The other day Natalie was watching Dora. For those of you who have watched any of these episodes, you know that to find out where you must go and how to get there, you need the assistance of Map. As Natalie was watching and listening to this part, the repetition was getting old for her. After Dora repeated how to get to where she was going about three times, Natalie said, "Enough already. We know how to get there." It was pretty funny.
Today, Natalie learned a new song in Sunday School - "God's not dead...He's alive!" She sang it for about twenty minutes...actions and all. It was an awesome song!

Baking
Natalie and I had a fun day with my parents today. We celebrated my Mom's birthday a week late because she was under the weather last week. Yesterday, Natalie helped me bake a cake for Grandma. She had a great idea to add sprinkles to it after we frosted it. The cake tasted great! I think we'll have to bake some more cakes for birthdays this year.
After lunch today, we checked out a possible indoor waterpark to enjoy later this spring. As we were checking out the rooms, Natalie asked me whether the beds were hotel beds. I knew exactly what she was asking. One of our rules at home is that we don't jump on beds unless they are hotel beds...so I answered "yes" to her question. She had a blast jumping on it!
A couple of nights ago, Natalie was on her cell phone pretending to call Ethan and Logan. She stated that she wanted to see them. Natalie went on to say that we could either come over to their house or that they could come over and play at our house. The next subject that she brought up made me laugh. Some background information.... is that the last time we had plans to see them, they had recently had a bout with pink eye. Natalie obviously was thinking about that as she said that we might not be able to see them because of the fact that they had "red ear"... or she went on to say "pink ear". I thought her interpretation of what they had was pretty funny.

Girls Night
Natalie had a great Friday night with her cousins and Uncle and Aunt while Nate and I had a fun night out at a concert. Auntie Chris and Ella stayed over night. It sounds like they had a great night of doing girl stuff like painting toe nails and playing dress up.
We enjoyed the concert so much that we decided to buy the CD. One of the songs is titled Cinderella, and it is about a dad and his daughter. Nate had Natalie listen to the words yesterday. And ever since, the two of them have been dancing around the living room playing the song over and over.
A couple nights ago, Natalie and Nate worked on putting a wagon together that Natalie had received from Grandpa Wes and Grandma Julie for Christmas. Natalie was a big helper. I had to laugh when she was asking to use the "plugger"... otherwise known to most people as the pliers. :)
This morning when Natalie was in the shower, she had her feet up. When I asked her why she was sitting like that, she responded that she did not want her toe nail polish to come off. I thought that was pretty cute!
Today, Natalie and I had a fun afternoon at the high school. The student council put on a "Winter Carnival" for kids. There were all sorts of fun games that Natalie enjoyed. It is fun to watch her trying her best at all the games. We attempted the cake walk a couple of times. Natalie had her attention on the little stuffed Dora on the tables rather than any of the goodies. Dora now has a new home with Natalie. :)
