Friday Funnies:

#1 - Right as I was putting dinner on the table, Cie-J decided that he needed to use the restroom.  Alanna yelled out to him "Daddy, hurry back or your food will get moldy!!"  Having NO clue why she would say that or where she got it from, we laughed, and he went and took care of his business.  When he came back, he started to eat his blueberries and noticed one that was full of white fuzz.  He looked at me and said, "Honey, this one has mold.  Did you not notice it?"  Alanna IMMEDIATELY piped up with "SEE DADDY!!!!  I TOLD YOU SO!!!!!  YOUR FOOD GOT MOLDY!!!!!!"

#2 - As we were running a little late one day, I said "Alanna, you need to hustle so we won't be late for gymnastics."  She looked at me, shrugged, and said "But mom, it's only like 3 miles away!" 

HAVE A BLESSED EASTER! 

Awwww Moment:

This is a page from Alanna's Cubbies book.  It says "Draw a picture of something you talk about with God."  She drew a picture of herself and then asked me to spell the word "Thanks".  If you look closely, you can see it at the top.  So sweet!  She said she thanks God for her family every day. <3

This Is What Happens...

 When Alanna holds sweet little newborn goats...

 This is in the Urgent Care clinic.  About ten minutes later, her eye had totally swollen shut. =(

And this is about an hour after her first steroid dose.  Poor sweet girl.

Easter Matching:

Alanna had just gotten an Easter box in the mail from Mamaw and she put all the Easter egg stickers on herself.  Then it was time to go get Asha from the groomer.  Asha came out with an Easter egg bandana on her neck.  Alanna squealed with delight at the thought of matching her dog!  

Haha.  It was too cute.  She said "Mom, you just HAVE to take a picture of this!"

Monkey Monday:

Alanna dressed herself for church yesterday.

I couldn't decide if this was one for the Monkey Mondays or for the Friday Funnies.  It was too cute that she picked this out but I kinda wanted to put a note on her that said "she dressed herself."  LOL!

Baby Goats:

Our friend Mrs. Jaymie had some baby goats at her house, so we HAD to go and see them.  They are small and cute and so sweet.  They actually had a goat in labor while we were there and she had both of them while we were outside!  It was so neat!  Alanna immediately scooped this one up and claimed it as her own. =)  She was so sweet and kept rubbing her head on Alanna's neck and would suck on her ear like she was nursing.

THEN THIS HAPPENED.....

 I noticed her eye starting to swell up and then I noticed some hives on her arm.

 We ended up going to church where the pastor's wife is a nurse.  She took one look at Alanna and told me to take her quickly to the Quick Care Clinic.  By the time we got there, her arms, neck, ears, eyes and hands had hives and her eye was almost swollen shut.

She was not really in any pain and was in a great mood.  She made the doctor and all the nurses laugh and everyone thought she was the cutest thing.  If you look closely, you can see her eye swollen shut behind the glasses.  They immediately want to give her a steroid shot. =(  Luckily, they found some oral children's liquid and we opted for that instead. =) She walked out of there with two stickers and a sucker when it was all said and done.

After a bath, some benadryl, and some itchy cream, she crashed out in bed and did just fine.

Who knew you could be allergic to goats?!?!

Cousins:

 As soon as our family got into town, we decided to enjoy the beautiful weather outside.  The girls quickly warmed up to each other and Alanna took Lyda's hand and they walked up and down the back sidewalk over and over and over and over. 

 Back and forth and back and forth.  They must have done it a hundred times.  It was the sweetest thing.  Alanna still has troubles with her "S" sounds sometimes, so she called Lydia "Fweety". 

 Both girls loved rocking in the rocking chairs.

Daddy and Gunkle Clint made the girls a fort with a rope and a tarp and they LOVED it!!  Who needs fancy toys when you have rocks, forts, and dirt?!?

Both girls left the bath water brown that evening.

That's when you know it's been a good day.
