And now it's Spring?

From freezing cold snow to a heat wave.....well, not exactly a heat wave, but when it's been crazy cold and then you have almost 80 degree heat it feels like you're melting. Looks like two more days of warm weather and then back to 30's and 40's. Bummer.

These pictures are from the Purim Festival at the local JCC. We joined Susan and Sophie and Christy and Rosie this past Sunday. It was a terrific festival for kids and Jillian had a ball. Susan, Christy and I didn't get to visit too much as we were constantly in motion following the girls from one booth to another.

One of Jillian's new spring dresses. She is almost refusing to wear anything but skirts and dresses and so I've been stocking up on cute cheap dresses that can handle the rough and tumble parts of her personality.


Jillian's first face painting.


And also her first snowcone. Despite the look on her face she liked both.


And she's such a little conniver. This poor fella, Elliot, had to slide down with her about three times because she kept saying she couldn't go by herself. He would help her up the middle and then have to slide down with her because she wouldn't let go of his hand. Little did he know that she totally loves these inflatable slides and can go down with no help at all. Eventually she did go down by herself, but not before saying "I like him mommy." I could have sworn she was getting ready to ask if we could take him home.


Here she is learning how to milk a cow. I'm pretty sure she now thinks that when you milk a cow you get a tootsie roll. She kept going back over and over and over....and got a tootsie roll everytime.
