Spring Break: Thursday

Day Four (Thursday):
Wake up to discover Mommy has a bad headache and needs to stay in bed (thank God for Daddy)
Go to art class and freak out and need to be picked up early
Come home and act happy as a clam to be playing with little sister, Daddy, and now-nearly-better Mommy
Run through sprinkler
Go to Lowe's for more mulch but don't bring it home because rocket scientist parents both forgot their wallets (what is it with the parents and the mulch?)
Decide to go back to art class tomorrow
Do finger painting all over the kitchen floor
Go directly to bath
Eat mac-n-cheese and green beans
Beddie-bye



{mommy says it is good not to consider your house too "precious" or else you can't have any fun in it...we agree}

Spring Break: Wednesday

Day Three (Wednesday):
Play in yard
Go to art class from 10-12 (big sister) and really like it, create lots of cool stuff
Go grocery shopping with Mommy (baby sister) and repeatedly hear voice saying, "Stop touching the food!"
Go to Lowe's to buy mulch. Mommy says mulch is very heavy and she doesn't get the whole "mulch thing" but feels compelled to do it anyway
Refuse to take nap (baby sister)
Play in yard, swing with sister
Play "baby hospital"
Help mommy cook dinner (pasta and beans)
Fall asleep on the couch (baby sister) for the first time ever (I guess that's what nap refusal gets ya)

Easter 2010

Easter this year consisted of...

One naughty bunny, who left his hair on his treats and a trail of footprints in our kitchen...

...but redeemed himself by leaving the girls some pretty nice baskets...


...complete with Elton John sunglasses.

Easter also consisted of...

One hop down the bunny trail:

One outdoor egg hunt:







One trip to the beach:














One carousel ride:



One bunny hug:

And one mommy who now officially realizes that she needs some highlights:
