The latest on Alice...

Hi Everyone. I know Alice installments are few and far between these days but I finally have some time to fill you in on the adventures of Alice! She is doing well. A little sick with a cough, but getting better. She really has had only one bad nights' sleep, which Grandma Sue was lucky enough to witness!! Other than that, she's talking a lot. Her favorite word right now is "bubbles" - to be expanded on below. She is having a great time at daycare, especially now that the weather is improving and they are going out to the playground and for walks more consistently. The first few pictures are from a theme week at school where everyday was something different. I took these after she came back from crazy hair day. She went to school with my version of crazy hair (ie. bed head) and came home with a much more fun take on it!

CRAZY HAIR DAY at school!
It was a very impressive look!

We had a very low key Easter which was nice for us. We played with our Easter basket toys for a little bit and then went to the local park where Alice LOVED going down the slide by herself. She would get down and then sprint back to the stairs, climb up again, and run right back over to the top of the slide. She definitely burned some calories running the route a few times!

Happy Easter!
She loved the new crayons from the Easter bunny and especially loved blowing bubbles! She must have said "Bubbles" about a hundred times that day!! It's her new favorite thing to do!

The last few pics are from today. It's always hard to get a picture of her when I'm home alone with her and she just wants to play with the camera. But she was easily distracted by her lacrosse stick, which she loves. She plays with it at least once a day and constantly brings over the second stick to one of us to play with her. She hasn't mastered cradling, catching or throwing, but she does have a very unique way of going about ground balls!
Getting ready for school!
Playing some lax before we leave for the day.

Gearing up for our last regular season game of the year of Friday and then the playoffs begin! Can't believe we are closing in on the last few weeks of the season...

April is here!

Wow...it's hard to believe that April is here and there is a fresh coat of snow on the ground! What the heck?! Alice didn't seem to mind it when she looked out the window this morning. She has been in remarkably good spirits this week. Her lingering cough has departed for the time being which is great. She is healthy and happy and still an incredibly picky eater!!

Since I haven't posted in awhile, here are a couple of pictures from this morning. Daycare has been faithfully doing her hair while I was traveling so today I decided to give them the day off and give her some pig tails. Pretty cute!

Alice has been really talkative lately. She had a five minute conversation with Grandpa Gogo last night and then said a very clear "I love you" to both her grandparents. I have been having the best time with her this week. Have a good weekend!
