Birthday First

First things First Molly's 4! Yes, yes, almost a month ago, but I'm kind of slow these days.  Her party was lots of fun and she had a great time whooping it up and bouncing around with her friends.  Thanks to everyone who was able to come!


Notice the hello kitty band-aid on her elbow.  I had to hand out several of those during the party.  I'm pretty sure that means it was a success.
I'm going to be glad when all the candy is gone from my house.

We had a great Easter, with lots of excitement.  Molly informed me in the morning that "we have a lot to do today Mama!" Somehow, we made it through.
I was surprised at how good Maggie was at finding eggs.  She's only 19 months and she found at least 2 eggs all on her own without any adult or 4 year old guidance. 
Victorious!

"Melmo!"
I love how before I was a parent, I told myself that I would somehow resist getting my kids "licenced character" toys/clothes. Yeah, that was stupid.  It starts with Elmo, you just LOVE it when they declare with such certainty "Melmo!" but it's a slippery slope straight to Lalaloopsy land.  I will swear to you right now, that I will never have a Bratz or a monster high doll in my house.  They're horrible!  So no one should be tempted to ever buy her one, I will throw it in the trash immediately.

Chwubby Bwunny!
So my mom had bought the girls little matching dresses and I wanted to take a cute picture of them together so we could remember our supper happy Easter.  I tried to get Molly to cooperate but she kept saying she didn't want to take a picture with Maggie because she was jealous.  I guess it was too much that Maggie had 4 whole eggs out of the 20 or so items that were hidden.  So I told her to show me her best "jealous" faces.  Here they are:

Pah-thetic!
You can see that she recovered.  Not enough however to actually take the picture with Maggie.
She had TWO dresses.  Lucky girl with 2 doting grandmothers

Jonny also took her to the country club egg hunt, but Maggie and I stayed home so she could get a nap in before an awesome dinner at Granny's.
