Turns out February 21st was a picture worthy day. Check out all of the excitement:
My Little Pony Parade
-all animals invited-
Maren's pretty proud of her creation.
I brought our slide inside since it's one of Lilly's favorite activities of late. I didn't think it would work bare bottomed but she slides down just fine.
Yesterday was President's Day which means- sales. I stock up on clothes for the kids in their sizes and up if I can find a good deal. I mostly buy for Maren because she is growing so fast. She is so tall she's about out of her 4T clothes before she turns 4. The girls picked through my findings. Maren picks out her own outfits. She's a big fan of leggings, tights, and skirts.
Lilly decided to try on some size 6 summer clothes, I remember this stage now. She wants to dress herself and gets frustrated easily.
After nap it was outside to play. We had some nice wet snow and I thought we'd make a snowman. I of course was the one interested in the building. Lilly just wanted to knock it over. Maren wanted to make it a dress out of leaves.
She worked hard on the dress, like it?!
We all ate carrots. Maren is convinced the snowman's will be eaten by a deer. She may be right.
Lilly was getting cold and Maren got very into building a "hermie hut" under the pine tree with sticks. I brought Lilly in and Maren played contently under there for a long time. It's so nice to see her get involved with something that she enjoys.
