More Granola Mess

Julia loves our homemade granola bars, she really loves licking the honey covered spoons and spatulas after we are all done.

 

To keep her busy while I mix and press the bars, I put some of the mix in the measuring cups for her to eat, it makes a nice baby beard.

I think we finally got all the honey our of her hair and off her cheeks.

Easter Bunny Prep

I decided to do a dry run with Julia Easter egg hunt outfit. I had thought of putting her in a dress but Chris said the forecast calls for colder temps. We took these right before her nap so she HAD to have her pacifier. I think she will be cute and warm. The flower on her shirt is a pin I made, it can easily be put on a coat if needed.

If you look to the left, you will see her Easter skirt, she will most likely wear that with the top on Easter Sunday. Poor kid, she was tired.

Such a big girl, she was helping comb her hair

Wild Things

Julia likes to throw her food and plate and cup and spoon...you get the point. They all end up on the floor, even with prompting to place what she doesn't need/want on the table. I found a "Where The Wild Things Are"plate at Target in the dollar section ( double score) and we tried it at lunch
Please excuse the fact that she is eating CRAP, I am not feeling well and just grabbed her some Culvers on the way home from the clinic.

She very quietly says "Woarrr" and points at the mouth of this particular Wild Thing. I was wondering if the plate would freak her out but she loves it.

She loves it so much that she wanted the food off that particular section so she can look at it. Note that her wide eyes are assisting her in shoveling food into her mouth.

OOOOOH, Wild Things!

We dedicate this post to Auntie Jaci. She love the Wild Things too.

Don't forget your boots

 "Something just doesn't seem right here"

We went for a walk today so Julia could practice using her tricycle, I carried it most of the time and ended up running back to the house to drop it off. We came across 2 dead squirrels on our walk and said "ewwh". For the majority of the walk Julia said "ewwh" I got a voice file of it but no video, I can't get the voice file to post :(

 The Ladies. Julia is sporting her new helmet. Yes, it is big but the smallest you can find in stores is for 3 years plus. It fits her well enough.

Just to be safe, we can leave the helmet on while you walk.

Last but not least, the reason I should have grabbed her boots when returning her trike to the house:

Sidenote: she wasn't wearing her boots because I thought it would be difficult for her to pedal in them. Oh well, she had fun and I kept telling her she was going to get swamp foot.

All about the Food...

 Chilling in her bedroom eating some tasty Annies Crackers

Ice Cream cone from Auntie Jaci

We made granola bars

Julia tested them out for us in her newly created "snack area"

Pedicure day

Normally we would have spent some part of the day outside or running errands but the spring snow kept us indoors, thankfully it was sunny. Julia and I did some laundry and had a fun picnic on the bed.

More hugs for Tucker

It was pedicure day. I was putting lotion on my feet and once I was done, Julia plopped her feet in my lap and nodded, I too her socks of and rubbed lotion on her tootsies. Gotta keep em baby softer. Here she is digging through my manicure/pedicure kit.

 I think she is trying to figure out if she could hide the clippers from me

 Too sweet!

 Hugs for Hazel

Baby soft tootsies!

Mama's Little Helpter

I decided to clean the fridge out, Julia decided to help. She grabbed some of my pudding from the fridge and walked over to the draw where we keep the spoons, opened the draw and, while on her tip-toes, tried to grab a spoon. I sat her down, gave her one of her sugary puddings and watched the show:

Go big, or go home?

After changing her clothes she decided this big bag of carrots needed to me moved around the kitchen.

Once it was back, it was time to take it again.

I was finishing up putting thins back and she decided to pull all of her stuffed animals out of her room and bring them into the living room, I guess she was spring cleaning too.
