First? Skylers favorite song of all time - Itsy Bitsy Spider!! (Plus blowing some kisses!)
And also? Her newest "habit" which drives me nuts! And at the very start of this video she is singing "No More Monkeys Jumping on the bed"!! But you have to listen carefully!
Cuddles and Hugs
We are on our 2nd day of not feeling well. We've spent much of the day cuddled up on the couch, but while I was cleaning the kitchen after lunch Skyler was sitting in the La-Z-Boy watching "The Wiggles". You know she's not feeling well when a musical show is on the television and she's not dancing.
For the Love of Toddlers!
Today (Saturday) Skyler was feeling under the weather most of the day. So we spent the day curled up on the couch watching cartoons.
However, after lunch she did catch a brief moment of energy. While I was washing dishes, she came running into the kitchen with a swimsuit over her head, and a skirt over her jeans!
In this photo, she was (refusing to take of her fun clothes) putting her dollies down for a nap! Bath towels make nice blankets for the dollies.
Lunch Box!
Hi guys! It's Skyler.
Mommy was telling everyone about our trips to the zoo. Which I really liked.
But I wanted to tell you about my lunch. She let me pack my lunch box the last few days.
Have you seen Finding Nemo? It's my favorite movie. So I had Nemo lunch at daycare on Monday!
Hot Dog Octopus, String Cheese Jelly Fish, Carrot Star Fish! And an ocean of blue rice.
When we went to the zoo, Nathan had a dinosaur that I really liked. So Mommy helped me make a dinosaur lunch for Wednesday!
Mac n Cheese Sun! Grape Clouds. A Ham and Cheese Dinosaur. And even a Dinosaur Egg!!

Zoo Girl!
Skyler has turned into a Zoo Girl!
Joe invited us to meet him, the boys and his friend Mariah at the Zoo in Colorado Springs. I jumped at the chance! The zoo up there is HUGE, and so much fun!
When you first enter the zoo, they have this huge giraffe exhibit where you can feed them crackers! Skyler was so excited to give her cracker to the giraffe.
Unfortunately, his tongue wasn't quite what she expected!
But we quickly moved on, and all the kids had a ton of fun checking out the lions, bears and elephants.
Then we found the Carousel. It scared Taylor (Joe's youngest son) but Skyler? She loved it. She grinned, and laughed the entire time. Then when it started to slow down, she cried because she knew it was almost over.
All in all, we had such a wonderful time at the zoo!

Say Cheeze!!!
Do you remember getting sick of your Mommy or Daddy doing something?
I get really, REALLY sick of my Mommy's camera sometimes. In fact, I went for a few weeks without looking at the camera, because she was always pointing it at me!
But today I decided to be nice and let her take my pictures...

Lions, and Snakes and Geese, Oh My!
There's no bears at our zoo. No tigers either. At least not yet, I think they arrive in a few weeks. But there are Lions. And Geese. And Otters. And Skyler loves them all!
Today we spent about an hour at the zoo! (It was really hot out, and her nap went longer than I expected so they closed soon after we got there!
The first thing we saw when we walked in the gate was the Otter exhibit! (Thanks to my friend Marja, we noticed that the female Otter only has 3 legs! But I'm not sure why.) Skyler had a ton of fun watching them swim up and down in front of the window.
Then we were walking to see the birds, when Skyler had the silliest look on her face. She'd stopped dead in her tracks. I looked at her feet and there was a little snake. (Just a garden type snake, but she was pretty fascinated!)
Then we had to stop to sit on the animal statues. Which she had so much fun with both the camel and the turtle.
But I think her favorite exhibit, by far was the Geese! She stood there for no less than ten minutes. Jabbering away the entire time!

Such a Ham
Skyler is such a ham!
Sure, she won't look at the camera unless a small miracle has occurred. But you turn the video on her? Then she can't stop looking at herself. Luckily, it makes for some cute videos.
I tried twice this morning while we were watching the Wiggles. (I swore we'd never watch that show. But this kid loves music so much that we watch it fairly regularly.)
(No, there isn't much sound on this. Just her occasional little squeak.)

I Would Walk Five Hundred Miles...
...before I let my Mommy put me in the car again.
We are FINALLY home from our Easter trip to Nebraska. And Mommy and me spent a total of 26 hours in the car in the last two weeks. (And that doesn't count driving around town in Lincoln, which we sure did a lot too.)
But since I showed you some pictures of my Grandpa Brian on Easter I thought I should show you everybody else too.
When we went to church on Easter, Aunt Katie played with me a lot. She sings really loud, but that's ok because I could dance while she was singing. We made a pretty cool song and dance team!
Grandpa Brian and Grandma Pam were a lot of fun too. Grandma Pam didn't dance like Grandpa, or sing like Aunt Kate. But she sure did take a lot of pictures! (Although not as many as Mommy.)
Mommy takes LOTS of pictures. She had 3 different cameras while we were in Lincoln, including her new camera that she even took her picture with. I think she's crazy. Or addicted. Maybe we should get her help.
Uncle Kevin, my Daddy's brother, helped me look for Eggs on Easter Sunday. We had lots of fun, and cousin Jacob even helped me find a few too!
Grandpa Brad was a lot of fun too. He liked to read me books. But I had to be really careful when I was in my high chair, because sometimes he would tickle my toes.
Grandma Dianna was really nice to me. We played lots, but sometimes we played a little too much and one night I even ended up falling asleep while we were playing! (Ooops!)
I bet you think I talked about everyone, right? But I didn't. I missed one person.
My Daddy!! He got to come and spend the night at Grandma and Grandpa Korells house one night with us. It was lots of fun to get to see him, since he drives his truck all over.
And now we're home! My Mommy uploaded all of her pictures from our trip, HERE. If you want to print any, she is going to upload the full version to her other site later tonight! (She's a bit busy cuddling with our Kitty Cat who really missed us while we were gone.)
I hope everyone had a Happy Easter!

Future Pianist
Aunt Katie would be proud of this budding musician.
Unfortunately, I grab the camera and she gets so fascinated with watching it that she quits playing like she was!
please forgive her hair! It was such a mess, but she'd just woken up!
She's so cute anyway.
Dancin Grandpa!
I would like you to meet my Grandpa Brian.
On Easter we had lots of fun together, me and my Grandpa Brian.
