But I digress, Spring Break has been a fun and busy one for us all. Good Friday the girls and I went to the mall to see the Easter Bunny and take some photos at Sears. Saturday was our neighborhood Egg Hunt (pics on James' FB wall) and of course Easter was Sunday. Both girls were very happy with their gifts... Randi got Battle Ship & some art supplies and Annabella got a couple vtech toys. The "Easter Bunny" found some pretty awesome deals at Toys R Us and saved 60% on presents!!!
Monday was a lazy day spent reading, drawing, and watching WAY too much TV.
Tuesday we went to see "The Reluctant Dragon" at the library it was very cool and both girls were entertained. It was put on by Atlantic Coast Theatre They did a FANTASTIC job making it entertaining for kids and adults which is sometimes difficult. After the play it was time for half price arcade games at The Alley, somehow we managed to be there for almost 2 hours. (Randi refused to take any pictures this day)
Wednesday was our first trip to Color Me Mine in Hyde Park Village Randi had a great time and it's something we will definitely do again. Then it was off to City Street Sweets just 3 shops down to sample some great treats. We were both a little overwhelmed by the choices... Randi settled on some cookies and cream ice cream while I enjoyed a very small piece of Dark Chocolate Midnight Espresso City Bark (it was so rich I couldn't even finish the small piece I bought!).
Thursday has been another laid back day...while Annabella is a great baby and very content in most situations, I'm trying to balance being out and about with Randi and providing opportunity for Annabella to be home and on schedule (and out of the sun). So far it's worked pretty well :) While Annabella was napping Randi and I made and decorated some sugar cookies. Although I find baking and cooking tedious (I think at some point in the very distant past I used to like cooking...) the hugs, smiles and I love you's from Randi made it worthwhile. My plan was to make the cookies before Easter, but a few days later isn't bad either.
Most of the cookies will make their way to James' office!

Spring break is coming to a close, but we still have a lunch at daddy's office and zoo trip planned!
