, we have decided to make our own bread around here...and that has turned out to be really great....we make bread in the morning and we have warm bread by lunch. The kids love it!!! Well, today I accidentally knocked off 1/2 dozen eggs onto the kitchen floor..and..(flinching) a BAD WORD SLIPPED OUT..(sh!%)....I froze...took a deep breath and started to clean the egg yokes off of my floor...when Baby B says, "Shucky darn momma" with a HUGE smile on her face...She knew I had cussed...(as S"hucky darn" is what she says when she wants to sass etc..).and we cleaned up the eggs...and I apologized for the "slip" of a bad word..to this she says, "Mom, we all make mistakes"...LOL What a little blessing she is : )
Today DH had to go out of town for the day, and he invited us to go along. We are reading Katy No-Pocket...it is a cute story about a mommy kangaroo...ANYWAYS
"Baby B" loves it and has told EVERYONE ALL ABOUT IT...So, we were at a gas station and dad was filing the car with gas..and we read KATY. People we staring at us...some looked right away...some giggled...and some gave us a look like they had no idea what we were doing.. She was WAY into the book....We continued to drive and read and when the book was over she insisted on counting the baby animals in the pockets (any of you who have read this book probably have HAD that very same experience)... My hubby and I were just basking in the glow of her new found excitement for learning....when we came around the corner... into what I consider one of the most beautiful places in Wyoming.... and my DH decided to quiz her...
Dad: "Honey look at the pretty mountains....they are pretty huh? "
B: "uh-huh they are"
Dad: "Who made us the mountains?"
B: proudly "Heavenly Father!"
Dad: "That's right..good job, sweetie! - Who made the animals?"
B : REAL proud "ANIMAL PLANET!!"
HA ha...it was so real and so cute...and sooooo not true....we giggled and told her that animal planet only does shows on animals. The shows teach us about animals...and then asked" Who made us the animals?"
This time she responded with..."Heavenly Father..he made us all".
I quickly grabbed a pen and paper and jotted down the quotes as not to forget them...
She is soo cute... HA HA HA
We finally got to those Sheep cupcakes...
and we bought the book The little lamb...all that hard work to make them cute..
..just a stack of cupcake papers. ..LOL..
...and she has been wearing the "bunny ears" all week...
...(like Spaghetti O's in a bunny shape) We also had bunny shaped graham crackers.
This is our finished lapbook...in it we have parts of a rabbit...baby bunny cards...handprint bunnies....Little Bunny Foo Foo rhyme book...drawn and textured flip book on our trip to the pet store..
..everyday we check it ...B says "IS IT GROWING YET MOMMY!!??!? IS it BIGGER?!?!" 
This is the recycled pickle jar that is GROWING our bunny. 
Well, we started "the little rabbit" this week....In the story..Sarah (the little girl) gets a rabbit for Easter, in her basket. The rabbit and Sarah have several adventures. It's a cute story, the pages are not illustrated, they are photographed.
It is so cute the growth I have seen in her in just a few weeks of "channeling". I mean we have always read, and colored, etc..it's just nice to feel like we are doing this with a purpose..
"Gus" looked soo handsome. He has his cute little new tie that matches his new, yellow and blue shirt. He looks like such a "boy" now. So much for keeping him a baby..LOL
"Baby B"...was so excited. She got to wear her new Easter dress and hat to church this morning...This is the first time we have not had curly hair and big bows...so the hat was really special to her. (and I still curled her hair...LOL) 
So while I was finishing my make-up, Gus got an empty cologne bottle out of the garbage, threw it, and... did a great fillet on his finger tip...man there was blood all over.. and it was a pretty good cut. We cleaned up as fast as we could and ended up being ten minutes late....I was so frustrated, between being late to church on Easter, and sitting there thinking I maybe SHOULD have taken him to the hospital...it took me a few minutes to get in line with the spirit...(sigh).. the things mom's go through on Sunday mornings...LOL
Now all cleaned up and ready to go, we snapped another picture...Happy lil kids, huh?....We do not do the Easter Bunny until after church on Easter...we put Jesus first, and "the bunny" comes while we are at church... Just think, they didn't even realize there was supposed to be "a bunny", until we got to church and other people asked them what the bunny brought...(giggle)..
