Easter is for baptism

Our nephew Tag was getting baptized the Saturday before Easter so the girls and mom headed up to Oklahoma to celebrate with him. It is always fun to see family. Rob was still at his trial in California and was sad to miss it. Earlier that week we made sure to get some eggs dyed. After dying them, we realized that they were only very softly boiled and were expired so my friend LE let the kids throw them at her fence which of course was followed by spraying down the fence with the hose. They loved all of it.

Marathon kids

Ava completes her 26.2 miles this school year and got to go to the completion celebration of marathon kids. Rob was out of town so I took the other girls too and it was fun to get to cheer Ava on as she ran her final lap.

What in the world is that?

To bed to bed

Every night when its time for the girls to go to bed Rob gives them a piggy-back ride. Or at least thats what it started as. It has morphed into them asking for all sorts of thigs from an upside down spin ride to an elephant toilet ride. Rob gets creative and makes funny sounds and might chase me through the house when ots a dinosaur ride they want all with one of the girls on his back. They love it and sometimes love to ask for off the wall things just to see what he'll do. Tonight Charlotte asked for a triple valentines day carpet wheel ride. Luckily for Rob, before he could ponder what the heck to do for that, she said "It sad raaar-eeee raaar-eeee and flaps its wings." And with that, the triple valentine carpet wheel flew her up to bed. 

Lately

Here are a few things we've been up to lately. 

Wearing matching pants 

Visiting a big cat rescue - yes that's a tiger back there. 

Wearing the biggest bows we can find. 

Finding cozy spots to read

Workin on some valentines. 

Freezing our tushies off in the frigid weather

Rocking double pig tails - you turn one and there's just big girl milestones happening all over the place. 

Celebrating the 100th day of school. 

Those are just a few things. I could post daily about the funny, crazy, wild, sweet, stuff that happens around here - but then I wouldn't have time to enjoy it!
