Buckets of Fun for Everyone

"He's Mr. Potato Head and his bucket of parts.  Buckets of fun for everyone.  To make a million silly faces it's the place to start.  Put him all together and take him all apart...."

A while back Skylar and I had a Mr. Potato Head afternoon.  We have an obnoxious amount of Potato head paraphernalia.  So we dressed them all up and took pictures.  I'm not sure why Skylar has her coat on.  I think we were getting ready to go somewhere and just killing time until Annelise woke up from her nap.  :)  

For the most part everything fits in the giant spud on the left.  Admit it, you all want to come over and play with our spuds!  (And the jingle's stuck in your head.)

Masked Retriever

As mentioned in the previous post Skylar has a "Masked Retriever" costume.  It was inspired by a Backyardigan Episode in which Austin doesn't want to return an overdue library book.  Uniqua, the librarian, dresses as the "Masked Retriever" to go and get the book back.  Short story, already too long, I found a "Masked Retriever" picture.

  I love her imagination!  She never ceases to make me laugh.  The hat by the way is from our Frosty the Snowman kit.  See the "Indoor Day" post for a picture of the snowman with his parts.  Just for good measure I'll throw in some pics of Annelise being cute.  Even when she's mad.

But 2 seconds later it's All Good!  Love the girl.

Skylar's 4th Birthday

Yes I realize I'm only 3 months late with this post.  But better late than never I guess.  Here's some shots from Skylar's 4th Birthday.  We just had a small party with Grandpa, Grandma and my sister with her family.  Can't believe she's 4!  Where does the time go?

Just for fun here she is on her 1st birthday.

Here she is on her 2nd birthday.

3rd Birthday (Such a little girl!)

-

Back to birthday #4.  Excited about one of her presents.  (She's wearing her "Ballerina" outfit by the way.  We have a "Masked Retriever" outfit and a "Winter" outfit as well.  She does love to pretend.)  See previous post if there are any questions about that.

  This picture is her present from mom and dad.  She opened this on her actual birthday.  It's a Polly Pocket Cruise Ship.  Polly Pockets have officially invaded our house.  Oh the tiny-ness.  :)  But it makes her happy.  Can't believe how 'old' she looks here.  Happy Birthday Skylar!
