A Special X-mas Gift!

My Very First Doll House
This was a very special Christmas gift that my Daddy picked out just for me! Mommy said he was very excited to give me my very first doll house.

It is so neat! This is the table and here are the chairs.
James enjoyed playing with my doll house too!
"Amelia...Amelia, I see you!"



Thanks Daddy for my very own doll house!

I luv it very, very much!

A "Froot Loop" Rainbow

This week we are discovering one of nature's beauty, the rainbow.

It takes a steady hand!
I worked very hard to place the correct colored Froot Loop on this picture of a rainbow.

After I ate a rainbow for lunch, this was a tasty snack/masterpiece that I finished later that day!
I really enjoyed smelling this fruity rainbow!
Now, can I eat it Mommy?!?

Muffin Tin Monday 3/2/09

Muffin Tin Monday:
EATING A RAINBOW

Today's muffin tin lunch was so much fun to eat! Thanks to Heather for her suggested theme, we had a blast discovering all of the colors that make up a rainbow and then we ate them!
Books that we read:
What Makes a Rainbow? By: Beth Ann Schwartz
Everything You Should Know About Weather By: ??
Today's Menu:
Red- dried cranberries (big hit!)
Orange- mandarin oranges and chicken nuggets
Yellow- corn
Green- green beans and peas
Blue- Blueberries (of course!)
Purple- Grape Jell-O

"I give eating a rainbow a thumbs up!"
This is one of my absolute favorite books. I love the cleverness of the "magic ribbons" that move from page to page creating a beautiful rainbow at the end. The text is simple and sweet. If you do not own a copy, I highly recommend getting one!
Here's a little preview of this awesome book!



The End!











Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!!!

Today is Dr. Seuss's 105th Birthday!
Wow that is pretty old, huh?
To celebrate Dr. Seuss's birthday we honored it by making our very own Cat in the Hat hats.
First, I painted a couple pieces of white paper red using some pretty nifty painting gadgets. (Really Mommy, did you have to take my picture wearing this ridiculous teal shirt?)
After the paint had dried, mommy cut them into strips. Then, I carefully made a line of glue on Mommy's guidelines that she drew on a piece of white paper.Next, I placed the red strips of paper. (I made two of these, one for me and one for my baby sister.) Then, Mommy added a black strip of paper at the bottom and stapled a long piece that wrapped around our head, and...

here we are the Cat in the Hat!

This is one of our favorite Dr. Seuss books. We read it every time we take our baths. We have one hardcover version of this fun book and one especially made for the bathtub!

Now, where were we???

Thanks for all of the wonderful stories you told,
we sure will enjoy them even when we're old!

Happy 1st Birthday Ryan!

The "Kiddie Table" plus one!


"Happy Birthday Dear Ryan..."
Wow! That's all that needs to be said!
Ryan's Mommy made a delicious cake that went with the "Under the Sea" theme. From the cake to the decorations and beach balls to the fun craft activities, we had a nice taste a warm summer day at the beach.
We hope your very first birthday was a day to remember!
