No Saturday with Maya is ever typical, so hopefully these pictures can demonstrate the winding paths these days take. We start off at an ice skating lesson. Katharine is happy to be on the ice, Maya is not (it is only her second time).
Maya does end up having fun, thanks to Katharine's great teacher Miss Macy.
Maya and Katharine on any given outing; dashing off at full speed hand in hand.
Snacks are served after the ice skating lesson.
Katharine meets up with her friend Sarah from her ice skating class.
After lunch at the Rodi Grill, we swing by Gearbox to run an errand and raid the snack room.
Sugaring up.
The sugaring up fall-out: Maya heads for the bathroom and Katharine starts doing crazy dances in the snack room closet. Note the bright orange fingers.
Katharine and Maya play pinball for the first time together. Katharine controls the left flipper, Maya the right.
Katharine continues on solo with only the left flipper. It doesn't work out so well.
Working off more of that sugar on the ledge outside of the building. They are up to lap six or seven by now.
On the way home they use up about half of my tissue box to create custom outfits for their miniature stuffed animals. In addition to her puffy dress, Katharine's cat has casts on both of her front legs. This is a typical Katharine/Maya theme; cuteness with a tinge of tragedy.
At home; dress-up with attitude. Today's princess word of the day: "accessories".
Lukas and Lennon, currently shut out by the girls, jam to the singing Easter Bunny.
A dinner of chicken nuggets and tater tots. Lennon is dangerously perched over everyone's plates, but his spit-ups have started to subside over the last few days and everything works out fine.
Maya playing baseball. This could be a good bubble gum card picture.
Maya spins around 2-3 times on every swing, so all you had to do was keep your finger on the shutter button and fun pictures materialized.
Lukas's bubble gum card picture.
A princess riding a bike- not a common sight,,,
Unless it is a Saturday with Maya.
Maya would usually go pretty far after a good push, but she probably is still a more natural breaker than peddler.
Lukas loves swings, especially when Jeramy pushes him.
No matter what a Saturday with Maya brings, the ending is all the same: a tearful hug goodbye.
