Mother’s Day

We spent this morning at a favorite spot of mine.

And had a very nice lunch followed by some fun at the mall with Miss Maeve.  The idea was for us to build a bear *together* but that quickly turned into Maeve’s bear.

Meet ‘Eye.’  Yes, Eye.  She insisted that she wanted a black bear that was a boy and was named Eye.

He had to have a hat (she wanted the straw hat with a pink bow but I nixed that one since it was supposed to be a boy bear).  He also had to have sunglasses like Daddy, a black shirt that matched his fur and black pants to match his black shirt and black shoes to complete the outfit.  Oh, and boy undies.  Rounding out the ensemble are the roller skates… just like (Curious) George.  Everyday she makes a pair of ‘skates’ out of paper and then skate/ski poles out of her Tinker Toys and skates around upstairs like George.

So we headed out to pick up a new pair of shoes for her because she needed them and we were there so why not?

Of course Eye had to skate along.

And through Nordies too.

And eventually her arm got tired and I carried him and then he hitched a ride with Liam in the stroller.  Throw in some gelato and it was a fantabulous day.  Smooches to my babies ’cause I love you to pieces.
