Annah's Birthday Party

This afternoon Annah celebrated her 3rd birthday with Morgan, Claire, and Maya. She was really happy with her Toy Story 3 cake and her three candles. She got lots of nice presents had a lot of fun.

First Bike Ride of the Year

The Pudy and I headed out on our first bike ride of the year and checked out the flood waters on the Mississippi. Makes us happy we live in Highland Park and not Lowland Park.

Animals at the Library

This morning we headed downtown to see animals from the MN Zoo at the library. Annah got to see a lizard, desert fox, spider, hawk and a big snake. She wasn't afraid of any of them - well, maybe a little bit afraid of the snake.

At McDonald's

This afternoon I had to run to Eagan to pick up some book mailers, so I took the girls along and on the way back we stopped at McDonald's so Annah could play on the indoor playground. Oh she had lots of fun! Maya was really nice and helpful by guiding Annah around and showing her how to get down the slide... What a good sister.

Waiting for her sister

Since she took her nap earlier in the day The Pudy got to go to the bus stop in the afternoon to meet her sister.

and another....

Now she needs to do something with that hair.

Another Potty Dress

Here Annah is modeling the latest in her line of "going on the potty reward dresses" - every time she goes on the potty she gets a prize and lately she has been getting clothes. The fact of the matter is we need to buy her summer clothes any way so we're buying them now because it's a good incentive to get her to go on the potty... but she doesn't need to know that.

Edina Library

Saturday Zaheeda had to get her ID renewed at the DMV so I took the girls next door to the Edina Public Library to kill some time - the Department of Motor Vehicles can make the library seem like Disney Land.
