update

The kids are growing like weeds.
Grace is a big ball of energy in a tiny little body.
Nolan is so much fun now and he's a great helper.

We went to an easter egg hunt at First Atlanta over the weekend. They had a petting zoo and pony rides. Grace and Nolan loved the petting zoo! Grace wasn't so sure about the pony ride while she was sitting on the pony waiting for it to start walking. As soon as the pony started to move, she started to laugh. Nolan has always loved pony rides. He also started laughing as soon as the pony started to move.

here are pics of the the kids at a local park, the easter egg hunt, and easter (and pics of the easter egg hunt at my mom's on easter):












(I made Grace's dress and hair bow. I know the pic is sideways - just turn your head like last time and it's straight. You know if it took me this long just to upload with sideways pics, it will take about forever to updated with non-sideways pics)

and an video of Nolan saying his ABCs (he can do better, but that's all he wanted to do for the camera)

I started making hair bows for Grace. I like making them so much, that I opened a store on etsy. There's a link to my store (MollyAnne Designs) in the right column of the blog. There's also a link to BooZeeba, the company with Mary Ann, Ellen, and me. BooZeeba specializes in dolls and travel tracks.

cuteness

Some times I feel sorry for all the other kids in the world. No matter how hard they try, they can't be as cute as this.



Grace's hair is finally long enough to put in pigtails. Her hair sticks straight up whenever I pull it up.
I asked her to smile so I could get a picture of her with her pigtails sticking straight up. This is what she kept doing.

School

The kids are in school now 3 days a week.
Cary got a job selling roofs (need a roof? call him!), so we put the kids in day care for him for go sell, sell, sell! His mom still watches them 2 days a week.

The first few weeks are school were a little rough. Now, the kids are adjusted and Nolan LOVES school.
The day care they are in lets Nolan be in the 3-year-old class even though he isn't potty trained (any ideas on how to get him potty trained would be GREAT!). Most of the day cares we looked at would keep Nolan in with the 2 year olds until he is potty trained.

Their first day of school happened to be picture day. Thought ya'll like to see the pictures.










Oh - and it looks like Grace will be getting her 2 front teeth for Christmas. She's cutting (at least) 2 teeth right now. In a few days, she will have 8 teeth - including both of her front teeth!
