Welcome Back Spring!
Where did the weekend go. Seems like i shouldnt be here...well, i certainly dont want to be here thats for sure. Had a wonderful time over the weekend. M.J. and I made a few trips out...1 Sunday to Church...luv it...and the other to visit Home Depot, the mall, and the library. On the first Saturday of the month Home Depot has a deal where kids get to build a craft. She has a little apron she wears and puts pens of achievement on. she really enjoys going. weve been 6 times i think and have built everything from a butterfly house, to a coat hanger, to a car, and Saturday it was a planting box. perfect i thought because we have been talking about getting some for the porch and growing flowers and veggies. MaryJane really wanted to plant veggies in her box, but as you can see it is to small for that. She picked out "sugar daddy" sugar snap peas at one point and said she wanted to get them because i was her sugar daddy. hehe. we ended up getting violas....princess mix....and yes i told her i wanted to get them because she was my princess. she later told me she was going to call me prince mix. hahaha! had a good time Sunday planting them. cant wait to see them grow. She got another new webkinz at the mall...w/ her money she earns from doin her chores. a white poodle this time named Sara. She wanted me to take a pic of her w/ it right after she got it, but no camera. later i tried, but no luck. instead i got to take a picture of her w/ her "i Love you' bear. still cute huh. hehe. got some books at the library called 'ill read to you, you read to me". so neat i think. one is fairy tales and one is nursery rhymes. you go back and forth reading parts of the story, separated and colored differently, and then at the end you read together. we read one all the way thru and started the second one. So other then these outings, eating, bathing, and sleeping... MaryJane pretty much played outside the whole weekend. I played w/ her the early part of each afternoon and sporadically thru the afternoons after her friends came out to play. She was in love w/ balloons this weekend. i had picked up a pack of 15 Thursday at the store thinking we would blow one up and play that game where you hit it back and forth and cant let it hit the ground....well we did that but before the end of the day Saturday she had blown up or given away them all. She was so excited because she figured out she could blow them up by herself as long as i blew it up once before to stretch it out a bit. I made a big deal about how she was such a big gurl because of this and the fact that she hammered every nail on her planter box by herself. We had to get another pack of balloons Sunday on the way home for Church and there about gone too. Her and her Friends made water balloons in too. Overall a fab weekend! Go Memphis! : )
