A Visit to the Easter Bunny!

We went to visit the Easter bunny the weekend before Easter. Noelle waited patiently in line for her turn.

As we got closer she decided to photo bomb the kids in front of her and I had to hold her back! She ran right up to the bunny and took over her turn! When it was time to sit in the bunny's lap she began to loose her bravery!

Build A Bear is right across from the Bunny Paddock. I wanted to get her a bunny. She found a German Shepard dog on roller skates and a leash she wanted. We figured we were not getting out of the store without that dog so she got her own! What a racket that place is! Dog, 4 shoes, 4 skates, leash, collar...cripes! Dave and I split the bill!

She walked her puppy all over the mall and was the center of attention. Just how she likes it. It was pretty dang cute!

Stuffing her face at the chocolate store!

It was quite the chore getting the dog away from her long enough to each lunch!

Our Silly Girl!

She loves to make messes!

And to clean them up!

Sucking on a pickle and watching a game at the Ale House!

Happy St. Patty's Day!

Noey and I made rainbows and pots of gold for her friends at daycare. She actually did help me count out 5 pieces of "gold" for each bag! Let me tell you, getting those twizzlers stuffed in that bag in the shape of a rainbow was no easy task!



Girl has her green on and is ready to party! At least the bink matches...



We cannot get a clear picture of Tsuki! She never sits still! We have found our ADHD cat!


Helping dad work on the bathroom!


Looking surly!

All Noey, All the Time

Noey and Daddy enjoying Star Wars. This is the only program she actually watches. Dave is delighted!








First bath in her new tub!






Noey was so excited when her "Prince" (Daddy) brought her home a box of Princess shoes! She prefers the heels to the flats.

Family Night!

Someone is now a HUGE fan of dip! Getting her to eat actual food has become a challenge. She uses the food as the vehicle for the dip or ketchup. She LOVES ketchup. She'll eat it by the spoonful. The other morning she dipped her pancakes in maple syrup and ketchup. Yum-O!


Driving her first Jeep!




Blast off!


Time to go home! Someone is ornery!


We have Noelle's bathroom all painted. We are getting everything organized as the workers come in on Monday to start our renovation! I can't wait to have it done!!! Dave won't stop making fun of the pink walls. I think he's afraid to "go" in there!!

A Day at the Ranch!

There is a local ranch that has activities for kids like feeding the animals, games, pony rides and hay rides. We got in cheap for President's Day! We took loads of apples and carrots and they also gave us a bucket mixed with crackers and carrots. Noelle sampled them all!

City Slicker Dave wasn't all that impressed. I think horrified was the word. As soon as we got out of the car I said, "I love that smell." And he gagged. He didn't touch anything while on the premises. My hands smelled like horse after several washings and hours!

Getting ready to go country...on her cell phone. And she thinks this is a clothes optional ranch.


Testing the apples.






Chasing chickens.


Chasing rabbits.


Bull riding.


Going for a ride! I have several nice bruises on my leg where that thing came around and clocked me!!




Being possessive with the toys!


Getting lassoed!


Don't do that again mom!


Hungry horse wondering if Noey would make a tasty snack!


She did well feeding the horse! We have some video to post of her feeding him!

Cammo Gal!

Dave is trying to turn Noey into a boy! Or at least instill a love of cammo colored clothes!
