Week In Review, Birthday Style

 One of the best parts of having a birthday has to be the next week or so filled with playing with new toys.

Cora, Violet, and yes, even the cats, had fun with Cora's new Friends Lego sets.

Along with the Lego, Cora has used some of her birthday money to purchase some new Calico Critters buildings. She is excited to add the Lakeside Lodge and the bakery to her collection.

 Auntie Mel had to work during Cora's birthday party, so she came over to make her niece Mickey Mouse pancakes for breakfast. Now there was a gift we all enjoyed!

 After the birthday madness died down, we had a normal few days: Mom2Mom, school and preschool, Pioneer Club, volunteering.

On Thursday evening, our friends Emily and Alli came over for dinner and playtime. The big girls led the younger ones in playing school.

Also this week, Violet returned to the doctor for a listen to her lungs. The week before, we'd gone in for an ear infection after nearly two weeks of coughing, and the doctor had found that infection, and also walking pneumonia.

This time, Violet sounded fine, and we were urged to get out of the office before we picked up something else.
