Anyone for tea?


My girlie has been sick all week.  She's five days into a course of antibiotics for Strep and a cough that she's had since Christmas Eve.  She's a lot better today...but she's still not quite 100 percent yet so we've been keeping things low key.  She even missed gymnastics last Thursday! We've spent a LOT of time just playing around the house enjoying a few of her Christmas gifts.  She's especially been enjoying her new Tabeo tablet and the cute Ladybug Game that she got. 


Last Saturday she decided she wanted to have a party with her new porcelain Tinkerbell tea she got from Nana and Papaw.  She even decided to "dress up" for the occasion which, in her opinion, meant simply adding a tiara, some jewelry and high-heeled sandals to her jeans and long-sleeved tee ensemble, hehee.






These shots make me giggle.  We were having cookies and York Peppermint Patties with our tea and she, having never had a peppermint patty, got carried away in the moment and said "Mmmmm!".  But as you can see in the second shot she very quickly decided that they were NOT for her.


 
 

 
It had snowed a little overnight and my poor girl had been cooped up inside for 4 days.  I decided that some fresh air might do her some good so I layered and bundled her up and we went out for a few minutes.  She loved being pulled around on her sled.  We got it last winter but never once got to use it.  We barely had enough snow to use it on Saturday. 

 
 




 She was so happy to get outside for a few minutes.  We even had a few crocodile tears when it was time to go back in.  Poor baby is sick of being cooped up.   Since she's feeling so much better tonight it looks like she'll get to go to "school" and gymnastics tomorrow.  She can't wait!
