Porch Time and Pedicures

We have been enjoying sunshine and 80 degrees during the afternoons the past week.  While we live in a 2 bedroom apartment and it's slightly cramped with 5 people, we do have an awesome porch.  The girls can go outside and play water table and whatever else they can think of.  I've had to initiate a few rules:
1.  you must wear clothes
2.  you may not reach over the rail and dig in the flowerbed dirt
3.  you may not drink the water in the water table

On Tuesday, they used their imaginations and decided to give each other pedicures.  It was one of those rare moments when all the planets lined and everything was peaceful.  Olivia sat in her rocker and enjoyed watching the older two play.  
First it was Mavery's turn.

Then Evie got a turn.
(they used the sand sifter for exfoliation... such imagination...)

Then Olivia enjoyed her first pedicure.

And then it was Mommy's turn!

Mavery's chocolate covered duck face

This is the craft Mavery brought home from school last week.  It cracked me up.  They learned about the five loaves and two fishes Bible story.  Their activity was to make the meal with gold fish cracker and croutons to represent the 5 loaves and 2 fishes.  Maves tried to eat hers on the way home from school...but thankfully she stopped when she got to the glue.

(because she doesn't enjoy food in her highchair just yet...)
