Raliegh goes to Peter Pan
Auntie Pauline got us tickets to Peter Pan last weekend. I was so excited to take Raleigh as it was her first play, let alone movie!! She's never been to either. When we were walking down the isle I couldn't help but wonder if she would remember this day. I'll never forget when I went to my first play, Annie in Kansas City, MO. Maybe she will just remember the dressing up part and the date that she and I went on. She definitely liked 'Tinker Bell' who was portrayed by a little lazer jumping around in the theater. But, she only made it through the first half and then she said, "Let's go Mom." I tried to talk her into staying and she said, "No, we go now."

Happy Mother's day!
Is it bad that my favorite Mother's Day thus far has been one without my kids??
Ya, please don't comment on that one if the answer is Yes.
Mark and I went to Coeur D' Alene to visit the Heffters and the Phillips. We spent a very romantic night in an old bed and breakfast, had a fun time with Emily's whole family, and had an amazingly beautiful drive. The girls were in GREAT hands as Suzi spent the night with them. This weekend cast a lot of hope for me as the all-consuming baby days might be rounding out and we transition into a new era.
Speaking of new eras. It seems that OVERNIGHT Raleigh has developed a fixation for all things princess. She loves princess dresses, to be called Princess Raleigh, and Castles (like the one we now have in our backyard. See below). Raleigh lives in her Cinderella dress. And Auntie Pauline bought Raleigh Peter Pan theater tickets for her birthday. On Saturday Raleigh and I get to go to the Missoula Children's Theater for the play. She is REALLY excited.
Gracyn has been crying and fussy for about a month now. Last night was the first night we got her to go down without a screaming crying fit until 11-12am. I don't know exactly what her deal is but I know she is a good baby with a good temperament so I think something is bothering her... When she's in a good mood, however, her personality just blossoms. She will let Raleigh do anything to her!!
We inherited a jungle-gym this week and the girls are thrilled about it. Raleigh has been out in her "castle" everyday. Here are some pics and a video that cracked me up.
