Play date with Olivia

Just a few random things that I haven't had a chance to write on yet...

This semester, school is gonna kick my rear.  It's already really challenging, and it's only the 2nd week of class.  I have my first quiz next week, and lots of papers to write.  Plus, I am taking an additional class so I am in 9 credits, plus have a full-time job, a couple of pretty needy little kiddos, and a husband to care for.  One day at a time, right?!

Please forgive me if I slack off a bit on my blog...

it's not because I don't want to...

Maggie will, every once in a while, suck her thumb or a couple of fingers.  She never did take a pacifier, she would always gag and choke on it if we gave her one.
Brian found her sucking her thumb during a nap one time, and snapped a quick picture.
What a doll!

Colin still loves this silly race car track.  

Now he has added his own accessories...such as his legs!  The cars are powerful enough they can climb Mt. Colin with no problem.  

 A few weeks ago, Colin started asking for Olivia to come over to his house to play.  We had to arrange schedules, but last weekend, it happened!  He, and Olivia, were so excited to hang out at our house.  We played in the tunnel...

Got our hands dirty in some playdoh...

Had a "pretend" birthday party for Maggie, complete with all the fixin's you would ever want at your party, just in make-believe world...

and read some books and did some puzzles.

The two of them played really well together, once the initial shock was over that Colin would have to share his toys with Olivia.  I am so excited to know these two will grow up to be great friends.

Now, as for this weekend, we have another very exciting thing planned...

SESAME STREET LIVE! on Sunday!

I will be sure to take lots of pictures...Can't wait!!
