Mark and I were both impressed with how neat her writing was especially for 1st grade. (Maybe she'll follow in her mother's footsteps for handwriting.)
She proudly held up her new card so I could take a picture and then it was off to the stacks to find some new fairy books!
She has been reading the series of fairy books non-stop! She claims there are 77 books total. After she reads a book she records it on her "Fairy Book list." As you can see, we've read 23 so far...only 54 more to go!
During the day they were treated to a viewing of Max and Ruby in their sleep attire. I think the kids would wear their pajamas everyday if allowed...but then again, who wouldn't?!
After the feeding, the baby's diaper became full and I had the honor of changing the baby's first "poopey" diaper. Much to Lauren's disappointment, the "poop" was a yellow liquid (the "food" was pears). Kate asked where the poop was since the yellow must be the "pee." I explained that the "pee" would be clear and that the yellow was supposed to be the "poop" from the pear food. Throughout the conversation, Lauren continued to ask how to make the doll "poop." Obviously they weren't prepared for the fact that a baby doll's bowel movements are a little different than their own.
The girls were so excited to see all of the snow out the windows and couldn't wait to get outside. Snow activities included snow angels, snow ball fights, being pulled in the sled, eating the snow, and simply lying in the "fluffy white stuff" that covered the ground. The girls even managed to help Dad clear off the car.
I must admit, I even got in on the fun and built a snowman!
