We had a great Easter. The kids are growing like weeds...and are really starting to play well together. Here are some photos from our last few weeks.
The kitchen set continues to be a hit. Henri loves to pull it out from the wall...and play behind the set. Lili has just discovered that she, too, can stand in the back of the set and peak out at me through the window. Because it sits at the edge of our cabinets...she can also hide there...and as Henri races around the corner, she can pop her head out. Hours of laughter....
Here we are on Easter Sunday.
Ah...the Easter Bunny...they brought all sorts of good things: new books, new clothes, new chairs for our table...and we were able to use our Ethiopian Easter baskets. Very fun!
Here's Lili. We were walking out to the car for church. I grabbed my little purse...and Lili (in her fancy dress) decided she needed to have her purse, too. To carry an empty plastic egg. :) She was so proud...she walked out to show her daddy what a big girl she is.
We spent Easter Sunday afternoon at the park. Here's Henri....he loves being outside...
On Saturday, before Easter, it was so hot...we busted out the kiddie pool. Obviously a little cold for Lili's liking. She wanted to be in the pool...but didn't want to get wet. Solution: move the chair into the pool, and sit on the chair. Of course...one chair moves to two chairs...voila...relaxing pool-side.
Henri's fire-truck needed a bath...
We drove out to DeLand with a bunch of friends and enjoyed pancakes at the Sugar Mill and took the boat eco-tour. Here is Lili in the car...she's such a cutie. And...she wore those sunglasses for two hours!
Mommy and Lili...
Mommy and Henri...he's such a talker...I love to watch him make his new sounds, and really say words. It's great!
A little out of order...more pool-time...
The filling of the pool might have been more fun than the actual pool, itself.
Henri playing on the slide at the park in DeLand. He loved it...and surprisingly...the pancake cooking wasn't a total gong-show. I was certain someone would burn their fingers...but luckily...no tragedy.
Our little dare-devil on the slide. Scared of the dark...but not scared of the big-kids playground.
Little Lili...so sweet.
Henri is a total Daddy's Boy these days. Here he is, wearing his dad's sunglasses.
Lili and Baby S....who has been supplying Lili with hand-me-downs. Looks like that supply-chain is about to dry up...and we might be sending S Lili's hand-me-downs! :)
The fresh water springs...Henri had to dip his feet and splash...disgusting...but he also had to have a taste...via his toe. Yikes!
Driving to the springs...
Lili and her glasses. Such a riot!
We will try to post more soon...
