Weekend Randoms

After our Easter Egg Hunt last weekend, we took advantage of the nice weather and let the girls play outside for a while.

Steve got out Sam's jeep so that she could ride around in it, but it wasn't long before her little sister was begging for a ride:



Eventually, we gave in and let her have a little ride (with Momma close by, of course).

Sophia took some time to play with the flowers on one of my blooming bushes:



Even Samantha liked smelling some of the daffodils:

It has been a week since Easter, but I have decided to keep the plastic eggs out so that the girls can continue to play with them. There is something so fascinating about them, and both of the girls seem to enjoy taking them in and out of the egg cartons, especially Sophia.

I have been working with Samantha lately on coloring inside the lines. I have found that it is easier if we practice using these paintbrush markers. She really takes her job quite seriously, and I think that she is getting the hang of it.

We have started going for daily bike/stroller rides and the girls seem to enjoy it. It's good for all of us to get some fresh air.

Sophia is particularly fascinated with the streamers on Sam's bicycle:



Waiting patiently for our ride to begin:



Picking dandelions on our nature walk:



And sharing them with Sophia:

A few days ago, Steve surprised Sam and came home from work with a bat and ball set for her. She was SO thrilled!

Here she is posing in her new bathing suit (that she got that same day) with her new bat and ball:

And finally, yesterday, the girls had on matching outfits. I don't do that too often, but just enough to capture some fun pictures once in a while.

Sophia prefers to be casual during our photo shoots!
