05.15.12 (Tuesday am) - I realized I have no good recent pictures of P. So I decided to correct that this morning. I think I succeeded. P goes through shoes like crazy, it's the toes. She ruins the toes.





05.14.12 (Monday) - F's schoolwork. I think the boy in the playdate picture is her best friend, N.

05.14.12 (Monday) - Flowers everywhere. And Batman.







05.13.12 (Sunday afternoon) - Mt. Vernon. It was going so well until T threw up all by the docks. After that the day went downhill.





05.13.12 (Sunday am) - Mother's Day. I really made out well. F even made me cards in spanish and english.

05.11.12 (Friday morning) - P's end of the year preschool recital and parents' party.



05.11.12 (Friday before school) - F decided to write a note to her teachers.



05.08.12 (Tuesday am) - Maggie's peonies.

05.07.12 (Monday) - On top, P's artwork from school and a playdate. Bottom pic is F's (she made it at Grandma Margie's house).





05.07.12 (Monday) - I almost never purchase school pictures (because we already have SO MANY pics of the kids), but these won me over with their cheesiness. Plus I love the shot of pensive T, especially with his messed up hair.







05.06.12 (Sunday) - United States Botanical Gardens with Aunt Jenny and Hannah. I always forget how beautiful this place is, we need to visit more often.

05.05.12 (Saturday afternoon) - Neighborhood walk. The goal was to walk the baby to sleep, but the kids couldn't stop waking her up. I forced T to wear pants, but a shirt seemed like too much of a fight.





05.05.12 (Saturday am) - (1) Hannah Banana in town. The girls are in LOVE!!
(2) Rain on and off throughout the morning, so the kids built a fort.









05.04.12 (Friday) - The National Arboretum's Koi Ponds and Herb Garden with T. We used all our quarters to buy fish food.





05.04.12 (Friday morning) - Before school, P decided to make the "circle of life" with her dolls. She placed horses in the center.




05.03.12 (Thursday afternoon) - Took the girls out of school and spent the day at the National Aquarium. We needed some "us" time.

05.02.12 (Wednesday am) - P's feeling better and dancing around the block.





05.01.12 (Tuesday am) - Summer is closing in on us.







04.30.12 (Monday am) - Brisk.




04.29.12 (Sunday) - After the party.







04.28.12 (Saturday afternoon) - Alison's bridal shower. Presents and sangria. Not a bad way to spend an afternoon.

04.28.12 (Saturday) - Super F. I love it.





04.27.12 (Friday) - A lorax mustache + a giraffe puppet (that doesn't really look like a giraffe) = a good week at school.





04.24.12 (Tuesday am) - F's kindergarten class built a robot from trash and recyclables. I was pretty impressed.
