Three Cups of Tea
Today’s reading week day was supposed to be “red & blue,” but we ended up with blue only, plus a pink hair bow and a new pair of pink jelly shoes. So, not quite on the mark, but still super cute of course!

The Flu Strikes Again
Every year to mark Dr. Seuss’s birthday, Growing Room does a week-long celebration with fun dress-up days and such. Today was silly hat day, and Emmie kept saying, “this is a beach hat!” But even wearing a silly hat, you still gotta have tea with your morning muffin 🙂

The Start of Spring Cleaning
Our church always does a big Easter egg hunt, and every year the members donate eggs & candy. We grabbed these eggs at Walmart yesterday, and had to tell Emerson about five times that they weren’t hers, but were for the church. It sunk in a little more when she carried them in herself this morning, and put them in the donation bucket.

Pink Leopard Girl
Our wake-up call came at 6:30 this morning, so I got up super early and watched “Oliver & Company” from Disney+ on the couch together, snuggled up and super sweet. The beginning that movie was more sad than I remember, and my tender-hearted girl was so worried about the sad, lonely kitty cat in the rain. So next time we watch it, we’re skipping the first scene! We woke Jeff up around 8-ish, and made some breakfast. I had the idea to make her scrambled egg similar to our egg-in-the-holes, and she loved it like that!

Sweeter Bedtime
After last night’s debacle, it was around 9:30pm last night, that Jeff finally laid Emerson down in her bed. She woke up a little bit then and asked for me, but she ended up falling asleep all on her own. She then woke up around 1:15am, whining and groaning a little bit. It woke me up, so I watched her on the security camera searching for her paci, and once she found it, she went back to sleep. So luckily, I didn’t even have to actually get out of the bed.
And then when we woke her up this morning, she was mostly back to her normal, happy self. But by the time we got to school, this girl was being so silly & goofy!

Difficult Bedtime Routine
We forgot the tiny bunny at home again, so once again, Daddy had to take the tiny bunny back to bed to hang out with the big bunny during the day, then send us a picture for photographic evidence for the toddler.

Taco Tuesday
On the way to school today, Emerson realized that she wanted her tiny bunny, but that it wasn’t in the car with us, because she left it sitting at home on the coffee table. She started to have a mini freak out, so I assured her Daddy would take care if the tiny bunny. But she didn’t want that. Instead, she just wanted him to put the tiny bunny in the bed with her bigger bunny, Anna. So we called him to ask, and he said he would send us a picture for her to see once we got to school. And that did the trick to calm her down, and she was pleased as punch to see the photo once we got to school!

Frittata
This sweet nugget was so excited to go to school, she was literally running up to the front doors! I hate leaving her every single day, but I’m SO GLAD she likes her school, her teachers, and her friends.

Slides & Sliders
We slept in until 7:30 this morning! And as great as it was, the parents were still super tired. But um, are toddler parents ever not tired? I don’t think so… But this sweet girl was precious, and she loved eating her cereal for breakfast before church.
