Tea for Two...

Yesterday i mentioned that my little girl wanted a Tea Party. She just loves playing with her Tea Pot and pouring mommy some "Tea". So i told her a couple of days ago when the weather gets warmer we will have a Tea Party outside on the porch so she can sit at the table and chairs like a big girl. She just smiled. I'm pretty sure she had no idea what that meant but the look on her face was priceless. So everyday since she has pointed to the table and said "Tea". Yesterday morning i baked some fresh biscuits and slathered on some strawberry jelly. Then i poured my regular cup of coffee and got her tea set and headed out doors with it. I then went upstairs to get her and dress her for the day. I told her i had a surprise waiting for her downstairs. She said thank you...so sweetly. Then i took her outside and showed her the table with her "Tea Party" all set up. Her little face just lit up and she said "Oh Mommy ...Tea"! Melts a mommy's heart to see that little face so happy for something so simple. I snapped a quick pic before i brought her out....

Nothing fancy really...Just Biscuits and her tea set. But she is just 2 and was very impressed. She lovingly poured me some "tea" and said thank you Mommy! She will probably never remember it but it is ingrained in my heart forever! :)

After she and little brother went down for a nap yesterday i went back outside to my swing and started putting together her Easter Basket. I found most of the goodies at Target in the Dollar Isles. I love those isles. I have a few other things to add this week. I just haven't sat down to make them yet...but i better get to getting them done today. I will post those items some other day. But here is what i have so far...



Coloring Book, stickers, cupcake drawing book, foam hand soap, tutus, ballerina slippers, cookies in tins, foam stickers, some kinda light up thingy. I'm also going to put her "I Spy Bag" in there and "Where the Wild Things Are" dvd. And another little surprise i'm sewing up for her. I'm not big on Easter candy. I don't let her have much candy/sugar anyway so that is why i only put in the cookies. I can't wait to give it to her. :) Still trying to think of what to get little man??? Any ideas for a 7 month old???
