April: Week 1

We've really been trying to make an effort to get out and do things with the children. And I feel like the first week of April, we were really on a roll!

On Friday we went on a super long walk and saw horses, butterflies, and lots of pretty flowers.

On Saturday we went into the heart of Winston Salem and took pictures in front of the very first Shell Gas Station. It's in a sketchy part of town and if you're not paying attention, you'll drive right by it (like we did at first). 

On Tuesday we went to the Library for singing and story time and Lily came home with a pretty cool fish craft that she made. 



On Wednesday Katlyn came and visited us after her shift at Hardees. Katlyn is one of our very favorite, favorite people! So we took her on one of Lily's favorite outings: a walk! We showed her all the flowers that Lily loves, and ran into some other friends during our trek around the neighborhood.

Then on our way home, everyone was tired and didn't want to walk up the big hill! So the kids took advantage of the fact that there was a stroller and all jumped on to be pushed up the big hill!


On Thursday we went to visit baby Jaxen. Lily was in heaven and just wanted to hold him incessantly. Babies are lovely, but Lily and babies are a perfect match. She loves babies and her whole demeanor changes when you put one in her lap. Because of this, she is such a good big sister!

So, it may not seem like a busy week. But we had a fun week and were able to see a lot of friends and get out and do a lot of things as a family.
