Crawfish

Thursday was Match Day for LSU Med Students. Cameron of course knew he matched here for the rest of his oral surgery residency, but he got to come to the festivities anyway. They had aceremony to hand out everyone's letters followed by a crawfish boil. Scarlett had been talking about this for WEEKS. How she loves crawfish, she can't wait to have crawfish at daddy's dental school, she's going to eat them - not the claws, just the tails. She sees pictures of crawfish everywhere and has to point them out. She drags me to the seafood section of the grocery store just to see the crawfish. She really truly had me believing she was going to eat one. Well, it went a little something like this:

Haha...I should have known! She wouldn't touch them. Even when I peeled them for her, she wouldn't touch it.

Here's a few more pictures from the day:

Aquarium

We made a trip to the aquarium on Friday. Trying to take advantage of my yearly pass before it expires! It was not Elle's first visit, but it was the first where she was actually alert enough to know what was going on and she LOVED it! She was so excited to talk to the fish. Scarlett loves it there too. She kept talking about seeing "pink fish and blue fish".

Here's Elle - so excited when we first walked in

SHARKS!

Mardi Gras 2011

Happy Mardi Gras! We had such a fun time at the parades today. We were so lucky the weather held out....just a few sprinkles, but it was cloudy and 70 - so very pleasant. The girls love love loved it. Scarlett didn't want to leave! She kept wanting to catch more more more. Elle loved it too. She loved watching the floats, listening to the music and just being in the whole scene.

Here's the girls getting ready. Scarlett asked where her Mardi Gras shirt was. I said she didn't have one and she insisted I should have made one. Oops. Well, purple and green from the closet it is :o)

New Tricks!

So here's our sweet little Elle...

Who is fast becoming a big girl!

She's started pulling up now. She wants to stand ALL the time! Still no crawling, but she does roll all over the place and is pretty good at getting into what she gets her eye on.

And here's Scarlett - showing off her new Mickey dress. We got the tshirt in Disney and she refused to wear it until I sewed a skirt on it. Now she LOVES it!

Spring Pictures

I just picked up the girls' spring pictures yesterday. I just LOVE how they turned out! Here are a few of my favorites:
