Happy Spring Chicks!

We have some pretty happy girls this week!  We took them on a family "adventure" to feed the ducks at U of R, Daddy took them swimming at the YMCA, Mommy took them to the Children's Museum, Gigi and Babu came over for a sleepover, they've played outside everyday in the gorgeous spring weather, they had egg hunts and Easter parties at school and the Easter Bunny comes in less than a week!

Mommy/Daddy date night in Charlottesville for a Darden Military Association dinner! 

Since the pool isn't open yet, we decided to dust off the baby pool!  The girls were out there for hours!

Avery LOVES being outside!

She spends most of the time staring off at all of the new sights and sounds!

The girls are so happy for warm weather and nice fluffy grass!

Little Mommy, watching over her baby sister.  

Avery and I finally got to go on our first stroller walk together around the neighborhood!!  She loved it!

Last picture in front of the egg tree.  It now has so many leaves on it, you can't see the eggs anymore!!

Hailey loves pretending to be a "spring bee!"  She buzzes and flies around the house all day long in her old Halloween costume!

We went on a family walk to the University of Richmond to feed the ducks over the weekend.  It's not as easy as it used to be to take the girls for a walk, but we had so much fun with our "stroller parade of girls!"

We made Daddy push the big girls!

Hailey had no fear when it came to feeding the ducks and walked right up to them!

Lainey preferred to watch from a safer location!

Eventually she at least got out of the stroller long enough for me to snap a picture!

Hailey brought home the "sharing bag" from preschool this week and decided to "share" her whiskers (aka stitches) with her class.  The kids were fascinated with them! 

Making spring cupcakes!

The Easter Bunny sent his helper, "Hoppy" to our house to keep an eye on the girls before Easter.  They love finding him in all of his hiding spots each morning!

Avery is excited about her first Easter basket from the Easter Bunny!

The girls had so much fun at the Children's Museum!  We spent almost 4 hours there!!

Museum munchkins!

Avery was happy to get out of her stroller and roll around in the baby section!

Hailey must have rode the train 50 times!!

The girls spent an hour in the craft room and we brought home an entire grocery bag full of artwork!

Making Mommy dinner at their restaurant.  

Time for dress up and a performance on the stage!

Hailey was in her element!  Definitely think we need to get this girl in some performing arts classes ASAP!

No trip to the Children's Museum is complete without a stop at the candy shop!
