Another great Easter for the DeCastro girls, although Sophie says she still prefers Santa but loves baby Jesus :) We went to church with the family and then to Great Grandma's house to celebrate Great Grandpa's 84th b-day! He was able to come over from the nursing home for a few hours. Then, we visited Great Uncle Gene's farm and his new alpacas. The girls really enjoyed seeing all of the animals and especially the horses. Then, we went back to Ma Ma and Ta Ta's and the girls played hide n seek with Tilly (their dog) and Ava did a great job of holding her own in a game of ping pong with Cindy.
Sophie did this herself and said she was being a smiley face!
Here is Ava just before the start of her first game, she ran over to me just as the game was starting and said, "This is going to be tricky mom..." Ava was able to choose her team's new name.............The Red Dragons! She ALMOST scored her first goal, if she would've blown hard enough it would have rolled over the line! The girls are back in swimming lessons and having fun (except for going under water which Sophie is NOT a fan of). Ava will soon be attending her preschool graduation and we have enrolled her in kindergarten............I can't believe it!? Sophie has also been enrolled in preschool for the fall, where have my babies gone? I am very proud of Ava, she is writing all of her numbers/letters, family members names, she knows her address/ph#/birthdate/what # to call in an emergency/who the president is, etc. She is definitely a smarty pants!
