April Fools!

April Fool's Day was pretty spectacular! I didn't play any tricks but the day was a real treat. 

We hosted a play date in the morning. C's friend Mason came over. And M's future friend little girl no name was there too but she won't make her grand entrance until June. It was a very successful play date with little boy screams and running around. 

After lunch we baked cookies to decorate later. It made a complete mess but in the fun way I swear! 

Then we all headed outside because it was 79 and sunny. Yes. That's right. April Fools on us by Mother Nature. 

C got grimier than the day before and I seriously think I underestimated how many pairs of shorts to buy him since if this trend continue I'll have to wash them after each wear. 

We also took some time with our neighbor meeting his dog. Josie the doll has been around almost two years but she continues to be scared of C. She barks once and runs to the other side of the yard. C thinks she's pretty great because he just loves animals. It's really funny because Josie is a Bull Mastif so in other words HUGE. She weighs 130 lbs to C's 30. 

But we made progress in that regard so she doesn't bark at him anymore. 

This little girl has gone from rocking on her hands and knees on Monday to full faceplanting forward on Tuesday. Yesterday she started doing this thing where her legs push her forward and she shoots her arms out and around kind of like she's swimming butterfly. It propels her forwards anyway and she's happy. 

When dad joined us we got the grill out for the first time in 2015 and had a hot dog party! C even tried a hot dog so I was pretty impressed. 

Then we decorated our cookies. We made bunny butt cookies and bunny heads. (not pictured.) 

Writing it all out it doesn't sound like much but it was jam packed and actually really fun. A good start to April and a nice addition to Holy Week!
