The Middle Children

Lexa used to say Will was her number 1 best friend. They haven't been getting along as well lately. I think three year olds are hard that way. They still play together every once in a while. They'll play "Will and Lexa's Café" making sand/mud pies, paint pictures together, as long as Will doesn't use her paint because he mixes the colors together. Last night they were playing dress up. Lexa was the queen and was upset with Will because he wanted to be a "Super Villager" instead of the knight or villain Lexa wanted him to be. She then tried to banish him to prison which didn't go over well.

Sometimes she calls him "Cutie Pie".

Lexa loves hanging from the trapeze. She calls me over to watch her do flips She can do them forwards and backwards and flip herself up to sitting on it. She is very careful to make sure I keep watching her.

Swing and Swing and Swing

Pretty much anytime we're outside, Will asks me to push him on the swing. He's always loved to swing and swing and swing.  

We've been enjoying the spring weather. Yellow wildflowers all around, birds chirping, butterflies, and a happy boy flying through the air on his swing hanging from the big mesquite tree. I love these pictures of him.

Lexa hangs

Lexa loves to hang from the trapeze we have hanging from the big mesquite tree, and she loves to have us watch her do flips off of it.

We're going to the zoo zoo zoo

Timmy said the komodo dragon was his favorite animal at the zoo.

Will loved holding and looking at the map.

Will wanted to brush all the animals.

Will decorated the turtle statue with chalk. If you look closely, you can see Timmy sitting behind a tree behind him. Timmy liked that tree. He stayed there for a while.
