A Long Walk

Steve had today off, so we took our girls on a long walk in their double stroller to enjoy the ridiculously warm (76 degrees) weather. They lasted about 5 blocks before they were both sleeping. I'd say that makes the new stroller a keeper. We also spent a lot of time outside enjoying the weather and making dirt "princess" castles with Abby.

Besides our outdoor fun, Abby and I met her friends for brunch at Burger King. She had lots of fun seeing her friends and enjoying some time out of the house. I also enjoyed visiting my friends, who just happen to be the moms of Abby's best friends - it's great when that sort of thing works out.

It's Good to be Queen

Abby finished up her 5th month birthday by visiting her favorite Sault Ste. Marie restaurant ~ the Burger King two blocks from our house. It's her favorite place to go for dinner because there are lots of windows and two t.v.'s on her 3rd favorite channel (the Fox News Network).

And, Abby's head is finally big enough for her to wear the Burger King crown, so in honor of her 5th month party Abby got to be queen for the night.

Today Abby and I have to head down to the library to return some books, check out some new ones and renew the Lord of the Rings since we are not quite done learning about hobbits. We also have to pack our bags since we did all the laundry yesterday. I think we will have enough to keep us busy!

We did quite a bit of cleaning last night so that we didn't feel quite so cluttered. Abby can now play all over the floor again and was back to practicing her crawling after dinner. She can still only get one end up into the air at a time.
