It's Spring Break for Lauren, and we've been busy bees! Wednesday, Lauren met Nana, Jennifer and cousins Sarah Beth, Casey and Michael in Texarkana for Jenn's birthday. We dined at the Olive Garden ("... it was lovely") and enjoyed bread sticks, pasta and peach-raspberry tea. The staff even sang a version of Happy Birthday to Jennifer - but no free dessert. The twins enjoyed their first Olive Garden breadsticks - they're probably too young, but they were SURE happy! The kids outnumbered the adults but we managed to enjoy a wonderful lunch with no tears! Afterwards, we hit Target and Old Navy to finish out the twins' summer wardrobe. Okay, to add to it...
Today, Kendal and Lauren took the twins to Hot Springs for an Easter photo shoot at Garvan Woodland Gardens. Carlisle was not in an overly smiley mood, but Jackson was pretty cheery. We hope the photographer got some good shots in their beautiful smocked Easter clothes. After the photos, we ate lunch at Chic-Fil-A, went in search for seersucker pants for Kendal and stocked up on Abita for Kendal's bourre card game tomorrow night.
The twins are really starting to play with each other... Well, if you call stealing zweiback crackers and juice from each other "playing" then we're getting along great! They are learning to "wrestle" and it's generally funny to watch. We're also working on using sippie cups - they love to drink juice (1/2 water, 1/2 apple juice) and are slowly figuring out how to serve themselves. Jackson stood on his own last night for about 3 seconds - Kendal was close behind as Jackson held onto the couch for dear life. Cruising is soon to come! Carlisle has mastered sliding on her belly and is a quick one while Jackson has the crawling down to a science.
