The girls celebrated their birthdays over the weekend...with Jubilee Girl turning seven and Mouse turning ten. Since their birthdays are so close together, we usually combine the celebration, with separate cakes.

Jubilee Girl is smiling because this birthday cake was preceeded with "ral" pizza from Godfather's. ("Real" in her opinion...!) |
|
Mouse received a new scooter from her grandparents, while Jubilee Girl got a new (much-needed) bike from mom and dad. We got each girl a bell for their handlebars,
so now they can go up and down the sidewalk together ringing their bells. They are
also showing off new purses they received from their grandparents; they have been taking those things everywhere!

Mouse had wanted a dollhouse she could paint and decorate. This corrugated cardboard one was perfect...she has spent hours constructing the little cardboard furniture, as well as making her own accessories (tissue-paper bedspreads and pillows, a toybox made from a matchbox). She spent a few more hours this afternoon painting the various rooms with a friend. |

On the afternoon of her birthday, Mouse wanted to paint a mural on a wall. We set her up with paint in the garage. She painted the whole wall under the stairs white as a preparatory step to painting the mural. |
