Well, sorry for been MIA, but my computer had a little chat with my delicious cup of tea. The result?? You know!!! No more computer for mommy after a scary noise coming from my ex-friend (computer). That means I lost my wonderful pictures of Pinky doing all her cuteness (well the last two months of pictures because I have the other ones on my book). I also lost some great printable and other documents. Yes, it happens when you don’t backup your computer that often. 

However, my darling husband bought me another one (just because he doesn’t want me near his Mac…lol). And here we are trying to figure it out how to add my blog to Windows live writer again. (It got me almost a week to deal with it…..just because I couldn’t remember my username and password…lol….)

So, lets talk better about beautiful, peaceful and smelly moments like: SPRING!!!

I am in love with tis season and fall, of course, because we don’t have all those changes back in Puerto Rico. I love to watch the trees, its flowers, the grass, the clouds, the sun, the fresh wind…oh my everything!!!

Pinky also has been so excited about Spring….we go to the playground more often until really late (just because mommy has to prepare dinner), we have picnics, we can discover different bugs around or just lay down on the grass talking (I just let Pinky to talk and I listen to her….it’s a very amazing moment, just listening to her, using words that I didn’t know she knows already, changing her features accordingly the theme, looking at those beautiful eyes lighting up with excitement, proud of herself, dreaming, loving, hoping….) Ooopsss……I am having a mommy moment…lol….I just get very grateful for having her….seeing how fast she is growing and blooming just like Spring!

Spring art using bandages, googly eyes and buttons

Cherry blossom craft: this idea has been around all Pinterest. Just pick up some sticks (one of Pinky’s favs activities) and glue (or in our case we used tape) tissue paper for pretending flowers). Creekside learning has a better explanation. 

Spring fingerprint art: It was mostly a Mommy’s activity since Pinky was more interested to play in the balcony….she just shared her fingers with me and went to play while mommy was having her relaxing moment drawing and coloring. Isn’t she so kind to share her fingerprints with her mommy???

Eggs are making her path through!!!…a bird nest!!!!!

We just tape feathers on the back of the eggs, glue some eyes and bottoms.

Our DIY Indoors Rainbow!!

Isn’t it so pretty and lovely….Every afternoon on mommy’s bedroom we get lucky to admire a rainbow on the ceiling….how’s that???? Just forget a DVD or CD on your window….so when the sun moves…you get to enjoy those pretty colors.

Happy SPRING 2012!!!

We are almost at the end of Fall. Most of the trees are bare already but where are their leaves? Everywhere on the floor, waiting for little and big kids to have fun!

As Pinky gets older, she is more aware of the changes happening in her surroundings. It’s so delightful to watch her discovering something new or talking about themes she knows already.

We remember as in Spring we had beautiful and colorful flowers, trees with green leaves, insects (her favorites), a great warm weather and an almost 3 years old lady hunting for treasures while discovering this lovely season.

Outdoor Exploration: trees, anthills, mushrooms.

Freedom (almost!).

Now, at Fall, we have a big an officially 3 years old girl, scaring ghosts away, catching leaves, still smelling flowers, making friends, amazed by an early winter snow and hunting the skies, always with mommy by her side.

 

Furthermore, waiting for the next season’s amazing adventures to come!!!

That’s life!!!
