New Friends

Today our family actually ventured out and made new friends! It was great fun, we had tasty food and Caroline was able to make a new friend (a boy even), which is great because when Mabel leaves she will have a total of zero. We all had a great time and Caroline was sad to leave. As we drove out of their driveway she said, "Bye friend." It doesn't sound like much but I thought it was really cute. I think she might have a little crush on her new friend.

Now that's love

So Caroline apparently loves ice cream so much she's even willing to eat it out of the trash can. Yes, the other day I caught her putting her hand in an empty carton of ice cream that had been thrown away and licking it. It was so nasty an funny at the same time. The best part was seeing her face when I asked what she was doing. Her face was covered in chocolate and she had a look of total innocence. I love having a toddler.

Third Times a Charm

Or at least I hope so because I'm sick of moving every year. Yes will be moving yet again this summer. For those who have lost track that's the third time in the last three years. Our apartment complex is remodeling and making everyone move out and raising rent. Since our apartment isn't even 900 sq. ft. my husband and I have decided that it's time to move on to greener pastures (or at least bigger). I have to say I think we have the worst luck in picking apartment complexes. Hopefully we'll be able to stay in the new place for the final 2 years of med school. I'm not getting my hopes up.

Thanks to everyone for making my birthday great!

Poll Results

I thought that with all of the choices being an Elmo toy people would get thrown off. Aparently not. The winner as most of you guessed is the Elmo cell phone, however she really does like the file folders.

No Candy

Yesterday morning after Caroline had eaten several eggs full of Easter candy Shawn and I decided it was time to put the candy away. Being the nice parents we are we let Caroline put it away herself. That might not have been the best idea. A few minutes after putting her candy away we were getting ready for church and heard Caroline running around. Shawn went to go investigate and found her on the opposite side of the room eating something. She looked at him and said, "No candy." He asked her if she was eating candy and she said, "yes." It turns out she was waiting for us to leave the room then ran and got candy then ran to the other side of the room thinking we would never know. Turns out we aren't that thick.
