Coughs and Carousels

Well, Maggie had her first trip to an ER yesterday . . . she got sick and had trouble breathing and they gave her some oxygen and albuterol treatments. . . hopefully she'll be fine in a couple of days.

On Friday (that seems like an eternity ago!) we took Maggie to the Mall to enjoy some carousel money she had recieved as an Easter gift. She had so much fun! She's ridden on this carousel two or three other times so she is finally getting comfortable enough with it to enjoy sitting on the moving horse. Click here to see a short video clip of her ride.

Easter

This was Maggie's first "real" Easter and we had a lot of fun. The week before Easter we got to attend a wonderful Easter Egg Hunt at the Gardens. Maggie's friend, "Whoa" came along and we all had a really great time.

On the Saturday before Easter we made "Resurrection Rolls" - Maggie helped me dip marshmellows in butter and cinnamon and sugar and wrap them up in crescent rolls to bake. They puff up and become hollow (the empty tomb). Maggie had a lot of fun helping me - and the rolls were VERY tasty. . . but I think the symbolism was lost on her. ;-) But I'm looking forward to making that a tradition.

Easter Sunday she had an Easter basket. . . she got some headbands, a stuffed Boz (her favorite TV show) and a Bullfrogs and Butterflies CD (anyone else remember that or is it just me?).

Sunday after her nap we had an Easter Egg hunt with our neighbors and we all had a really good time!
