Another Beautiful Day

After a very cool weekend, Tuesday was just absolutely beautiful. We had to go outside and take a ride in the wagon.

One of us had to pick flowers...

And one of us just had to enjoy the sun...

CHEEEEEESSSSEEEEEEE

Two adorable girls saying "cheese" for the camera.

Friday Fun on a Rainy Day

Friday was a rainy, yucky mess, but my mom and I and the girls were bound and determined to get out in it!! We went to the mall to look for a shirt for me to wear in our upcoming choir concert. I had already purchased two different ones on Thursday, but my husband was not that fond of them. Ladies, my husband can dress me better than I can!! I know that is strange, but that is what you get when he worked in retail for 14 years. Anyway, so I was on a mission. Because Macy and Molly were both great at the stores, we rode the carousel after lunch. They both loved it. I will post Molly's picture later because the picture is on my mother's camera because my battery went dead after Macy rode.

When we got home, Macy asked to "pee pee in the potty" and the prize she picked out was a water color book. This was the first time she had ever done this. It thought it was safe because all she paints with is water. VERY CLEAN!!

Reading Time

I have known for a while now how much Macy loves books. She wants at least 2-3 books read before bed and she always brings several in from her room throughout the day to read. I guess she now loves reading them herself...although the stories are a little different than what is written. She makes them up and they are hilarious! She even turns the pages as she reads and points to the pictures. I love it!

Swim Day

Wednesday's are swimming lessons for Macy and she just loves the water...especially when they get to go down the slide into the pool! Too fun!

TROUBLE!!

Not sure if Molly learned this on her own or if big sister taught her!! I have a climber!

A Girl After Mommy's Own Heart

Crazy how much your kids really watch what you do and say...prime example with the sunglasses!

Tuesday Playdate

Macy and Molly were excited to once again get together with their buddies. We went to another mommy's house to play on their brand new swingset. I think she said it took her husband 2 or 3 weeks to get it put together...very worth it!! The girls all had a wonderful time. I couldn't believe they actually posed for this picture. It was great!

Looks like they are having some good girl talk!

Monday Play Time

Every Monday at our local Barnes and Noble is story and craft time. We have gone before (previously posted) and had a great time again.

We then went to Walmart for a few things and both girls were rewarded for being so good. Macy got a special reward for asking to go to the potty and she not only pottied, but pooped as well. That is big time accomplishment!!

We also played outside after the girl's nap. It is finally so pretty outside. They played with bubbles, one of Macy's favorite things to do. They are really starting to play well together.

Fun at Nomie's House

While we were in Savannah, Molly stayed with my mother (Nomie). She had so much fun being the center of attention, as did Macy with us. I just got some pictures from my mother of Molly while she stayed with them. My mom took her to eat mexican and Molly was so tired that she just laid her head down on the table.

Later that weekend, our really good friend, LeaAnn, brought her kids, Micah and Eric, over to play. Molly loves Eric.

A Beautiful Spring Day

It has been raining so much here that I thought my girls would never be able to play on their swingset again. Today...they finally could. Oh what fun we had in the back yard. I got some really cute pictures.

Shark Attack

It seems as though our youngest child is dangerous when she eats sweets. A few days ago, we gave her strawberry shortcake and then today we gave her blackberry cobbler. She absolutely attacks the spoon. It is hard to get the essence in a picture, but just try to imagine a 15 month child running across the room and biting the spoon as if it is going to get away!!

The Garage Revival Band

Last night, my mom and I went to see a local band perform to benefit our local humane society. A man from our church who plays the saxaphone has headed up this band for about 20 years. A good friend of ours, Stephanie, also sings with the band. Fun was had by all in the room...dancing, singing, eating. It was great.

Random Pictures from Today

Macy has gotten in the habit of getting in the bed with us around 5:00 every morning. We never wanted our children to sleep in the bed with us, but we really don't mind when she comes in and snuggles for the rest of the morning. This morning, however, was different. I thought it was strange that she wasn't in the bed when I woke up. I guess she didn't want to bother us...

Macy absolutely loves corn on the cob...doesn't want it any other way!

Poor Molly...I guess she was just worn out. She didn't care that the TV was blaring UT Girls basketball, all the lights were on, and her sister was running crazy around the house.

New dessert for Macy...strawberry shortcake...a HUGE HIT!
