April

Alisha says: April fun.

Jade loved playing at the splash pad. She would walk right over all the jets while giggling and waving her hands around.

We made a trip out to the arboretum.

Our Argentine Giant cactus had a ton of beautiful blooms this year. The flowers only last one day so you have to catch them when they open.

For earth day we went to a ladybug party where they released a zillion lady bugs. Some of the kids were covered in them.

Still getting into everything.

Jade kitchen destruction. 

She likes to stand right in front of the tv and rest her arms and chin on the bin and watch tv.

She was trying suck on her toes while riding in her car seat. I found one of Skye doing the same thing at about the same age.

Easter Weekend

Alisha says: We had a really great Easter weekend. Well actually I guess it was the whole week cause the festivities started on Thursday at preschool and lasted through Sunday. Skye is at such a cute age where she gets really excited for things. She had an Easter party at preschool and when I picked her up she was sooo excited to show me this one sparkly egg that she said was "super beautiful".

Then on Saturday we took the girls to the Val Vista beach pool where they had fun playing in the sand and swimming. After some initial nervousness on Skye's part she quickly remembered her swimming/floating skills and was doing some great swimming. Jade loved the water. She just started swim lessons and is learning to roll onto her back and float. So far she has cried through every lesson though.

On Sunday morning her and Jade had a fun time hunting for eggs in the backyard. Jade quickly figured out how to open them and was eating the M&M's faster that I would have liked her to. We followed it up with a nice day at church and some yummy lunch.
