Hello Spring....

The weather couldn't be better here and we are soaking it all up... It is spring break for us this next week and I cant wait to spend it all outside doing fun things and getting my back yard ready to get done.....Yeah for grass..... Anyways, Clint has been working all weekend so today I asked Molly what she wanted to do and she said to go on a picnic so thats what we did.  First, we went and fed some ducks and sweet Maggie wanted to jump in and grab them all, she finally just sat down and watched and talked to all the ducks. Molly laughed and laughed at the silly ducks diving after the bread she threw... Then we headed to her favorite park and had a picnic and played. I think both girls swang in the swings for about 45 minutes no joke. My arms should be a little buffer after pushing them the whole time.. It was so fun and I can't wait to spend all of next week soaking in this nice spring weather...

Yesterday pushing babies outside

 

Molly insisted I take a picture of her "lucy" shirt, when this went on sale I new I had to buy it for her and she is in love, I was washing it today and she kept asking to wear it. She loves it so much!

 

Lots and lots of ducks to feed

 

A little picnic at the park

Molly is such a great big sister, Maggie likes to go by herself, but Molly wanted to go together and Maggie didn't seem to mind!

Big Girls...

My sweet little girls have gotten so big this past little while especially this past week..Maggie is more of a toddler and Molly more and more of a little girl. They are both learning to much and acting so old I dont like it one bit- okay its fun to see them learn and grow, but I want them to just stop already!!!

Maggie is a little monkey, she is climbing in, on, through and around EVERYTHING!!! She is so funny and its funny to watch her figure out how to accomplish the climb or obstacle in front of her. She somehow managed to get herself into a little "baby cage" as Molly called it....

 

O my heck, this weather has been just what we needed- I have been dying to get the girls and go to the park.. Today it just worked out that way and we spent a good hour or two at the park...Maggie did NOT want to get out of the swings until I put her on the teeter totter and then she wouldn't get off of that!

 

This is a big deal for Molly- since she was little she has had a huge fear of big slides, one time she flipped on it and like came out upside down and has been scared since. Well she went down them last time at the park and couldnt stop talking about going down the big slide today and she did. I was so proud of her. She still wont go down the tube ones though...baby steps I guess!

 

Maggie had  thing with the wood chips, she would pick them up and watch them fall from her hands over and over and over again.

 

This came in a box we had so we decorated it like a robot upon Molly's request she kept going around saying... "I am a robot, beep, beep, beep" over and over again in a robot voice...Maggie's face is so rad in the back ground...

 

This is what was in the big box... a new car seat for little miss Maggie, she is barely 20lbs, but we got  the go ahead to flip her forward-lets just say she is 100% happier this way and thank goodness for that... Look how happy she is to be in her new seat!

 

Car Seat Buddies

 

Molly looks so grown up lately and has really started to act more grown up too. She is so funny and loves to help me with everything especially the dishes and laundry. Love this cute girl...

 

We had a dance party this morning and Maggie LOVED being dressed up she thought she was so cool 

(don't mind Jessie flying past Maggie's head)

 

This girl is even more girlie than Molly, I am in trouble

 

A little race to end a great morning..

This, That, and the Other....

The past week has seemed to just fly right by, thank goodness since the week before drug on for what seemed like forever.... Every time this year I am so ready for school to be done and summer to start, maybe its the funk from the weather being so crummy and cold, but alas this week the weather has been awesome. We have played outside every day and I think it makes a huge difference totally helped me out of the slump we were in... Molly and Maggie have both been so happy and sweet this week. Molly has wanted to help me with every task(laundry, dishes, picking up toys) and it has been so nice- she hasn't woken Maggie up once, and during Maggie's nap didnt totally destroy the place. Maggie plays a little more on her own, but still wants to be at my feet all day every day, but she has been happy the whole time and not whiny, she has been sleeping good at night/day, eating good, done with those nasty Iron drops she had to take and all around just a happy girl...... So I would consider this week a big fat success in the motherhood department!!!!   So with that being said here is just a bunch of random pictures from this past week!!!

Molly has LOVED playing with "Mr. Potato Head" lately and LOVES doing this with the piece!

 It did like a few Sunday's ago it was way slushy, but Molly couldn't wait to get out in it anyways...

 Right after baths these girls are the funnest, so happy and ready to play a little before prayers and bed

 Maggie absolutely LOVES the tub, if its on and she is not in it she is grunting/growling and trying to climb in...

 This is what I walked in on in the play room yesterday as we were cleaning

 Maggie got this wagon for her Birthday and I would have to say BEST PRESENT EVER!!!!!! Both girls love it so much in fact when we walk out in the garage to get in the car Mag wants in it so bad she throws a mini fit just before getting in the car, until I tell her we will ride in it when we get home then she is fine!

 These pictures were takin within like 30 seconds of each other- Man this kid changes moods so dang fast, and that grumpy Molly face hasn't even really been around this week...........She's been more like the other 3 pictures...

 Both my girls just love Ally Lola, its going to be a sad day when she starts first grade and we don't tend her anymore...

 Mindi had a Crimper at her house so I decided to try it out on Molly- she looked so 80's, but so darn cute at the same time. She loved it!

 I just love sleeping babies.....

 Swinging at Grandma's- Maggie got a swing like this for her birthday, but we have to get some extra rope to hang it up, that's my goal this next week. She loves the swing so much...

 This is Mol and Al's favorite thing to do in the mornings- makes snakes out of play-dough and then cute them up into tiny pieces...

 Sweet little T-Mac is the little boy that we tend too- he is 3 months older than Maggie- they were both eating Teddy Grahams in this picture.......Most the time they really don't even bother each other, but every once in a while they have it out over some toy and its pretty entertaining to witness-T-Mac usually gives up and Mag wins,what a gentlemen.

 

Maggie still looks so little to me, I cant believe she is really a 1 year old...
