Wraps and Hats

Tonight Alexis put on a fashion show before bedtime. She tried on some of the things that Gramma Debi made for her. She had a hard time deciding how best to wear some of the items...


You can wear it as a scarf...

Or a hat!

As a lion's mane...

Or another type of hat...

Or as a wrap!

Check out the Russian hat!

Day Off

Alexis and I took a day off on Tuesday, and we had some of the aunts and cousins over for lunch.

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter!!
The Easter bunny came to our house last night!

The Easter bunny brought Alexis an elephant watering can... She loves it, and maybe the flowers will have a better chance this summer with her on watering duty... the Fornero house is where all good plants come to die.

The Easter bunny hid lots of eggs!

Elmo and the bunny conspired to hide eggs from Alexis...

The frog puppet was in on it, too...

Look at all of the eggs that Alexis found!

Pretty Easter dress

Alexis, Johnny and Kylie in their Easter best...

There was a lot of hugging going on at our Easter brunch...

A pair of birthdays...

Today is Mommy's birthday and Daddy's birthday!! Which means that I got to help open gifts! Exciting! It is also their 5 year anniversary. They told me that it felt like five minutes... underwater. :-)
Hmmmm I don't get it...

Here I am trying out Daddy's new stability disks...
They are fun to stand on... a little wobbly...

And fun to sit on!

We also colored Easter eggs...
The Easter bunny will come tonight to hide them for me!
We didn't go to see the Easter bunny this year, because Mommy says that his giant scary buck teeth and huge freaky plastic eyes will give me nightmares.

I am very good at plopping the eggs into the dye...
I only broke half a dozen!

Not too dirty! Would you expect anything else from me?

Some random shots from this week...

Today Alexis prepared for Easter by decorating the Easter Tree...

Notice how there are 30 branches but she only uses 2 of them?

The BooBoo Bunny... all parents should get one of these. This thing can heal a broken arm. All injury related crying comes to an immediate stop when the BooBoo Bunny appears!

Look at the gypsy! Alexis was trying on some old scarves that we found. She looks perplexed... so am I... where did those things come from??! And why did I keep them?

Spring has Sprung

Spring HAD sprung, for about two days... and now it is cold again. But we managed to enjoy the nice weather for a few days, at least.

Riding to the park in the wagon...

Swinging is Alexis' favorite thing to do at the park...

Hands in the pockets, ALWAYS...

Last weekend we went to visit our friend Anna and her brand new puppy, Deli!

Visit from my Aunt!

Thank you for coming to visit me, Aunt Joclyn!!
Love you! XOXOXOXOXOXOX
