One morning Parker woke up early- so I decided it was a great day for Starbucks. I had a gift card so this made it even greater. And for a little fun....the girls got their own little milk.
That morning- we had a breakfast of scrambled eggs and blueberries. Grace loves eggs. Actually- she loves most things. :)

The next day was a beautiful day and we headed to the park. Just caught a few pics.....

One afternoon I let the girls paint.
Grace was loving this. I think when Parker was this age I took a lot more time doing things with her. And doing this- made me realize I really want to start doing more things.
She can kind of get out of control quickly.....but on this day I was able to keep it mostly contained. It helps that Parker is older and will listen to my instructions most of the time. ;)
I guess she thought painting the side of the box would be fun.....

Another day- we did these little sticker pages. I love these activity boxes. The girls got a few for Christmas and I hadn't really brought them out until this week. Great last minute activities that the girls eat up- and no planning or prepping on my part. It's a win-win!

I got a fairly large container of kiwi from Costco and spilt it with Kristin. It was so good. I think I'll go back this week and get another one just for us! I didn't realize how good it would taste and was afraid it would go to waste. But now I don't think it will.

An afternoon of playing games and puzzles with Parker during Grace's nap time. I think she's slowly but surely understanding how to really play this game. I let her win some.....but sometimes I win, too. This is the only way she'll learn!
She won!
Parker got this large ballerina floor puzzle back in December from Grandad and Mimi. She's always loved it...and I remember the first few times we started doing this, she needed quite a bit of help- which is totally normal. But now I see that she can pretty much do the whole thing by herself. Just fun to watch her grow and learn.

Yes- that is cheddar cheese you see there in our cupboard. This is my brain

We went to a different park on another day so Parker could ride her bike around the trail.
Lovey and Mulan were along for the ride, of course.
This gal was a little on the whiney side....which not usually the case. She's really only like this when she's tired. So that's an easy fix!

So our house is a wreck! I'm trying to buckle down this weekend and get some organizing done. One of my biggest issues is finding certain articles of clothing when I need them. Even when I have all of the laundry done....I still can't find things. So frustrating! I finally cleaned out Parker's drawers and organized them. I explained to her where everything goes....she seemed kind of into it. She even proudly showed Geoff. I know, I know- it won't last. But I still took the opportunity to try to teach her.
