Easter Eggs



We dyed 18 Easter eggs. I think Camille ate most of them. She loves them. Some mornings she had 2 of them. hehehe I know too many eggs are not good but at this point they are like the chocolate. Just eat it and get it out of my house so I don't have to hear about them anymore. I will have to hard boil eggs for her for breakfast. Wonder if plain old white will have the same appeal? What 2 year old likes hard boiled eggs???

Easter



















G&PP were here for Easter so of course we had a great weekend. The girls love all the Easter activities. We also went to Mimi's house for Easter brunch and G&PP went with us so the kids had all their favorite peeps in one place!!

school night

Avery loves her school!!! The other night they were having a parent education night. They were having a behavioral speaker coming to present to anyone that wanted to come. They were providing child care during it. I was not going to attend bc although we of course have behavioral problems it's nothing unmanageable but Av wanted to go. They must have talked about it at school bc she wanted to go and I could not talk her out of it. None of her close friends were even going but that didn't matter to her. She wanted to go back and play. So we did. Turned out to be a very nice night. Even though Camille or Everett do not go to school there they went into the classroom happily and played for the hour and a half I was gone. Av went into the "5 day 4's" classroom and was very happy to play and have the night at school. They provided dinner so not only did I not have to cook but I also got to sit in peace and eat my dinner with adults and not have to get up 50 times during my dinner tending to the every whim of my 3 monsters. The speaker was amazing and although I didn't learn anything new it did help to re-energize the methods I had gotten lax on.

ladybugs everywhere

Camille does not like bugs. At all. They are all ladybugs in her book and they are fine to look at but she does not dare touch. We have a lot of caterpillars at the parks and such right now. A lot of the kids will pick them up and let them crawl on their hands but not my girls. They like looking but no touching. The other day at the park Camille ran up to me and said, "that little girl has a ladybug." heheheh it was a caterpillar. Then on the slide at home she wanted to go down it but called me over bc there were "ladybugs" on it. They were ants. She would not go down it until I wiped each and every one of them off of it. She spotted them all, telling her it was clean when it wasn't didn't work. She seems tough but I guess she's just a girly-girl at heart.

baby boy

Everett is full fledge sitting now. He has been pretty unstable with it until today really. Today all the sudden he was able to sit wo falling once the 45 minutes we were at Camille's music this morning. Then all day he would sit and play w us. It's so cute. He's such a little boy now. So sad too. Watching my last baby learn to not be a baby anymore. They just grow up way too fast. He is eating anything and everything now too. Any baby food I get out and give him he will gobble up. He is going to eat me out of house and home. He eats lunch and dinner so far. We will add breakfast soon I guess. He is really just the cutest baby ever. Every Thursday when we go to Av's hbr he just has all the other moms eating out of his hands. He just hams it up for them and they all seem to love him. They all want to hold him and talk to him. He gives everyone the biggest smile. Such a sweet baby.

Dentist

I took all 3 kids to the dentist yesterday for the girls to get their teeth cleaned. It was Camille's first time ever. They did a great job. Av went first and Camille watched very closely. Then Camille hopped happily into the big chair. She looked so cute and little in it. They both got their teeth counted, cleaned, checked for cavities and got a protective seal on them. No cavities! No loose teeth for Av yet either. It was a great checkup!
