Lookie Lookie…The little artist finally said she wanted to go to art class again!

The teacher took these pics of Pooks creating her masterpiece. So far she said she wants to go again next week! They gave her a brownie and some strawberry juice so i think they scored big this time. Last time it was lemon cake and watermelon juice…both of which Pookie said she just pretended she liked (and clearly did a bad job b/c when i picked her up they asked if ella no le gusta sandia o limon).

We got to the shop a little early to pick her up and she was walking outside with two little friends and all holding hands. Little cuties.

Back in action

Our car is back in service and we hit up our usual veggie shop in Cobano for the first time since we’ve been back. We spent just about 100.00 and got everything below. Also not pictured is a papaya and pineapple we bought for our neighbors below. There are 30 eggs in the carton and they are free range from a local farmer in town. Here you dont refrigerate the eggs because they are fresh. They last about 2-3 weeks. Since we are all vegetarian this is the bulk of our weekly shopping and the kids consume enormous amounts of fruit between plain eating it, daily smoothies, and homemade ice pops. We bought all this on monday. I only have 2 bananas left today (wednesday). We made muffins, froze a bunch and made smoothies, and now we have two up for grabs.

Some of Pookie’s pics from Italy

I just got around to pulling Pookie’s pix off her camera from Italy. She also has a bunch of random videos so that will be the next step. Here are some of her pictures from our adventures (which she always wants to talk about now when we are laying in bed).

Whenever she would bring her camera with her and we would leave for our day she would say Ok let’s stop and take a family selfie before we head out. Her short little arm doesnt extend very far so most of them came out too blurry but here is one that didn’t

Conversation from last night

Last night Sophie and Dada were having their usual daily bickering and this is what I overheard:

Sophie: I’m going to tell Papa you threw a ball at me and he is going to be really mad.

Dada: Oh yea, well what will he say when you tell him you tried to kick me in the weener?

Sophie: I’m not going to tell him that part.

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

“Buba”

It’s all fun and games until Momma says Buba. That is all Sab needed to hear to crawl up to the top of the pillow and wait for the boob. I said I wouldn’t be nursing number 2 as long as i did Pooks, and here we are coming up on 2 years. Oh well. “Want Buba. Night Night”. I am a sucker (no pun intended).

Tico Bunny!

We set up for the Tico Bunny last night and he arrived with all sorts of yummies. He left two big bouncy balls to replace the old one that Flo Bo popped. He hid 28 eggs all over the house full of candy and surprises. The chicadees were so excited finding all of their eggs and reading the note the bunny left for them. Sophie said she was really proud of the bunny for eating his carrot and drinking the water she left for him. It was pretty early and between last night and this morning the bunny was almost caught hiding his eggs so we didnt take many pics but the little lovies had a blast! Sophie wrote her and Sabs names all by herself on both cards and knew how to spell them both. We left out all our empty eggs for the bunny to come and fill with candy overnight.

The bunny would have hid them all late last night but he had to return very early this morning because if he left his eggs out overnight all the chocolate would have melted. Oh tico bunny problems.

Crafts gone coo coo

Today the electricity went out for the entire afternoon. It was 1000 degrees and we decided to make some crafty cards for the Tico Easter Bunny who was making a late visit to our house that night since he promised to stop by when we got back home. That project turned into this…
