Winnie the Pooh Day

Thanks to an early morning post of Dawn's I was able to put together a quick and simple Winnie the Pooh Day celebration for Ree.

Sometimes the smallest things take up the most room in your heart. ~Winnie the Pooh

 While she was eating her breakfast I gathered all the Pooh things I could find. I really think there are more but this is what I found quickly. 

Some people care too much...I think it's called love. ~Winnie the Pooh

She was so excited when I had her come into the kitchen and found all the Pooh stuff. Here she's touching her breakable Winnie the Pooh figurine. She's never allowed to touch it just look at it so she was happy.

You're braver than you believe, stronger then you seem, and smarter then you think.

~Winnie the Pooh

She still wasn't feeling 100% from her cold so the coloring and reading of the books didn't last too long. But she had fun while we sat at the table. I put in Tigger & Pooh and a Musical Too which she's only seen a few times so she was in her glory to see Pooh on TV.

If there ever comes a day when we can't be together, keep me in your heart, I'll stay there forever. ~Winnie the Pooh

Weekly Yarn Along

Linking up with Ginny from Small Things for her yarn along

I finished my lattice socks this week. I like them. I like the yarn I just wish I had knit them in a different yarn to show the pattern off better. Even though I liked the pattern I don't think I liked it enough to make ANOTHER pair using it. But I'm happy they're done and I'm very happy they're for me!

I started this awhile ago as some mindless knitting to do while watching one of the Harry Potter movies. It's the Harry Potter 4 chapter hat.

After that is finished I'm going to knit the Boneyard shawl, again for me. My husband told me to pick out a "nice" skein of yarn (meaning one that costs more then 8 dollars) for  part of my birthday present. I'm thinking I might use Madelinetosh Pashmina but am not sure yet. We were thinking of taking a day trip to visit WEBS on Friday but with Ree not feeling well I'm not sure if we'll do that. 

I forgot to take a picture of the book I'm reading but it's Inheritance, the 4th book in the Eragon series. I'm really enjoying the books and will be sad when this one is finished.

Sick Days

Ree came down with a cold over the weekend. So the past few days have consisted of trying to get her drink and lots and lots and LOTS of hours snuggled on the couch with too many blankets to count.

This morning we had our first snowfall of the winter. About a quarter of an inch that was gone before noon. Even not feeling well she was so excited to see it!

This afternoon we shared a cup of tea together...the first one she's ever had! It was so cute. We then sat and counted up some of our gifts from Jesus. I love hearing what she wants to thank Him for. I should start writing them down along with mine.

Here's hoping Ree feels better soon so we can get onto celebrating this coming weekend!

Sunday evening

The weekend has been pretty low key. Ree has a little bit of a cough so we've been relaxing. This evening we did manage to start out Sunday routine of visiting the Auntie for football and dinner. It was nice to start it up again after missing a few weeks due to colds.

Here's hoping the coming week is illness free and warmer then it was out today!

Friday

This post was supposed to go up last night. But it came down to being on the computer or curling up on the couch with a book. The book won!

Thursday & Friday were both yucky weather days. Thursday deluges of rain. Friday unbelievable wind. So we stayed close to home both days.

We had an impromptu afternoon with my sister. Playing with every single one of Ree's toys; having chicken nuggets for supper; watching Tangled; and ice cream (for the husband).

Here's hoping the weekend is full of fun!
