Growing Up With Kaylee-Spring Sprung Bubbles & Fun!

~~It has been awhile since I have posted about Kaylee. I wanted to share some things we have enjoyed since spring arrived, that include bubbles.~~

We are still wearing winter coats here in Washington State. We have had some of the coldest days on record for this month.

The sun was out despite the chill and I was looking for some inexpensive entertainment for the little ones. I found it in the form of a bubble machine. I purchased it with a 50% off coupon at Jo-Ann Fabrics and Craft Store. For about $8.50 we have had days of fun with this item. I have taken it to church to entertain the babies and toddlers and plan to use it at my daughter's 2nd birthday coming up. In the pictures below you will see Kaylee with her cousins Max and Alyssa.

My husband and I also took Kaylee and her cousin Max to their first Library Toddler Dance Party. It included dancing, a bubble machine, balloons, a giant parachute, a giant earth ball, and more. They had such a blast! My husband and I had just as much fun watching them boogie! We attended another dance party this morning. It is very nice that this event is free.

I asked my daughter last week if she wanted to go to the library.
She said, "Yes, I love the library!"
I answered thrilled, "You do? You love the library?"
She replied, "I want to hug it!"
That's my girl!

She heads right to the children's book section. A section I love myself!

A couple other "bubbling" events included Kaylee's first bubble bath (she wasn't so sure of the bubbles at first) and the book pictured here, courtesy of one of the groups I am involved in found here: Children's Group. King Bidgood's in the Bathtub (with CD) by Audrey Wood
It is about a king in a bath full of bubbles who doesn't want to get out. See our review here: Review
