Big weekend

We had quite a fun weekend.
Friday, Mom picked us up and we went home. She told us our uncle Jason came and put a big hole in our kitchen. When we got home, we noticed the window was gone and SO WAS OUR KITCHEN TABLE! That was the first thing we said: "Mom! Our table is gone!"
She showed us that she put it in the living room, so we were cool, then we helped Mom order pizza just in time for Grandma, Grandpa, Dani, Ben & Lauren to show up...Daddy & Uncle Jason brought the pizza home and we had a big picnic in our living room.
Daddy put plastic up in the doorway - he said it was to keep the dust in the kitchen, but we thought it was to keep the COLD AIR in the kitchen since there was no window. AND we had so much fun running from one room to the other and going through the plastic door. Ben & Noah did it so much that Grandma & Mom put up plastic on a different door for them to play with.
Hannah & Lauren had a fabulous time playing together - they played dress up, house and dolls. Hannah really enjoyed having a girl to play with. Noah had a harder time sharing his toys with Ben. They played with cars, trains and musical instruments but nothing lasted as long as the girls' role-play-games. At one point, all four of us were dressed up in costumes: Lauren in one of Mommy's dresses, Hannah in her Minnie Mouse dress, Ben as Lightning McQueen and Noah as Elmo. It got to be a tiring night - Daddy, Grandpa and Jason made lots of noise in the kitchen WAY past our bedtime, so we got to stay up and watch Sesame Street and SuperWhy in the basement with our cousins. We were exhausted by 10 o'clock when we finally got to bed.
We slept in until 7 on Saturday. It finally quit raining, but it was still too wet to play outside. We played Crayola Bingo and Wii games and got to see Daddy Grandpa & Jason put a big glass door in the hole they made in our house!
Unfortunately, Jason & Dani took Ben & Lauren home right after we ate dinner, but Grandma & Grandpa stayed with us for another day. We were still tired, so we took a long nap Saturday afternoon. Grandpa helped Daddy with the door and we went to Target with Grandma. We were very good for her and Mommy at Target!(Hannah LOVES Target!)
We made sure to tell Grandma and Mommy "Happy Mother's Day" right away this morning. We gave Grandma her gift that we made for her, and Mom the gift that Daddy bought for her AND the gifts we made at daycare. We even got out our hammers and helped Grandpa & Daddy work. It's cool to have a new door to the outside!
We're getting very good at spelling, too. We are learning more words every day - mom, dad, mad, mop, red...And Hannah still loves to draw!
It was a very cold and exhausting weekend. But, we had a blast! Grandma talked about riding a train, so hopefully the next time they come see us we get to go see a train! Yeah!
Happy Mother's Day!
Noah & Hannah
