Easter at the Zoo

After the girls found all the eggs that the Easter bunny left, we headed for the zoo.  the girls had a great time. They got to ride a camel and brush the baby goats.
 
Molly's all time favorite food is blueberries.  I never had noticed before that when goats poop, it comes out in little nuggets like rabbit poop.  When Molly saw one of the goats poop, she thought she had died and gone to blueberry heaven!  All those blueberries all over the ground , just there for her eating pleasure!  I quickly explained that these were goat poop and we don't eat it. The disappointment on her face.....priceless.  She was still amazed and just kept watching anyway.
It was a beautiful day and we all had a good time and the best part was that Summer didn't get car sick.  Mommy remembered to give her the motion sickness pill in plenty of time.

Coloring Easter Eggs and 5K

This morning I walked a 5K with my friend Grace.  It was to support the beautification of the the lake walking trails.  It was cold and windy, but we had a nice time and racked up 10 miles for our week.
 
When I got home the girls were waiting to color Easter Eggs, so I got them cooked and away we went.  They turned out pretty, with not too much spilling of the egg color.
 
The girls are pretty excited about the Easter Bunny coming tonight!  We plan to go to the zoo tomorrow, it's supposed to be a nice day.

Summer and Molly

Molly bumped her eye when she fell onto the coffee table while we were visiting Grandpa.
 
Summer and Molly Love to be outside.  We have tulips blooming. Summer and Mommy planted them last fall.

Spring

Spring is finally here and the girls are so happy to be able to play outside more.
Molly enjoys the sand box and Summer is having fun learning to ride her bike.
 
We have decided to start Summer in violin lessons in the fall.  Her pediatrician's wife is a Suzuki violin teacher who also plays in the Asheville symphony.  Summer and I visited a few lessons and Summer is very excited about it.  We'll try it for a while and see if she likes it.  She loves music, so I think she will enjoy it and hopefully be good at it too.
 
Molly has had several weeks of being potty trained.  She still wears a pull up at night but other wise is doing great with it.  She loves being a big girl like her Sissy. The girls wear the same size underwear, in fact, since Summer stared wearing them, she has never needed a bigger size, she has a tiny tushy.
