Week: 4/24-4/30

4/24 - Our first Easter (see post below)

4/25 - Great Grandma Lydia was sweet enough to come spend the morning with the girls. Mardell went back to work part time so I gladly welcomed an extra pair of arms. She arrived just in time for the first feeding of the day and then spoiled Malia and McKenna with three hours of being held, I'm not sure who was happier.

4/26 - BATH NIGHT! Both girls enjoyed their bath and there was very little fussing. This was the one event I was putting off after returning from the hospital but it turns out that dogs are great practice and we pulled it off smoothly. Here are the girls all snuggled up after getting on their pj's and off in dreamland!

4/27 - Uncle Nick came by to visit. Malia and McKenna enjoyed the extra loving that they got while Mardell and Nick caught up! Later that afternoon Charli stopped by to visit. I had a great time hearing stories about my students.

4/28 - LAZY DAY. We didn't have any visitors and just hung out around the house all day. Mardell did get in some good bonding time with the girls and introduced them to their first NFL draft!

4/29 - Thank goodness we got a little off of our schedule and were able to watch the Royal Wedding! This was the first time I was excited to get up at 4 a.m.!

The girls FINALLY were able to meet Aunt Sissy. She was in Manhattan and decided to stop by. McKenna and Malia were sleeping but we needed to document the moment on camera so I made her hold them (yep, they slept through it)!
Graham and Stuck came after school to drop off a delicious meal and were able to feed the girls! I was very surprised that Jenn was able to wait as long as she did before coming to see the little ladies. Malia and McKenna were able to spend some quality time with some of their favorite teachers at Westwood!

4/30 - We spent a peaceful day at home just the 6 of us (if you're confused by the extra two than you forgot our dogs!).
