REWIND

Here's the rewind....

This past week we had our basement finally sheet rocked & mudded. YEAH!!!!! Now bring on the paint! I have no idea on what color to choose for the main room. The bathroom will be in the yellow family. I think we will just have to pick a very neutral color, aka beige, until we have the furniture picked out. Our goal is to have the space "ready" before the fall rolls around. Meaning, floor is stained, doors put into place and the bathroom functional.

Here's a peak of the space sofar.


Since it was Easter, Adalyn & I got to dye some eggs for the first time this past week. She was sooo excited to help decorate the eggs. I have not done this activity since I was a kid. We opted to make vibrant colored Easter eggs. They turned out okay. It takes longer to make the darker colors, therefore we had to entertain Addy. She had her nighttime bath, while the eggs sat in their dye bath.


This year's Easter was filled with many firsts for us. We dyed eggs, Addy got to look for her Easter basket from the Easter bunny and Addy got to participate in the Annual Easter Egg Hunt at Grandpa & Grandma's.

It took Adalyn awhile to catch on to the Easter basket hunt. She actual walked by her basket first & did a once glance over the it, then continued to walk forward. She must have realized it was her basket, she then walked back to hiding spot & said "My Easter Basket!" Out of all the gifts, she was most excited by the bubbles (Thanks Aunt Ginny.) She finally got to blow the bubbles at Gma & Gpa's. She actually learned the proper way of blowing them. Before, she would put the bubble wand on her lips and try to create the bubbles. She now knows not to put the wand on her face.

Way to go ADDY!

As for the Annual Easter Egg Hunt, it didn't take Adalyn long to figure out the goal of game. We have to thank her cousin Connor for his big help. It was quite comical, when Addy got the idea down, she was off. Connor had to actual run to keep up with Addy.
