The Easter Bunny' hopped by today

 

This is my 'I am listening' look. Convincing, huh?

 

Hi Ho, Hi Ho...its off to work I go.

 

Can I get this egg without getting my hands dirty?

 

I am digging opening up my eggs...more surprises inside. Don't tell mama, but I found some dollars in 3 of my eggs. 'Born to Shop'


We had a fun day today...after Bellas lunch and nap today, we were off to another egg hunt. She is starting to get the hang of this activity, walks looking down at her feet. After the hunt, we had snacks with a cookout for everyone attending. Then it was off to Wal Mart. Bella was in back seat chanting, 'Wal Mart', 'Wal Mart', 'Wal Mart'. I got her a new Sesame Street DVD. She was watching and the scene changed, (one without ELMO). Bella turned around, looked at me, and asked 'where Elmo go'? What is it about the little bug eyed, red thing. lol

Bella has been doing the 'Tumblebus' for the last couple months...and tonight...she did her first tumble without any assistance. She bent over, put her head on the floor, pushed off and did a forward roll. She was so excited.

Here comes 'Bella' cottentail.....with new phrases!!!

 

Bella's 'first' egg hunt at school last Thursday.

 

When Bella figured out that there were 'goodies' inside, she was all about just getting the treats out.

What a fun time we had at Bella's Easter party at school on Thursday. Keith got to watch the inside party via webcam and got to see the 'food' part. There were cheetos, cookies, and jucie. Then it was off to search for the 'special' eggs. It was a mad dash....Bella picked up 1 egg and put it in her basket...then picked up a second, it came open, and the 'treat' was exposed. She sat her basket down, with the 1 egg inside and started putting the other egg together and taking it apart.....over and over.....Caden came and took her lone egg....and Hannah came over and just 'took' the basket...too funny! We are going to another egg hunt today and will do a hunt here at the house tomorrow.

We have some new words and phrases: I stinky, I hear you, I mad, she will flip the page of her coloring book and say-other side, calls her animal encyclopedia-the animal book. And we are now working on counting from 1-20.

We Can Count to 10?

So, Keith, Bella, and I were eating dinner last night. 'Wo Wo Wuzby' playing in the background and just idle chatter going on and we hear from Bella.......6, 7, 8, 9, 10......Keith and I just looked at each other. What did we hear? We have been counting with Bella from 1-3. We looked at Bella and she did it again. We started at the beginning, 1, 2, 3,......and she went all the way to 10. Not just once, but several times. When I figure out how to get the action from the camcorder to the blog, I will share. Such an amazing little girl! And kudos to her school for bringing on the 'learning'. I can't be there all the time, but, when I am not, they are!!
