Pretty Kitty

The clown at Chick-fil-A turned Elisha into a pretty kitty (her request) and made her a mouse out of a balloon. Elisha was thrilled!

Easter & April 2010

We had quite an eventful weekend. On Friday we went as a family to the Easter celebration at the church where the kids attend preschool. Our friends, the Vicks met us there. There was a petting zoo, egg hunts, inflatable jumping fun, spin art, and sand art. It was a beautiful day and fun was had by all.

On Easter Sunday I dressed the kids up, even though we didn't attend a traditional Easter service. We took some pictures in the yard before house church in the evening.

Elisha got to hold our little buddy Thomas.  He's Eric and Heather's son; we all lived together before he was born.  Doesn't he look handsome in his little suit (a hand-me-down from Micah and the Newton boys).

Just for fun, our house church group had an egg hunt for the kiddos, too. Monday morning Elisha and I opened an Easter gift from Great Grandmom Bagosy. Like I said, it was quite the eventful Easter weekend - so much so that we never dyed the dozen eggs I boiled - oops!

March 2010

March = painting, weather warm enough for time at the park, the tub trio again, and a stupendous new sandbox from Oma and Opa.

Teddy Bear Tea

Nana took Elisha, cousin Norah and Hosanna to a Teddy Bear Tea at the Baron York in north GA. Elisha felt like such a big girl and really enjoyed the teddy cookies with mini m&m eyes and drinking out of a real tea cup (complete with raised pinkie).

February 2010

Sometimes it is fun to dress up in army pants and a heart necklace with a pink princess sweatshirt. It's also fun to dog pile Daddy! And reading books together always makes for a lot of fun. February = fun, fun, fun!

Circus

February - We had an amazing opportunity to go to the circus, Barnam & Bailey 3 Ring Circus with our dear friends, the Vicks. This was the first time I took Micah and Elisha downtown to something like this and the first time I did something with the two of them without Hosanna since her birth. Elisha talked most about the elephants.

Little Teacher

When I picked Elisha up from preschool on Friday, this is the story I got from her teacher, Rhonda:
They went to music class and just like Rhonda normally does Elisha told all the kids to sit with their backs on the wall.  One kid, Sean, wasn't obeying, so Elisha said, "Sean, you must sit with your back on the wall.  If you don't obey, you'll sit in time out."  She even used her little pointer finger.  Then she counted each child by touching his/her head.  Rhonda and Sarah, the class aide, thought this was so funny, they had a hard time telling the story without laughing.  Rhonda said something about knowing that imitating teachers and moms was very normal, especially for little girls, but doing so at 2 years old is a little early.  It makes me wonder what she's going to be like at 5...
