Easter Preparations

We have had another busy week. Monday we did a make up gym and had fun in I.F. hitting a few stores before we grocery shopped. Tuesday we spent more time shopping for a washer. On Wednesday we bought the washer I looked at on Monday and loved, should have bought it then and I would have saved a lot of time. Also on Wednesday, me and Kaitlyn went in and got our hair cut. She cut it shorter than last time, but not as short as she wanted it. She wants to cut it about two inches long. I asked why one day and was a little surprised by the answer "mom then I will look like a boy, and I want to look like a boy". I shouldn't be surprised since her best friend is a boy. Can we say therapy?...
That evening we spent with Ky's family. Gene has been in town for awhile but this is the first time Sydney has been able to join us. We had fun playing the wii, board games, eating pizza, and just visiting.
Chantelle is such a good sport. Kaitlyn is covering her ears. She hates the buzzing sound.

The Baldwin girls, minus Anna.

I think Chantelle got some good photos of Mahon playing the wii. Kyle took some inappropriate photos of the dog... I won't post those! We had a fun night. Thanks Chantelle and Chris for letting us crash your house!
Tonight we dyed Easter eggs. The girls have been looking forward to this all week. However, when I gave Kaitlyn the clear crayon to color with she said "mom I need one I can see!"She used a yellow crayon for hers.
We then disposed of our leftover dye the only way possible- in a snowdrift! We have a bigger one in the backyard but it was a little dark.
And this is what I found Kami doing while we were busy with the eggs. I hope she didn't eat too many! Like father, like daughter!
We have had a fun couple of days and even had the chance to see Sydney one last time. The whole gang came up for lunch today. We had a nice visit. I think the girls are sleeping good, and will (hopefully) be rested for tomorrow. Tomorrow will be just as busy as the rest of the week, maybe busier.
Oh, and I forgot the highlight of our week. Thursday was mom's day in Kindergarten. I had so much fun with Ashley. We had "tea", danced, and ate lunch. It was a nice break to relax and join the Kindergarten life for awhile. I love her so much and love spending one-on-one time with her. She is growing so fast. How many more of these moments will I have?
