A Picnic Sort of Day

We were able to go to the playground and have a picnic today, complete with freshly made M&M cookies that the girls made with me.  They had a blast and even talked to and played with a little girl who was there when we first got there.  Quite shocking, I know!

Pnut ate her food quickly to get her cookie.

Pilly dawdled and laid on the grass and ate her food much more slowly.  That's alright, it is a picnic!

LB tried to steal my food.  I think he was trying to create an allergy to peanut butter because he knows the girls eat it every day.

It is fun to come to this playground because they do more climbing and there is barely ever anyone else there.

They race all over the place and get pretty worn out, which is always good.

Isn't his hair so funny?  He is ready to race around, just needs to gain some stability!

So after our nice morning, the afternoon didn't go quite as well.  First of all, the girls didn't take a nap.  They know in doing so they don't get to watch Strawberry Shortcake the next day and have to go for nap a little earlier.  They need a nap!  They are so tired if they don't have one!  So anyways, they were playing in their room instead of sleeping when Pnut came downstairs and said, "Pilly swallowed a bead and it is horrible."  I raced up the stairs.  I was sure I would find her blue and not breathing.  I couldn't even find her!  I was yelling her name and looking all over the room.  She was hiding under her covers and cried when she came out.  I think I panicked her.  I was so relieved I just laughed.  I told her that we had been telling her not to put things in her mouth.  Then I called the doctor just to make sure that she shouldn't go in for x-rays, but they said no.  Just watch her to make sure she doesn't get a fever or constipated. 

I hope tomorrow is less eventful!
