Ciara with her granny
We love playing with these beads and laces right now. The girls get more jewellery to wear (what can I say, an ongoing fascination) and they get to work on their fine coordination making them at the same time.

obligatory spring zoo visit
We made use of the wonderful weather today and finally got to the zoo. Spring is not complete without a visit to the zoo! The first request was to visit the elephants (which are on the opposite side of the zoo to the entrance!)
adopting the animal (elephant) spotting pose
Enya, elephant spotting at the outside enclosure
Playing RIGHT NEXT to the bad tempered rhino
Hitting the various zoo playgrounds
what can I say, slides are popular right now and jungle gyms even more so...you just won't see any photos of the terrible two on jungle gyms as I'm hopping around trying to keep them from breaking their darling little necks!

Happy Easter
Easter morning at the breakfast table
Yes Enya is still getting a bottle-otherwise we'd be lucky if she drank 100ml in a day.
The great easter bunny hunt
Hope you all have (had) a wonderful Easter, we certainly made the most of ours. We had a lovely morning, first a easter bunny hunt and then playing outside enjoying the fresh air. This afternoon we spent playing inside as it was pouring with rain. Great fun was had by all, making bead necklaces and playing with lego and cars. Ciara and Enya are loving having their granny here!
This evening I finally finished lining the curtains for Ciara and Enya's room. They've started waking up when the first hint of dawn strikes their room, so I'm hoping by blocking all light I won't land up getting up earlier and earlier as we approach the summer solstice!
Now I've just got to finish their summer dresses and make some new bibs and start the last duvet cover and .......... the list goes on and on!

Watcha think?
They've been early for everything else, is it too soon for them to start driving?
Enya
Ciara
(before anyone starts to panic: the keys were not in the ignition, the handbrake was on and the car was in gear. My mother and I were also standing next to the car- they weren't going anywhere!!)

Afternoon fun
Having survived the longest walk ever this morning, the weather was still nice so after Ciara and Enya (and mommy's) nap we enjoyed a romp in the garden.
You gotta love a little bit of good clean dirt (sawdust in this case) as my mother said!

Good Friday fun
We took advantage of the unexpectedly pleasant day and got outside to air our cobwebby brains. The girls are decidedly uncooperative when it comes to going for a walk. It took us 2 hours to walk what used to take me 10 minutes when I was on my way to work.
On the positive side though we got to.....
Gawk at the chickens
inspect the ground for creepy crawlies
play in the dirt
learn how to hide our tracks
discover a new lake in the neighbourhood
