Cousin visit

Emmy came home for Mother's Day weekend, and came to see Ava and Harper first thing this morning. Unfortunately, Ava was feeling a little under the weather with a cold she caught from Harper. Neither were their perky selves today, a little bit needy, but they still had their appetites (cardamom bread was a hit with them today) and still played quite a bit. I did give Harper some Tylenol in the afternoon, she was so cranky, we thought maybe her gums were bothering her.
Once it warmed up, Rielee wanted to go out to the sandbox, so we put Ava in the stroller, and Em carried Harper. Rielee managed to get Emmy up in the playfort, and Emmy said it seems a lot smaller now than it used to. She was about 9 yrs. old when it was built.
Rielee had a scary run-in with a slug today. There was one on the sidewalk in front of the house, so she ran all the way around the house screaming for me so I could get rid of it, shaking in her flip-flops. It seems she has the same fear of slugs that Parker had. She wouldn't go out there until I had hosed it completely out of her sight.

Update: Rielee read her book to the class today.
