Not a lot happened this week. I tried to keep our schedule free and relaxed since we'll be busy with family and traveling very soon.
Now that school is out, Lily's friends are home to play all through the day. We had three playdates this week. Lily's buddy Claire came over for a tea party. The princesses dressed in their finest and hosted the party in their playhouse under the stairs. The menu they ordered included: macaroni, cherry tomatoes, cucmbers, strawberries, and chocolate cake for dessert. They had a great time - and Mommy was glad to see the chocolate cake go. Tommy had to stay upstairs with Mommy because he was not invited to dine with the princesses. He felt like such a big boy eating his noodles and broccoli with a fork all by himself.
The weather has been perfect. Mommy treated the kids to a snow cone after a long day of errands. The snow shack even charged us for one cone but split it into two cups, which made sharing easier. Tommy got lots of bites from his sisters. They keep asking when we can go back for more.
Annie and Tommy hopped in bed with us for some Sunday morning snuggles. Love these two so much!
The kids have been asking to ride the mower with Daddy. Now that he's got the hang of our new one, he let the girls take turns riding this weekend. The kids were all smiles. Tommy was interested but still too afraid to actually give it a go. We're sure he won't let anyone else ride the mower next summer. Daddy better be ready to give lots of rides.
Our local grocery store offers free ice cream cones to children under 10. Tommy devoured his in record time when we went shopping on Saturday. I wasn't even out of the produce section and the ice cream was all gone!
We got our surprise package from Puna! The girls love their dress-up nightgowns. The minute the box was open they ran to put them on and wore them all day long. Thank you for the fun Puna!
So happy the box arrived before your trip!
