Pluto!

Sadie did a wonderful job in her class play about the Solar System. She was Pluto and she was terrific!

More pictures and video to follow.

Bacon

I had cooked some bacon to make a quiche and Helena saw it and wanted some.

We bribed Sadie to try the bacon. She admitted it was "ok" but still strongly prefers sausage.

Sweet Fun

On Sunday, we took a little daytrip to North Woodstock, NH to visit Fadden's Sugarhouse. The girls had a fun time seeing the sap coming out of a tree, watching the syrup boil, and going on a horse and wagon ride.



The best part was that this sugarhouse gives out sugar on snow instead of offering little cups of syrup like our local sugarhouse does. Sugar on snow is heated maple syrup that cools to a thick caramel when it's poured over snow (or shaved ice). Then, the caramel is twisted onto a popsicle stick. Delicious!

Bedroom Changes

Within the last few months, Helena has moved into the toddler bed that was Sadie's and Sadie decided she was ready for a "real" bed, instead of her mattress and box spring on the floor.

So, Nana and Bob Bob brought us the bed that Dan slept in when he was a boy and set it up for Sadie. She loves it, especially the headboard with built in shelves. Since this picture was taken Sadie also got new bedding, featuring her new favorite color, "teal turquoise blue".

Sadie has been reading Helena a bedtime story almost every night, which they both really enjoy.

Happy St. Patrick's Day

DisneyWorld

We had a great vacation in DisneyWorld with Grandma, Grandpa, Jenny and Andy! The girls had a terrific time. One of the highlights was the princess breakfast, where we got to meet Cinderella, among others.

Thank you Grandpa and Grandma for the wonderful time! (More pics on Flickr)

See you soon!

We're going to Florida to see Tinkerbell!
