Happy Birthday, Marme!

Marme's birthday is tomorrow. She is so special to us, and it's been so hard for us to see her so sick for so long. We're hoping that she is all better soon. Love you!

The girls both have ear infections so it's been a slow week. I hurt my neck too so we have been a mess. I think that we are all better now. The girls are eating breakfast, and I'm about to get everyone dressed. Last week we went to Music, had the girls' pics taken at JCP, went to our playgroup Easter party, and I went to dinner with Katie A. and baby Jonah (he is so adorable). Last weekend we went to the Arts Market then Peter and I went on a date on Saturday night. On Sunday we played in the backyard, because it was so nice. We went to see Uncle Tommy on Monday. They had colds for about a week, but they just weren't acting right so I brought them in. On Tuesday we went to Covington for an OE photo shoot. S still wasn't feeling well and she was not happy to change clothes and have her picture taken. B hammed it up. On Wednesday after school we picked Scarlet up from the airport then she treated us to a yummy lunch. She helped me do some errands with the girls. We are so happy to have her in town and we can't wait till she spends the night with us on Saturday!

B and I have been having issues with her eating--or refusal to eat. Yesterday I made her lunch, including some marinated chicken. She wanted "clean chicken"--which I guess meant without the marinade on it so I washed it off. Then I brought it back and she said "now it's meat. it's not chicken!!!" She refused to eat it then I made her some "different chicken" and she didn't eat a bite. I'm over it!

S is reaching for us when she wants to be picked up. She is also picking up the phone and saying "ullo." S is so close to walking. She'll jump from the sofa or chair to us. S loooooves Cheerios. If she's upset I'll grab the box or her snack trap and she'll instantly brighten up. S is perfecting her wave and her "bye bye." She is a clapping pro.

B is saying and doing the funniest things. The other day Bee made a deal with B and asked her to shake on it--so B shook her little booty and started dancing. I also have made the mistake of telling her to spit it out when she is taking a while to tell me something--she spit all over the place. Oops.

Pics later.
