Fancy Hayden
Last night I read Hayden the Fancy Nancy book that Pappy got the girls. Fancy Nancy and her friend Bree are in an exploration club. One of the things that they do is make a pine cone bird feeder. I told Hayden that we would make one in the morning so that the birds could eat their breakfast. So, this morning Hayden dressed up like Fancy Nancy and we got to work.....
She didn't want to wear a crown, but she was still quite fancy!
She couldn't really walk down steps or down the driveway with her heals, but they sure looked fancy!
Once we picked pine cones we came back up to the house and spread peanut butter all over them. She learned how to butter bread while we were in Florida, so that skill came in handy today. No more fancy stuff-she had to strip down and get to work.
Then we rolled the pine cones in bird seed. She wanted to clean her hands in between rolling each pine cone! She didn't enjoy getting her fingers all messy.
Finally, she tried to tie the last pine cone on the hook. She needed a little help from mommy though.
Fancy Nancy would be proud!!
