Easter Break

Our Easter break is coming to an end.  We had a week off, full of friends and family.  On Tuesday we went to the Sacramento Zoo with our friends.  The girls loved looking at all the animals, running around with friends and riding the carousel and train.

 On Wednesday we had a play date with Auntie Lilli and cousins Drew, AJ and Christopher.  On Thursday we were going to have a play date with friend Luke, but colds kept them from coming over so we kept busy with dressing up and playing cowgirls.

 On Friday we had the joy of Dedushka and Grammalene coming for a visit.  The girls kept them very busy at the park.  We always love our visits with them!

Easter Morning

 We had a lovely Easter morning.  The girls were so excited to see the Easter Bunny visited the house and brought lots of goodies for the girls.  Maggie dove right into her chocolate bunny.  She got very upset when I tried to take it away.

 

Kate was so excited to get some more Pinkalicious books for her collection.

 

Such pretty girls in their Easter dresses, ready for church!

 

After church we headed to Gramma and Papa's house for an egg hunt. We had to do our hunt inside since there was a rainstorm over night. Both Maggie and Kate LOVED searching for their eggs. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After the egg hunt, the sun came out and we spent time in the backyard blowing bubbles, kicking balls, exploring and picnicking.

 

 

 

We love you Gramma and Papa!

Recent pictures of the girls

Here are a few recent pictures of the girls.  They are just so amazing!

 

In this picture Kate was tickling Maggie's back.

 

 Maggie was taking Will's slippers for a spin around the living room and doing a good job not tripping.  She was very determined!

 Big smile!

 Kate all in pink!  (Big surprise!)

 Laundry basket ride!

 We just purchased a double-stroller and the girls were thrilled to go for a ride in the living room.  They wanted their dolls along for the ride so they each pushed their doll strollers.  It made turning a bit tricky! ;-)

Our Miss Maggie-Pie

Maggie turns 18 months on February 23!  I can't believe how big and grown-up she is getting.  Maggie is talking a lot these days and loves to say "Mommy", "Daddy", and "Date" (Kate).  Maggie has a very different personality from her sister.  She is our little firecracker that likes to get into everything and express her opinion loudly.  She is so sweet, beautiful and bright too.  We love her so much!!!  Here are a few pictures of our Maggie-Pie from the past month.

 

Maggie picked out this entire outfit and asked Daddy to help her put it on.  Such a pretty Princess!

 Maggie has no problem navigating the park.  She loves to climb and slide, but she is terrified of the swings...go figure!

 Hmmmm, I guess I should have locked my bathroom cabinets.

Pinkalicious Fun!

These goofy pictures are for the grandparents!  We discovered the official Pinkalicous website and tons of fun Pinkeriffic activities.  Needless to say, Kate was thrilled!

Car wash time!

Kate was a big car wash help today!  She helped Will wash and dry our car and did a great job!  Maggie was fascinated by the water and the soap suds but she spent most of her time watching her big sister and daddy do all the work.

 Time to splash in the water!

 Kate is so grown up and such a big helper!

 Maggie also decided that sliding in the wood chips like a sledding hill was pretty fun too!
