May 7 & 8 - Muffins for Mom, Baby Chicks & Sisters

May 8 - Muffins for Mom


\
Natalie & I getting ready to leave for her Muffins For Moms event at her school, put on by the Father's Forum.


We had milk and muffins and a lot of fun! We went to the library and read a Mommy book. I read some to Natalie and she read some of the book to me. I dropped her off at her classroom and she began her school day! What a wonderful morning we had together!


Oh wait. She wanted me to meet her 14 babies, I mean, chicks, that were hatched that week in her classroom. They had the eggs incubating for 21 days and Natalie was a Mother of 14! She was so proud of her chickies and such a Mommy! They were leaving that day to go to the farm and she was so sad!

May 7

They girls wanted to wear their first day of school dresses since it was nice out again. So, here they are all dolled up and just as beautiful as ever!


Look at Natalie's gap in her mouth...so cute! And Amanda's expression!


OK, so it was after bath time and the girls were playing and I caught Natalie staring out the window and Amanda brushing her hair. I couldn't resist getting the camera and capturing this moment! Does is get any cuter than this?

I love my girls!

Paige came out to Grandma's for the day and did manis and pedis on everyone. Donna gave me a mani/pedi for my bday so I wasn't missing that! Natalie, Amanda, Catey and Sidney got mini manis too!

April 29 - Busy Day & May 2 Home Depot

May 2 - Home Depot * Kids Workshop * Mother's Day Wheelbarrow

Daddy took the girls along w/Uncle Robbie and Auntie Lisa and the kids to work on a Mother's Day Wheelbarrow project! The girls told me they were going to Wal-Mart so I wouldn't know where they were going....little did they know, that I knew what they were up to, but boy did they think they were somethin'!

April 29 - Busy Day

The day started with an appt. for Natalie with the ENT Specialist at Children's Memorial. Consult with the Dr. Confirmed surgery for June 23. More testing w/the audiologist and off to the McDonald's inside the hospital. Always a fun treat for her...a MC DONALD'S INSIDE THE HOSPITAL! So cool!

Stopped at the oasis to go potty and Natalie got a couple of bouncy balls


Back to drop Daddy off at work and fit a Costco trip in and McD's for play time with the cousins and drinks and snacks. Thanks Grandma!

Hey, wait, that's 2 trips to McDonald's within hours of each other, so bad! Oh well!
