indoor picnic

We had originally planned to take the kiddos on a picnic at the park, but given the ever changing and always surprising Colorado weather we had to come up with a new plan. Jess, Andrew, and Hanna joined us for dinner and some play time back at our house because of the pesky rain. The big kids scarfed down lasagna and had a great time playing together. Lots of running, laughing, squeeling, and shrieking. Annabelle couldn't get enough of baby Hanna and wanted to rub her back, tickle her feet, and made sure she had plenty of toys. Gwyneth was not quite as hospitable and although she was happy to rub Hanna's back she wasn't so sure about sharing. It seems our baby girl enjoys being the baby girl and has some work to do on sharing with little ones. I try to be compassionate though - she has always had toys snatched from her and seemed a little too excited to finally be the big girl who can do the snatching. We'll be working on that! (I do let her steal toys from Annabelle on occassion just so she can feel the rush....shhhh....that's our little secret! Don't tell Annabelle!).

The second one always seems to be quick....
