James has learned how to go up the stairs without crawling and we thought it would be a good time to learn how to get back down. Unfortunately, Ashlyn went into big sister mode and went down the stairs backward to be funny. This of course is now the only way that James wants to go down the stairs.
We made a lot of progress this weekend on Ashlyn’s new room, in large part to James’ interest and affinity with the various tools littered throughout the room. Whether it was the rubber mallet (we learned the hard way that it is NOT ok to let him have an actual hammer) or the screw driver, things were built and put in place.
James even helped Ashlyn start moving some of her clothes into the new room. It’s a good thing James is good with tools, because he is not a very good help with clothes.
We had so many Easter egg hunts with the kids this weekend that it would be impossible to put a story around each one. Instead of typing, I’ll let the pictures tell the story. Also, the kids are so hyped up on sugar that by the time we got them to bed I ran out of blog time. Enjoy!
