April was a busy but good month. It started with a visit from Abby's favourite cousins. We found them all on there little perches with books.
Reading a story together
Anna Jane finally progressed to a forward facing seat, since Abby was getting to big for her seat we bought her a new one and moved AJ to Abby's old one. I think AJ was glad and it has made travelling much easier.
This was our new Easter clothes for Easter Sunday. It took a while to get any pictures that would work! Here are the cream of the crop.
Courtesy of my parents we had a family holiday at Findhorn. We stayed in one of the eco houses. It was very comfortable and spacious. While we were there it was Brennan's birthday. The family all came to the holiday house to celebrate. Kristen planned a wonderful fun filled day for the kids. First on the cards was an Easter egg hunt.
Not quite sure what she was to do.
She caught on quick.
After the egg hunt the kids had their first pinata experience. They loved it. Abby started laughing so hard she could not stand up! It took some hitting but we finally got the goodies.
After we went inside the kids got to get more treats from the egg hunt.
Later we had presents and cake time. We enjoyed great food all day and everyone had a great time.
We bought a pocket kite while we were there. It took us a while to get it airborne but we enjoyed it. Abby wasn't that impressed, how times have changed.
Needless to say we visited LOTS of parks during our holiday.
On the way home we stopped in Cullen for ice-cream.
The week before we left on holiday we started potty training Abby, She did amazing. We were and are so proud of her. Just after we got back she completed her potty chart. She was basically potty trained within 2 weeks. We still have the odd accident but it is usually when she is having fun and doesn't want to stop. We keep telling her that it will all be there when she gets back. She is even mostly dry at night, although we haven't been brave enough to use pants at night yet.
So AJ was taking a nap and Abby was playing around, I was looking out the back window surveying our estate (ie back garden) and when I turned round I thought were has Abby gone? I was sure she had not left the room as the door was closed.
Then I saw some movement.....
.....Finally found her hiding place.
I had matching hats made for us. Here are the girls modeling theirs. I know, I know adorable
Here are all of us with our hats
We planted bulbs last Autumn and here is Abby showing the daffodils that are about to open.
We went down for a weekend visit to Grannie and Grandad's before they left for the US. The girls LOVED Grannie's new gliding chair.
Here we are heading for a walk to the local park.
Well I hope you enjoyed more of the catchup.
