happy balloon
I took Ada to CVS the day after mother's day and was in the check-out line when she scrambled from my arms, grabbed three candy bars and took off down an aisle at the other end of the store. I guess the manager felt bad for me, so when I returned with Ada and she spotted this huge balloon, he handed it to me to keep. And not only was the balloon a balloon, one of Ada's most favorite things in the world (second only to balls), it also plays music when you bonk it. So for a week now, we have been listening to "you are my sunshine" ad nauseum to our little girls delight! Ada loves her "happy balloon" as she calls it.
pickin's are so good!
we have made three trips to the strawberry patch thus far and Josie has gotten to be quite good at picking the ripe strawberries (she picked her basket herself) and Ada continues to be quite successful at "picking" mouthfuls of berries from our baskets!

potato prints
Josie and I were crafty this week and made some potato printed mother's day cards this year for Josie's grandma and nana - we hope you liked them. Happy Mother's day!
Pick! Pick!
I took the girls strawberry picking this week with one of our neighbors and Ada learned a new word - "pick" (see definition in second picture below - "pick" i.e. to select a strawberry out of the box of mama's strawberries for eating!).
