easter & baby animal days...

can i just say that charly is at such a fun age! she's a handful, don't get me wrong! but 95% of the time she's making us laugh at all she does! does your baby have quirky behavior? we think charly does! things she's doing right now...
...dances to anything with a beat, i mean anything, she just starts wiggling. it's like she can't help it!
...her favorite place to hang out is on the first step of any stair, it's the perfect height for her to sit on!
...is loving her stuffed animals right now...i'll have to take a picture of her with all of them!
...always wants to look out the window or be outside, even when it's snowy and windy!
...loves building towers and knocking them down!
...plays with shoes, so don't leave them around!
...trying to talk more, but still struggling! working on animal sounds, but so far a cow says boo and a duck and pig make the same loud squeak! too funny! she knows the sound a truck, car and tractor make though!

okay that's enough, onto the real post!


Easter.

What a fun time of year! The weather was great, until it snowed, but we still had a fun day! We spent conference weekend up at the lake house relaxing. Easter morning Charly discovered the Easter Bunny had paid her a visit. Isn't it awesome that they always find you, even if you're not at your house! Surprisingly, Charly was pretty excited about hunting for eggs and really good at it. Saying, "ooohh", in a deep whispering voice each time she spotted an egg. She didn't like it when I had her put the eggs in her basket, she wanted to just open it over and over again! But eventually with our help she found all the eggs and goodies left for her! After morning session of conference we went home to Corey's dads birthday party. Dinner was good and then we colored eggs, for the second time (my fav part)! I hate the PAAS brand of egg dye, it sucks, so next year we won't be buying that kind! It wasn't overly exciting and I was bummed we didn't get to all dress up in our Easter attire for church, but we'll do that this Sunday instead! A few pics of course...checkin' out her Easter basket

Baby Animal Days.

So much FUN! And so much CUTENESS! I have never been, but since Charly loves every kind of animal she's ever seen I wanted to take her!Albino Peacock
