Easter Fun

Me and my two wonderful kids.

We had a wonderful Easter. It was filled with family, love and of course the easter bunny. Grandma Angies was the place to be this year. Thats where the Easter Bunny came and hid their baskets, filled with goodies. The kids, then had to find them. We also did one of our favorite pastimes, coloring the eggs. I don't have pictures of this because I lost my phone, that had the pictures on it. But thats another story. We always had a huge Easter Egg Hunt in the backyard when we were little, so thats what we did. Once we got back into town Grandma and Grandpa Bird had an Easter Egg hunt for them too. We had a wonderful Easter journey. Thank goodness for families because holidays wouldn't be the same without them :P

Skylee's 2nd Birthday

My little Skylee is Two! I can't even believe it!

We had a great birthday party.

Thanks to everyone who came :)

It was such a warm and beautiful day

The kids had so much fun playing outside.

This was Skylee's new toy from Daddy.

Teigan, being the big brother that he is, had to try it out for her first. He was showing us his skills :)

Happy Birthday Skylee. We love you.

Double Dosage

Skylee has had a fever, yucky cough, and runny nose since yesterday. Last night we gave her tylenol. This morning I decided to give her Motin cuz it lasts longer. Not thinking I gave her the Tylenol dosage and not the Motrin dosage. Therfore I overdosed my child. As soon as I gave her the medicine I realized what I had done. I started to panic and called the pharmacy and her doctor and the poison control. Luckily they said it wasn't toxic and she was going to be ok. Thank goodness! They told me to just skip the next dosage and she was going to be fine. What a scare! That was a first for me.

Savings at Albertsons

So I'm trying to do better with this whole coupon thing. I have to brag a little bit because I have never spent so little and gotten so much! I went to Albertsons last night and only spent $11.32 and this is what I got:
10 Boxes of cereal!!
Seedless Grapes
and a Bag of Salad
THe thing is I didn't even have any coupons! Post Cereal at Albertsons was ONLY .67 cents! You have to buy 5 at a time, pay for it, and then you get a $5 coupon. I didn't know it was so easy to save. Happy Savings :)

Boating in March!!

I can Not Believe these two! I know that we are all itchin to get in the water, but for cryin out loud its March!! It's still 50 degrees outside! The lakes not even open yet! They had to go to the river.

This was the first time they went out, March 18.

Yeah! Go honey! Don't freeze your BUTT Off!

So far they have gone 3 times already. The 2nd and 3rd time was Friday, March 27 and Saturday 28. I still can't Believe them. Nate wanted me to come out on Saturday with him, but I told him I can wait 2 more weeks for the lake to open. Then I would consider it :)

Letter H

Letter H Holes Holes Holes. Holes for H.

Practicing makes Perfect.

Word Search

H Song: Hickory Dickory Dock. There is twelve verses to this song. Each verse for a number on the clock. I took a picture of it because it was way to long to put on here, so hopefully you can read it.

We also talke about Healthy foods, and Hippopotamus.

Letter G

Letter G- we Glued Gold Glitter on the paper, with some other Glitter Glue colors.
These pages are Teigan's favorite. He likes to find the letters, and then the words.

This was a busy week, so we didn't do much with this letter ;)

New Baby Headbands and Bows for Sell

These headbands can have the bow attached to the headband, or they can be atached to an alligator clip. I have many more options and colors. Let me know if your interested. :)

My Dog has Worms!!

Oh my gosh! I don't even know where to start. Yesterday Dixie (our dog) started gagging (out of no where) last night. I hurried her outside and she was fine. No biggie.
Til tonight! All of a sudden I heard some weird noises and she was gagging again. Unfortunatly, I did not get her out the door fast enough. SO here I am cleaning up this mess and SOMETHING MOVES!! I was ok until I saw that! Nate had to take over for a minute to get rid of it. It was a long skinny worm wiggling around. It just freaked me out. Ii think that was the Grossest thing I have ever seen. Just wanted share that with you all!! Happy Day.

Letter F

Letter F

We glued Froot Loops onto Letter F

This was a Fun activity.

Teigan found all the F's and circled them.

Then I had him find the Four words that started with F and circle them.

The F Song

"Five Little Speckled Frogs"

Five little speckled Frogs,

Sitting on a speckled log

Eating the most delicious flies.

One jumped into the pool,

Where it was nice and cool.

Now there are Four speckled frogs.

Repeat (until you have No speckled frogs.)

Letter E

Letter EThis week (meaning last week) we talked about Eyes, Ears, and Elephants.

We also went to some very Exciting Events. Sugar's, Girls State Basketball Games. Which they Won State!) The Boys District Basketball Games. (which they are going to State!) We also got to see Tiara perform and Cheer at all the games and we also saw Corbin play his basketball game. What a fun week we had.

Letter E Song

Do your Ears hang low?

Do they wobble to and fro

Can you tie them in a knot

Cab you tie them in a bow

Can you throw them over your shoulder

like a continental soldier

Do your Ears hang low?

Letter C & D

Wow! Where do my days go? I just can't keep up.

Letter C

We colored our letter and painted with Celery and Carrot

We also made Cookies and Cinnamon Cake

We talked about Caterpillars and made one. We also read the book : "A Very Hungry Caterpillar".

Letter C has two sounds. Soft C: celery and cinnamon and Hard C: carrot, cookies, and cake.

Here is a song for letter C "My Daddy Drives a Rusty Car"


Twinkle Twinkle chocolate bar
My Daddy drives a rusty car
Push the starter and pull the choke
And off we go in a cloud of smoke
Twinkle Twinkle chocolate bar
My daddy drives a rusty car


Each line has a C word. So I printed it and had Teigan circle the C word in each line.

Letter D

We punched out dots and glued them on to our letter D

Letter D Song

Doc Doggy's Dinosaur and Duck
They love to play all day
For words that start with D
The people run to see!
Words like Doc Doggy's Dinosaur and Duck
D D D D D D D

HeartMobile

Snowmobiling on Valentine's Day. Nate took me and the kids up to Cascade to snowmobile for the day. It was so much fun. First thing Teigan said when he was woke up was "Mom is it morning? Is the sun up? Can we go snowmobiling?" I think he was more excited than I was. Once we got there and Nate rode the sleds out of the trailer, all Skylee could say was "Daddy's Bike, Daddy's Bike". I was worrried about the kids freezing but it was such a beautiful day. We had borrowed the trailer and one of the snomobiles from one of our friends. Thanks to them, we all got to go and not freeze. It was so Great to spend the whole day with my cute little family. We even went out to dinner with kids. It couldn't have been a better Valentine's Day. Thanks Honey.

Potty, Pullups, and Panties

SKylee has been doing so good, going in her little potty. So we decided to get her some pullups and some underware. Funny story about the underware. She had found Teigan's padded training underware and his plastic covers and she wanted them on. So picture this. Skylee in size 3T (Big and Saggin) blue boy underware with not only one but two of the plastic covers on top of the underware. It was pretty funny!
Anyways today I put the pullups on her and she was so Excited! She was running around in cirlces pointing at her ner "Big Girl Underware"

I was so excited that they were Pink! and not Blue!
