Whoo Hoo!

Maggie has developed a strange habit. She is seeming to feel the need to "whoo hoo!" everywhere she goes. Sitting on the couch, "whoo hoo!" Brushing her teeth, "whoo hoo!" Riding her bike down the street, "whoo hoo!" Walking thru WalMart, "Whoo hoo!" It's a little strange and sorta embarrassing in public places. : ) But I guess if that's the worst of her bad habits, I can live with it.

Here are some pictures from the last week, just for fun.

The weather finally warmed up enough to make the snow, "snowman worthy". We made this tiny snowman one day, complete with rocks for eyes and buttons, a carrot nose, hat and scarf.

They were very proud. Someone said something about that "little" snowman in the front yard and Maggie responded with, "no, its a GIANT snowman". Maybe to Bella, but not really to anyone else.

Soon after Mr. Snowman was complete, the nose mysteriously disappeared from its face. Hmmm, wonder who the culprit could be.

Maggie likes to "do" my hair. It does look lovely don't you think? She's getting quite proficient with the clips.

One day (I can't remember which), the elementary school had a late start, so who did I end up with but Kyra and Raya (and Daniel, but he was supposed to be there). The came over for a couple of hours before the bus came and as you can see, we did a little arts and crafts. Kyra is a girl after my own heart and likes to be crafty. She knows right where I keep everything and helps herself. They had fun, and it kept them busy for at least an hour. Then we all bundled up and took an outing to the bus stop which Maggie and Maya thought was great fun. Maya loves to see the buses go by and Maggie just wants to go to school so she can ride the bus.

Maya loves to play with Maggie's things, so when Mags got the Tag Reader for Xmas, we all knew who would be playing with it...not Maggie.

Spring has sprung...well almost...but it did get warm enough to bust out the bikes! Even if we did still have to wear hats and mittens. Maya is now a big girl riding on her big girl bike with the training wheels. She's doing really well on it!

Yesterday night at dinner, we had steak, sweet potatos, vegies and rolls. Daddy thought it would be super funny to let a rather LARGE piece of roll hang out of his mouth and pretend like nothing was wrong. The girls thought this was really funny and were just pointing and pointing to his mouth, saying, "Daddy, look!" Finally he got the clue and discovered the disgusting nastiness hanging out of his mouth. : )

Tonight after dinner Maggie, as usual, requested a treat. They don't usually get anything, but tonight they got a little bit of ice cream. Yum, yum! Maggie insisted that we take a picture of this, so here it is!
