Easter Babies!

Coloring Eggs
       

The Easter babies belong to Frank & Geri.  They had 4 baby goats and 3 lambs which we visited on Easter Morning.

Lyla was just as good at picking real eggs as hunting for Easter Eggs.  Mino & Lyla were super egg hunters.  Maya was satisfied after she found a few.  

Last week we jokingly mentioned to Maya to keep Sister's name a secret... not thinking that she actually would.  She knows it and goes around talking about her by name all the time.  Somehow our message stuck with her and she did not reveal it to anyone at Easter.  But she did enjoy the attention of being sly!  Now don't go calling her up this week trying to pry it out of her.... just be patient!  

I am predicting baby comes Thursday!
(Update, Friday 4-9-10:  No Baby yesterday.  That'll teach me to make a prediction.... which you know I HATE to hear from other people!)  
Now its back to being patient.

The Conductor

Lots of kids play with sticks.  Lots of kids (Thomas & Dinosaur Train fans in particular) will play "conductor".  We've been playing outside in the nice weather and when Maya plays with sticks, she plays "CONDUCTOR".  I'm not talking about the "All Aboard" type.... this is more of "a one and a two and a ........"

We were also playing restaurant today.  Where does Maya "drive" us to???

The Shawarma King (local Lebanese favorite).... and pretends to dip her pitas in hommus. 

What a character!

1 month to go

We're on the 1 month countdown to baby sister now. Maya's attitude has brightened significantly in the last few days. (She did have a cold for about 2 weeks which was exacerbating the whininess). Now she is playing much more pleasantly with Papa, and not grating Mama's nerves as much.......dare I speak too soon!


This baby is measuring small....... just like Maya did........ so I am not getting my hopes up that it will actually BE smaller. It moves A LOT.


I've noticed some people have found us on FaceBook. I am trying to avoid becoming involved with it since we already have this blog - it is really just a front for me to sign up for promotional stuff. I'll stick to e-mail and Blogger to communicate with people I actually know.
