Picnic in the Living Room!


Lola's school had to postpone its annual picnic (scheduled for tonight) due to buckets of rain today and yesterday, so Dad suggested that we picnic in the living room. He made the delicious lasagna that he had been planning to bring to the school picnic (potluck). We love spinach lasagna!
Can you tell that I taught four classes today?
Mom's contribution: smores made over the stove. Lola ate both the straight chocolate and the smores.

Blitz of Gifts for Lola

Last Saturday brought a double-present postal delivery for Lola. The first package contained this gorgeous mermaid shirt from Grandma W. Lola is attempting simultaneously to show off the shirt and the mushrooms she is cooking (she had to request dad's help to display both at once).
This outfit was sent by Grandma P. Matching shoes!
Here's Lola in mommy's new work shirt, and mommy's makeup! I know I scored a good purchase because Lola wants to wear it, right?

July Fourth Family TIme

Here are Lola and Mommy testing how well an umbrella works in a sprinkler-storm (our camera seems to be enjoying a last burst of energy).

Lola's first encounter with a bag of charcoal: she didn't know that charcoal would rapidly cover her if she touched it!
Lola's new Dora bike helmet (she suggested the coordinated outfit).

Here is the bunny that Lola feeds at her school.

I convinced Lola to adopt this 4th-of-July attire by telling her I would do her hair like Pippi Longstocking's (her current idol).
