Easter

Hey guys!
I have a new love and his name is Tigger. Actually, I refer to him as T-I-G-G-E-R, TIGGER! Tigger and Pooh is my new fav show. I can't get enough of the music, the show, and of course bouncing like tigger.

Here I am saying a what Tigger and Pooh say every show.


Dancing to the theme songs...






I had a great Easter visit with Nana and Pa Pa Gene. I went to an Easter egg hunt Saturday and met up with all my buddies. Here is the slide show of the pics we took and me hunting through my Easter basket.




PIG-"WIT"!
Here I am looking through my Winnie the Pooh flashcards from my basket.


Daddy, Nana, and Pa Pa Gene took me to get my first real hair cut. Don't get me wrong, Daddy did a great job all those months ago but it was time for a big girl hair cut.



Speaking of "big girl" stuff, my new room is slowly getting finished. The furniture is up and now it is time to beautify it! This is just the basics. I am already sleeping in my new bed! You can even see my new Tigger Pa Pa Gene found for me!

Playing with cups...

Who knew there was so much fun inside of plastic cups? I made the letter L and later remembered a really long time ago that Daddy made a pyramid. So, I wanted to make one again. Mommy helped some, but left most of it up to me!






Learning how to ride my tricycle can be pretty frustrating. I have one tricycle that Daddy can push me along, and I am still working on steering too! We also got another hand me down so Peyton and I could ride or "practice" together. I put on a brave face though it is so hard to tackle!


I met up with my old buddy Cam at the museum. We played for a little while, but needed to get reacquainted.




Do the robot!!
I love watching shows with robots and am trying to learn to dance like one too!


Big sister in training!




I got a cool Easter card from Mimi, and I can really get down!


Mommy got some magnetic letters and of course, I like to make words. I ask how to spell just about anything now a days. I know the sound that each individual letter makes so that I can sound out words almost by myself. I am beginning to learn that some letters work together to make sounds like: sh, st, and oo.


Sorting the letters by color.


Making some train tracks...pushing some cars at the Petit Depot.

I KNOW!!!! I am sorry it has been over two months since I have posted anything. You know I can't get on the computer without permission! So you know who's to blame, right?

I had a great Christmas catching up with family and helping Mommy figure out where to put all my gifts! Before the break, my class put on a play for all the Mommies and Daddies. Check it out!




If you notice above, I said "my class" and that is exactly who Mommy and Daddy watched. Where was Amelia?


My friends did a great job! I can't believe they survived without me!


Of course, when it was snack time, I was ready to perform---to eat that is!!! I was the first one seated!




After Christmas, it was pretty much Saints, Saints, Saints all the time. We had friends over to watch all the games eating good food like shrimp po-boys, muffulettas, jambalaya, and king cake. You didn't think I would miss out on all that.




My favorite part was my very own Saints' balloon to have. I kept that thing for days!


Zoey and I are getting along better everyday and she can really get me giggling!


We had some snow in January, and I am not too fond of playing the snow. I don't think I like the cold too much!




Mommy has been trying to come up with different activities inside to keep us happy, but the warm weather can't come fast enough...for all of us!

My dance cam has become a favorite for us. We love to see ourselves dancing on the tv!



When playing with the playdough gets dull, we made towers. I had to figure out a way to make them stay. And my love for patterns began!!!




I love to sit in the bumbo seat. It fits just right!



Paint rolling...


WOAH!


We have been going to the library more frequently to have a large supply of new books to read. It is still my favorite thing in the whole world to do!





One day it was nice enough to play outside and we took full advantage! We rode bikes, played with bubbles, and drew with chalk. I liked jumping on the shapes Mommy called out.




I had to get my Domino train track just right before I could push my trains on them. If you can stand watching me fix them over and over and over, I do eventually get them going...


Pushing cars with Peyt


Juggling


Last weekend we met up with Jamison at the museum, and it was such a nice day. Lately, I have come home from school talking about dinosaurs so Mommy and Daddy guess that I am playing with them there. So we hit the Dinosaur trail first thing. Do you know what the dinosaur says?









"Weeee! Slide!"


Thursday night fun at the Petit household.




After I got my blankie and Daisy, I asked for books and hung out in my new Reading nook. Even Word World could barely coax me outta there!


Peyton and I made cupcakes Friday morning with my new mini-cupcake set. We did so well talking turns and following directions.







I loved my apron so much, I kept it on until Mommy made me take it off before naptime. Every time Mommy asked if I wanted to take it off... "No, apron on!"

Working on my lion...



Oh yeah!


We went to a different museum this weekend that is near campus called Kidzu. Guess who we ran into? Jamie!! I played with him from time to time, but had to explore this cool new place.













I have become very interested in patterns lately. Instead of putting my bracelets on, I first like to not only put them in a line, but ask Mommy to help me put them in a color pattern.



Sometimes, Mommy needs a little help!


More shape patterns


FROM THE VAULT!
I'm sure these were on the blog a long time ago, but Mommy ran across them while uploading videos and could not get over how much I have grown. These had her cracking up! Enjoy!

Gingerbread Cookies

I helped make gingerbread cookies for the holiday season. Unfortunately, I don't think we can pass them out to our neighbors and friends. Yeah, I was THAT helpful.

I started off by stirring the butter and eggs together. I could do this guys really I could, but Mommy insisted on having a turn. Who's the kid now?


My favorite Christmas song came on while I was mixing and realized unlike mommy, I can do two things at once! I can't think of anything more fun than mixing and dancing.


Next I poured in the cookie mix and got to work again!


My favorite part was rolling the dough. Of course, I had to check and make sure the dough was ready...I enjoyed making fingerprints in the dough and rolling them away with the pin. It was about this time that mommy and daddy realized we would have a lot of gingerbread cookies to eat all by ourselves!


It is important to keep the surface and dough dry using just the right amount of flour. As you can see, I'm a natural...








Are they done yet?


I'm hoping we get to decorating them soon before it is too late!

Here and There

I really like hunting for different ornaments on the Christmas tree...


Eating cookies and reading by the fire...


Who's face does that remind you of?




Dancing to Christmas music


Reviewing colors with index cards. Where's green? Hold it up high!






Reading...



Role playing.


This one's kinda old, but Mommy and Daddy get a kick outta how I pronounce some things. Here I am talking to our cat, Meeko.


They could not get me to say my teachers' names: Veronica and Lorna which for some odd reason I pronounce, Tugga and Larna. Mommy's gonna work getting that on tape
