Merry Monday

Maggie got a new bed over the weekend. She really likes it and is sleeping through the night. WooHooo!

Maggie had everyone try out her new bed to see how comfy it is.

The girls had a great time at dance class this morning. They like to do tricks.

Close Ups

Lucy lost her first tooth this morning. She just pushed it out with her tongue and put it under her pillow. She is so excited to have a gap.

Maggie has a cold and has been super stuffy the last couple of days. She is Not a good patient. She does not like to rest and take it easy, so it takes her longer to get over her sickies.

Lucy and Maggie helped Jon paint the front closet over the weekend. The sliding door broke some time ago, so Jon rehung it with hinges. This left some unpainted parts showing, but now it is the most beautifully painted closet in town.

Maggie turned the playroom couch into a Jazzercise stage. The girls like to practice with me. My tryout to become an instructor is 2/10.

Lucy likes to dance on stage too. The girls are in the same Ballet/Tap class at the park district and will be in a recital together this May.

Away in the Manger

Lucy and Maggie had fun putting together this nativity scene and playing with it today.

From our new laptop

Well...the fan on the graphics card on our desktop computer broke. Now we have a laptop. Let's see if the photos upload quicker using this. If they do, you might start seeing more frequent posts.

Last weekend we went to see Santa at Bass Pro. The girls had a wonderful time. P.S. it seems to be our connection and not the computer that is slowing down the uploads. Jon says new router will help. Maybe Santa will bring us one

Happy 3rd Birthday Maggie

Maggie was the STAR OF THE WEEK at school this week. She got to bring a poster, pick the snack to bring, and bring something for show and tell. She decided to bring Lucy, so Lucy read 10 in the Bed to the class. Lucy did a great job and it was great to meet and spend the morning with Maggie's class.

Maggie got to pick most of what we did today. She was quick to ask to paint. She made several Spooky Red Spider Webs.

She also played lots of Thomas and made tons of pretend birthday cakes.

For supper she chose to have macaroni AND white sauce noodles on big girl plates.

Maggie had lots of fun with her birthday crown. As the day came to a close Lucy got the stuffies. Luckily Daddy came home from a big work bye-bye late this evening. That means we will get more birthday celebrating tomorrow and even more on Saturday when we go downtown to see Good Night Moon the Musical with Ray and Linda.
