Hasn't Lost His Touch

Thanks to Jill, we love making pizza with the Central Market Pizza Crust.  Tim used to work in a pizza parlor as a teenager and knows how to throw pizza.  This past weekend he threw pizza dough for the girls to watch.

Our Little Star

This week is the Week of the Young Child.  Once again I had to make a star about Natalie.  I decided to use this picture of her in an outfit she and Riley created together.  She thought she looked marvelous.  

The Wedding of Q and U

You know Q and U.  They are always together making the sound "qu".  Riley's Kindergarten class helped the students always remember this simple grammarical rule by having the wedding of Q and U.  

Riley was chosen to be her classes bride.  Her teacher Mrs. B supplied the gown with Qs and Us embroidered all over.  She said Riley got this look in her eye when she saw the dress.  Ladies, you know the look, the one where NO ONE will come between you and the dress.  So her teacher put her in the role she craved....

Please note the Qs and Us in the bouquet.

We got up extra early to do her hair...

When I picked her up she said that it was the most tiring day of her life.  Everyone wanted to take her picture and it was so tiring, the girls fought over who got to stand next to her and hold her train and the woes went on and on...  Maybe we won't have to pay for a big wedding?

Hopping Down the Bunny Trail

Tim:  Natalie go clean up those crayons.  How many times do I have to tell you?

Tim starts to dial on the phone...

Natalie:  Daddy who are you calling?  Is it the Easter Bunny?

Riley's Report Card

Riley got all "E's" on her report card today.

Trapped!

Today Natalie managed to get herself locked in the bathroom at my school.  She flipped the "occupied" dead bolt on the door and couldn't figure out how to open it.... needless to say there is not an override key either.   So, 15 minutes later after talking her down from her hysteria and crying I was able to get her to open the door.  I went home and made a "momma drink." (Malibu rum and CranRasberry).

Worn Out

I think we have been going too much... this morning Natalie fell asleep on the way to school and Riley fell asleep on the "noisy" bus this afternoon.  Needless to say, I put both girls to bed early tonight with plans to continue early bedtimes the rest of the week.

The girls' social calendar is keeping us busy as well.  We have 2 birthday parties this weekend too!
