Week before last, we all were sick. By that Friday we felt better but had been home most of the week, so when our friend told us about an Easter "eggstravaganza" at Barnes and Noble, we jumped on a chance to get out and have some fun. The girls had fun hearing a story, watching a movie in a portable tentlike planetarium, and picking out custom-made spring cupcakes, but the biggest impression that evening was made by the guests of honor: the Easter bunny and Clifford, the big red dog. After standing in line for a while, we got to go up with our friends to meet Clifford. AG and SJ were OK with this, but as you can see our little friend in the red pants was less than thrilled to be so close to Clifford, even though she was previously a fan! At the last second, LL also got scared and wouldn't even get close enough to be in the photo. So all in all it was a fun event, but I think we have a little more prep to do before making smooth and happy introductions to the Disney characters later this month!
Then last Saturday I took LL to a birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese's...her first time to go there. It was such fun to watch her run around, totally loving all the rides, games, and dancing in front of the camera on the big screens. She had a great time, and I am sure it won't be long until we all go back. She cracked me up on these rides because she hugged Bob the builder and "Chucky and Cheese" the whole time!
