"Look who's makin' pancakes!"
Lyric and Megan were in charge of breakfast Saturday morning!
... An afternoon of playing games
...Zoe was on my team
...then we watched some movies!
It rained all weekend... so we went to the mall for some Cold Stone ice cream. We all loved it! Cake Batter was the BEST!
...then we went shopping for girly clothes.
... unsuccessful at finding the girls Easter dresses... but still lots of fun!
"Thanks for letting us come Uncle Doug and Aunt Kristin!""SURPRISE... look who came to town!"
Sunday morning... Megan and I decided to surprise the whitlocks with a visit. We woke them up bright and early... and invited ourselves over for a quick morning visit. It was nice seeing Jimmy and Katie... and of course... Megan loved playing with her long lost buddy... Isaac.
... she showed him how to use his toys! 
... then we all got hungry and went out for some Arby's! Boy was that a good idea! I haven't had an Arby's sandwich in forever! ... Then we had to say our goodbyes!
... Jimmy showed the kids how to play with the flower petals in the parking lot. They were piled up like feathers... I'm pretty sure Megan thought they were bubbles!
... Hugs goodbye! "Hope to see you soon!"Back to Doug and Kristin's!
... Uncle Doug put her up on the banister... and left her there!
Glad she was still...
... he came back and got her down! She had a blast going up and down the stairs. They have a 3 story house... and 4 different sets of stairs. I was a nervous wreck with no baby proofing gates... but she only fell down them once. (Major wipe out!)
Gammie loved seeing her girls! They are getting SO BIG! They had big bowls of ice cream... then gave hugs goodnight... and goodbye!
Monday afternoon... only minutes after making it back to town... we Kevin and I took Megan to her first swimming lesson.
She waited at the gate patiently... and unaware of her turn!
...heading in for her lesson!
"You're gonna do what with me?"
...she pretty much screamed the whole time... but did great! They spent a solid 5 minutes getting her to learn to grab up for air. Then... it was time for some floating on her back.
She was scared to death... but did better than I expected for a first try. She floated several times unassisted by the end of the lesson.
She was pretty proud of herself when we got out and headed to the car. She was ready to do it again. (I think she was just happy to be out of the water.) When she was in the pool... she kept saying... "Mommy... Daddy... NO POOL... ALL DONE POOL... NIGHT NIGHT!" in between each dunking... but in a few weeks we hope she will be able to Love the pool and swim safetly... It will be worth it! I guess this is what they call tough love. She is a little trooper!
