Mama picks her battles

So Proud!

Margaret is in love with her water shoes and wants to wear them everywhere.  To avoid a show-down today, I let her wear them to Kroger.

Easter 2011

"what dith?"

Before Mama took it away.

Helping Dada with candles

with "Wee" and Grandpop 

Margaret had a great Easter in town and at Birdbank.  She even helped Dada celebrate his big 3-0! She did not behave herself too well at brunch ("I want dat!" "NOOO" and throwing food were common themes), but on the upside she made it through communion with some raisins to help.

Science Museum

static!!

She was quite scared of the dinosaurs at first!

BIG morning!

The whole family went to the Science Museum today to escape the rain.  Margaret loved running around and seeing all of the other children.  She didn't learn a lot, but sure enjoyed herself. She was one tired toddler at the end of the day.  Tonight we spend the night at Birdbank.... wish us luck!

At the cabin

chalk

fun with static!

We had tons of fun this weekend and tried to enjoy the weather. Margaret is learning to use sidewalk chalk and continues to love to "cook."  She now says "hi!" and "bye!"   I took a picture of all the toys she brings with her in the bath every night. Yes, folks, that is a big plastic rake.
