Easter

V. in her Easter dress! She looks so cute! I did her hair in a bun on the side in the back. She is looking so grown up. I can't believe it!

We had a nice time at church in the morning. The children learned about Christ's life in primary.

I don't know what the adults talked about because I work in the primary with the kids!

We don't have the Easter bunny bring anything, but we got V. a chocolate bunny and a little bit of candy. That's how we did it when I was growing up. I don't want V. to think Easter is just about getting candy....I'd like her to know we celebrate Easter to celebrate Christ's resurrection.

Anyway, we had an egg hunt at Steve's parents house on Saturday. And Sunday after church we went to my parents for an egg hunt and bar-b-que. So it's been a fun weekend with family and I'm so glad we have had sunshine to enjoy!

I hope everyone had a good Easter and remembered to thank the Lord for sending his Son!

A toddlers logic

So this morning we were hanging out downstairs and Steve got up and starting heading for the stairs. V. jumped up and ran in front of him and starting heading up the stairs. " Where are you going?" Steve asked. V.-" I'm going upstairs." Steve- " Why?" V.- " Because YOU are following ME!" ......................what? I guess him following her is a good enough reason to head upstairs...

I've entered a giveaway!

Okay, by blogging about this giveaway I get two extra entries. I would love to win! I found this new site called Gourmet Mom on-the-go,(http://www.gourmetmomonthego.com/) I haven't checked it out a whole lot, but it looks like she has great ideas for cooking and baking. Check out her Chick-Chick Cupcakes, they are so cute!
Anyway, she has joined with Naturally Nora Baking Mixes to give away a year supply of all natural cake mixes and frosting. They are made with All-natural ingredients,NO artificial colors, flavors or preservatives,NO hydrogenated oils or trans fats, and of couse Lots of Love! How great does that sound? I was told you can find them on Amazon, if I don't win I might order some...

My multi-tasking daughter

So last night, we reach bedtime. I told V. to go potty, say her bedtime prayers and hop into bed and that I'll be there in a minute to tuck her in and such. "Okay", she says, and runs off to do what I told her to do.

I walk past the bathroom and glance in, I see her sitting on the potty, swinging her legs, head down and eyes closed saying, "Heavwey Fawder, tink you for my blessins', tink you I sleep good..." I stop, look at Steve and say,'Is she saying her bedtime prayers while going potty?' "Looks like it", is his reply.

So I get her her juice and then go to her room to tuck her in and give her a goodnight kiss. She slept great!

She's a little multi-tasker!
