Easter's on Its Way

I can tell because I have been to two Easter egg hunts already, and I think Mommy said there is one or two more. 

I got back from Virginia yesterday.  The plane take-offs and landings were a little bumpy which I didn't like, but I had a super time with Nana, Poppy, Uncle Jim, Aunt Liz, and Bridget.  I went to the Easter egg hunt in Bridget's neighborhood and found the golden egg!  I saw a fife and drum parade at Colonial Williamsburg. I LOVED it because I want to be a drummer some day.  We also went to Jamestown to see the ships and villages from a long time ago.  We did some other fun stuff, too.  I will show some pictures soon.

Before we left for Virginia, we had a crayon party here to make new fun-shaped crayons out of old crayons.  We made the new crayons for Crayons for Cancer (www.crayonsforcancer.org) which raises money for the kids like Jamie who have cancer and go to the same hospital she went to.  I like using the "crayon slicer".  Don't worry; it was safe for even a 2 (almost 3) year old.

Spring is Coming

Just a quick update to show a little of what I've been up to the last couple of weeks.  The pictures show me decorating our window with some St. Patty's Day decorations, planting some seeds, and playing dress-up with a big roll of foam.  Being almost three is grand.

March It Is










We got back last evening from a fun weekend in Delaware celebrating Uncle Chet's 40th birthday! Great to see my cousins and grandparents, too! We even went bowling.

Potty training continues to go well. I'm pretty good at telling Mommy or Daddy, "I gotta go!" just like Grover in a book we borrowed from the library.

Mommy and I stay busy during the day doing crafts, chores, playing in or outside, going to the library or to play dates, etc. We went to "Bounce Town" last week with a couple friends. I liked watching the kids (and Mommy) go down the huge inflatable slides, but I preferred running around the carpeted floor, sitting on the inflatable fish, and at then end bouncing in the castle. I'm looking forward to spring to be outside more. I've been dribbling the soccer ball in the front yard lately, and it's a lot of fun.

We will miss watching the Olympics, but we did manage to have a picnic dinner in the den while watching the Olympics one night.
