Oh, Jane Ellie...

So let me set the stage for you. My sister and her girls came and spent the day with us. (which just happened to be the most beautiful day we've had in weeks) Then we we spent the evening at my parent's house eating and letting all the cousins play together (as well as 4 kids age 1-3 years can play together lol) We got back to the house around 915 and I quickly nursed AC and put her to bed. Ahhh, now to get JE to bed. She was snuggled up to Robert watching Duck Dynasty with a little Caillou mixed in. Robert had to run down to the shop, so I put JE in the bed with my nook so she could watch a few stories. About 15 minutes went by and since I never heard anything I assumed she was asleep. Maggie was asleep on the couch, but quickly lifted her head when we heard something in the kitchen. I thought it was just a cat (or mouse). A second later I see a little curly-brown haired 2 yo crawling from the kitchen to underneath the dining room table! Maggie was very unsure of what was going on, she was sitting up on the couch- hair raised with a low growl. "Jane Ellis, what are you doing? (laughing)" she doesn't say anything. She gets right in front of me and I ask her what she has in her mouth. She just smiles, when she opens her hand I can see she had gotten into some candy that was on the tall dresser in our room. When I went back there to see how she had gotten them, I discovered that, although all the lights were off except for the hallway light, she had gotten her stool out of the bathroom, climbed up and took the candy. This is really the first time she's done anything sneaky like this! And I love it!! I love seeing her sweet little personality grow and mature. I can't wait to see what other funny things she does

After cleaning out her closet and drawers, she finds her bathing suit, and pretends she's swimming lol

Easter 2013

Since I'm still working sat/sun nights I had to work Easter night. I decided to go straight to bed so I could get up at 12 and get ready. It has been so rainy that we knew the egg hunt would be inside; that also meant Robert hasn't been working so he was able to watch the girls while I slept. We had our annual Easter at my Pepaw's house. So much fun!! The girls wore their adorable matching dress which I of course made myself.

Waiting in the hallway for all the parents to hide the eggs.

This was about the best we could do. Next time pictures will be taken before everyone gets so tired!
