1. The girls love watching Finding Nemo and Campbell and I love one particular moment. It's when Darla screams "Fish in my hair!" We both look at each other and giggle whenever we see it and it's something special that we share. Enjoy this clip:
2. Maggie made a family "portrait" at school. I found it really interesting that she apparently doesn't see skin color and I was proud of that. Campbell, however, was very unhappy with the length of her head's hair...
3. We celebrated Robbie's mom's birthday at one of our favorite Mexican restaurants this week. Rather than a birthday cake, we ordered 3 molten chocolate lava cakes to share. Let's just say Campbell finished all 3 with just a little help from the rest of us!
4. Maggie is such a goofball. Wonder where she got that from? She looks pretty good in Robbie's fencing helmet.
5. I admit that this school year I was worried about all of the changes for Campbell, including her having to go to afterschool care ("Challenger"). She proved to me those fears were silly when I asked her this week if she had a wonderful day and her response was "Yes". When I asked what was wonderful, she said "Challenger. I love it!" She loves playing on the playground after school with her friends. If I happen to arrive too early to pick her up (in her opinion), she lets me know! "Mommy, I didn't hear all the story" or "Mommy, but I didn't get to play very long." What a relief.
6. The girls and I went on a picnic today at Campbell's request. We took a blanket and lunch to Winthrop Lake and had the "best picnic ever" according to Campbell. I also took the camera with my new lens and took some pictures of the girls playing and feeding the ducks.
