Strawberries

It was fishing last weekend and strawberries this weekend. I took the girls to pick strawberries for the first time. We've done blueberry picking a few times, but we've never picked strawberries. We tried to go last year, but the place was unexpectedly closed. This year was a total success. Adia and Mira were my star berry pickers, as usual. Leia picked a dozen or so, ate a couple and declared she was done. She spent the rest of the time dancing along the rows and "helping." Adia filled her entire bucket by herself and Mira's was almost completely full. She was also covered in strawberry juice. Thank you Oxyclean. After picking nearly 15lbs of berries, they got to play and meet some animals.

Adia really loved the goats. Mira fed one of the sheep.

Then it was back to the playground.

Today Adia had her last field trip of the school year. She played miniature golf for the first time and loved it. It's definitely something we'll have to do again this summer. She had trouble eating the pizza though because her second bottom incisor was barely hanging on. Daddy and I offered to pull it out all day long, but she wouldn't let us. She hardly ate at dinner because biting and chewing proved difficult. She's also getting her 6 year old molars on the opposite side as before. Mira and Leia devoured dinner, however. Mira's eyes lit up when she saw meat on a stick. That's her kind of food.

After dinner, when the girls were supposed to be cleaning up the playroom, they started horsing around. I told Daddy that I bet Mira punches Adia in the face and knocks her tooth out. I was close. Mira hit Adia in the face with a plastic chair and out came her tooth. She's now 2 teeth down, the tooth fairy was out of cash so she had to use nickels and dimes, and Adia's speech is rather interesting.

And the girls all piled onto Daddy's back which reminded me of a similar picture from almost 2 years ago. They've all grown and changed so much.
