Toohig Tidbits: March

Look who I found in the latest school brochure!

Cress gets bored sitting in the carpool line for 30 minutes before school gets out, so sometimes we go inside and help in the library or just explore.

HG’s friend Annabella has started lessons and rode so well in her first show, and Maddie came to cheer them on.

First time for a family ride around the lake at Shelby Farms (We learned that it might have been too long for the entire park to tolerate listening to Cress scream, “STUCK!!!,” from her stroller.)

I walked into PDO aftercare and found Cress and the kiddos taking a “walk.” Cressey squealed and was happy to see me, but she refused to get out of the crib. I had to walk back to her classroom and then show her the trip was done before she willingly left.

We went in for a lungs’ checkup for both girls. C thought it was cool to watch sissy get looked over, but she was NOT happy (or cooperative) when it was her turn.

Spif has had hip replacement surgery, and I think these two have used her walker more than she has! She has really rocked it and been a wonderful patient.

“Bad kitty!” Blue likes to lay on the warm spot over the ice maker on this counter, and Cressey crawled up there while she was pretending to be a kitty.

HG was making a note for Cressey on her bathroom window.

HG is going to a sleepover summer camp this year, so we went to an open house. I’m not sure either one of my girls will ever leave. C wanted to do whatever HG tried.

HG couldn’t have been more thrilled with the climbing wall and zip lines. And they ride horses!

Paintball was a hit too.
