More Fun At The Park

Earlier in the month we had some lovely warm summer like days and spent a lot of time at the park. Now the weather seems to be back to more typical Oregon spring weather but it was a nice preview os summer days to come. The girls love going to the park and could spend hours there! Lilly is constantly pushing herself to do harder big kid stuff at the park.

 

Ice Cream Rewards

Lilly's parent-teacher conference was very positive as well as her pre-school report card scores so we had to go out for Ice Cream to celebrate.

Vivi was thrilled because she didn't have to do anything to earn ice cream too. At one point Vivi noticed a lady waiting outside the ice cream shop and loudly told her "You go inside, get you ice cream!" She was very concerned about someone missing out on such delicious treats.

 



 

Lilly was excited because you can pick all your own toppings and she loaded hers up with candies and sprinkles. We are very proud of how hard Lilly is working at school and doing so well academically and socially. She is growing up so much!

Just Cruisin'

The girls had to check out Grandmommy's sports car when she was visiting. They really liked that the car was closer to their size! Such silly little sweeties!

 

Flight Attendant Lilly

When Lilly's class was studying transportation a parent, who is a pilot, brought in some cardboard cut outs for the kids to pose with. All of Lilly's teachers found her picture hillarious and the most realistic looking out of all the kids, what a funny little girl!

 

 

 

Coloring Easter Eggs

Well we didn't document it well on the blog but of course we celebrated Easter and the girls had a blast with all related Easter events. Here they are coloring Easter Eggs. Vivi was very confused as to why there were so many cups of juice and she was not allowed to drink them. After all the eggs were colored she was still determined to get to drink all the juice and kept asking "I drink juice now?" She was pretty disappointed in the end!

 

Butterflies

This spring we raised caterpillars and watched them become butterlies again in the butterfly box Ryan made me MANY years ago! The girls loved watching the caterpillars and butterflies and Lilly named them. The best part was watching one of them unroll and roll its long tongue for 10 minutes straight, Lilly was in awe!

 

Of course I didn't manage to get pictures of the girls setting them free or anything really cool but we had fun raising them and studying them. Here were our butterflies from this year.

 

Car Trip to Mountain Visit

If I ever find the camera charger again I will make sure to add some pictures from our February Wagoner's trip to the mountains, another fun tradition the girls really enjoyed!

 

On the way to and from the mountains Lilly treated each hill like part of a rollercoaster, no matter how small it was. Vivi wasn't sure what was going on since she is too short to see the hills but she made to watch Lilly and put her hands in the air and said "Wee" each time too. Such silly little girls!
