I noticed it has been a long time since we posted. Maci had a great Easter today. She got lots of stuff. The Easter Bunny did bring her flashcards that she has played with all afternoon. She likes to have me quiz her and then her quiz me. The flashcards cover all kinds of things I didn't think she would know yet, but I guess she picks up on more than I realize. I thought the ones that would trick her would be the beginning sounds - which one in the picture starts with the same sound. Or the which one in the picture is different. I thought she would struggle with those things, but I struggle more than she does! I sometimes try to make it harder than it is...
Needless to say she got LOTS of candy. And Uncle Dan always comes through with the toys that parents would never buy....silly string who buys that for an almost 3 year old? She also has about every bubble toy they make and then some. So I hope a couple of these days we have off will be nice outside. The Easter Bunny left a basketball for her and she can't wait to play with it. We told her if the weather was not nice we would let her play with it in the garage, but she doesn't think that will be the same.
She still really likes to write in notebooks (or checkbook as she calls it). She has been writing in her little books the Easter Bunny brought all day. I can't believe how long that can entertain her.
We did take Grandma Calista with us to have lunch for Daniel's birthday. Obviously Grandma is feeling better and was able to wear her shoes for more than 20 minutes. The last time I had been to visit she had put her shoes on for the first time and had them on for 20 minutes, but today she had them on for a couple hours! After lunch Maci made Grandma Jane take her downstairs to watch a movie. Then we headed home - Maci fell asleep about the end of the gravel road. She took a big nap today.
