Easter Morning

The night before Easter the girls left out two carrots hoping the Easter Bunny would find the yummy treat and stop by to drop off some special Easter Baskets. And you know what....the Easter Bunny did just that! Sara and Emily were so excited to see that the Easter Bunny left them Super Dora Spy Glasses (aka sun glasses), new Dora beach towels and a rainbow lollipop! The Easter Bunny also left over 300 Easter Eggs in the back yard for the children to hunt later that day!




Domestic Divas!

The girls were very busy last week getting ready for our Easter party. They decorated colorful eggs, made delicious sugar cookies in the shape of Easter eggs and helped Mommy make some yummy chocolate chip cookies! I think Martha Stewart would be pleased with the girls baking skills as well as their final products!




Flower Show with Grandma!

Thanks Grandma for taking us to the Flower Show! We had so much fun smelling the beautiful flowers and seeing all the pretty colors! We hope one day Mommy will learn how to keep flowers alive in our yard.




Styling in Vermont!

Thanks to "Auntie" Courtney...Sara and Emily showed Vermont how to be divas! Sara and Emily could not wait to get to Vermont a few weekends ago so Courtney could paint their toes and finger nails. Now the only person that can paint their toes and fingers is Courtney so Sara and Emily will be making weekly appointments with their new manicurist!

Home Depot...great marketing!





The first of every month, Home Depot holds a children's workshop...for free! The girls, Grandpa and Mommy went to try it out the other day and we had so much fun! The girls were able to build their very own bird house. They were able to use hammers, screwdrivers, nails, glue, and screws and they even got their own aprons! Sara and Emily cannot wait to paint their houses and get the houses ready for spring! We cannot wait to see what next month's project will be!

Sweet Valentines





The other day the girls were very busy with making valentines for Daddy and heart healthy valentine muffins. The valentines for Daddy were a big hit,but the end product of the healthy muffins...not so much. The girls enjoyed mixing all the ingredients for the muffins and loved watching the batter turn into real muffins, but I guess the idea of making them with whole wheat flour was not the best choice for the girls' taste buds! Happy Valentine's Day!

The Aquarium






Today the we all went to the Aquarium in Boston. The girls asked to take the train and did not want Mommy and Daddy to take the strollers. So we took the T and the girls enjoyed walking from the subway to the Aquarium. The girls really enjoyed walking around and were even able to touch some hermit crabs! It was a perfect day to go because the place was not too crowded and Sara and Emily were able to see so many neat creatures. They saw the lots of penguins, huge sea turtles, sharks and a variety of jelly fish. We had a great time and nap time later that day was great for all of us!
