Alexa is showing me the pretty flower on the bottom of her new shoes.
She loves her baby brother!
We are all so excited that the weekend is finally here!
This is one very happy little girl!
Since the kids were in such a good mood this morning, I thought we would go grocery shopping. Alexa is now calling this her "
Nemo coat" because it is orange. The sun was shining when we left the house and then kids sat in their rocking chairs for a moment.
We enjoyed a quick breakfast at the store. We went to the bakery and picked out some fresh donuts and then went to get some chocolate milk. Everyone kept telling me how cute they were!
While Gavin was taking his nap, I told Alexa that she could help me bake some cupcakes. She immediately went to the drawer where I keep our aprons and pulled hers out. She loves wearing it!
Red Velvet cake is Daddy's favorite. It'll be a little surprise for him when he gets home this afternoon. He's been at a meeting all day.
I think Alexa's favorite part about baking is cracking the eggs. I showed her the cake box and asked her how many eggs we needed. She looked at the ingredient pictures and counted the eggs. She said, "One, two, three eggs, Mama!" She was right!
Right after I took this picture, she dropped the egg in her left hand and it splattered across the floor. She was a little sad but maybe this will teach her to be very careful when handling the eggs.
Watching all the ingredients get mixed together.
This is another one of her favorite parts!
While the cupcakes were in the oven baking, I decided that we could also make up some Jello
Jigglers. We got this Easter Jello mold for free at the grocery store with the purchase of some Jello. Out of all the different choices of flavors, she picked the orange box (like
Nemo, she said).
She helped me stir. Now the
Jigglers are in the refrigerator for a few hours. We'll let you know how they turned out later!
