Happy Mother's Day to all of my mother readers out there. You are a strong and beautiful bunch of women! I had a very nice mother's day. Chris and the girls presented me with lovely cards, and a beautiful necklace. Olivia and Chris went shopping together. Chris had told me beforehand that the gift I was going to get wasn't what he had in mind, but that Olivia insisted that I would like it better than what he had in mind. After opening it, and hearing what he had in mind - I gave her a high five. Not that silky pajama pants wouldn't have been lovely - but I really love my necklace - they did good :) Olivia made me a very neat book at school, and Elliott painted a wooden hand cut-out for me.

We also got to spend time with Perry and Floris this weekend. Perry came down to spend some time with his mother in honor of mother's day. Elliott was most amused by the knowledge that Great Grandma Floris is Papa Perry's mother. She made sure to work that into the conversation often. "The other day we went to see your mother..." It was pretty cute! The girls both really enjoy spending time with their papa and great grandma, and the weather couldn't have been nicer.

Olivia has been having a good time practicing her batting skills. We probably spent over an hour working with her both yesterday and today. She even pitched a few for me this afternoon. Only beaned me on the nose once, so not too bad!

The girls had a great time "fishing" out of the back of Chris's truck. They don't need fancy playground equipment... The bed of a truck and a few bungee cords and they're set!!

You can see which girl was more cooperative when it came time to put the nightgown on tonight- Sugey sure does look good in yellow, and 4T must be equivalent to extra-large in dog sizes!!!
