Saturday I was dragged out of bed (at 10:45am :) by a phone call from Lani. "Miss Tia, when are you coming over to color eggs with me?" Although I hadn't originally understood that I was invited over Saturday AND Sunday (for Easter brunch), I quickly decided a day with the Lauver-Biglan family was way better than my planned day of cleaning.
Here is us coloring eggs with the stuff my mom sent. The kits are SO much cooler than when I was little! You can see I wrote my name on one with this wax crayon that makes it so the dye doesn't stick. I like Sherri's with the polka dots!

That afternoon also involved making necklaces (after I asked Lani if we could do something else when she asked me to play Barbie's. I'm just not good at pretend!). I put the one I made in Lani's Easter basket, and when I went over this morning she ran to me and said THANK YOU FOR THE NECKLACE. She was so excited. It was quite cute. We (Sherri, Lani, Cassie, and I) also had a hilarious time playing Go Fish. The girls understand the idea of the game, but not the subtleties of it. After Cassie asked Sherri for a 2, Lani says loudly, "You should have asked me, I have a 2" and then doesn't ask Cassie for her 2 when it's her turn. We'd tried to explain it, but I don't think they quite got it. It was funny nonetheless.

Peter and his trademark smile. He is the happiest baby, just over 6 months old now.

I can't figure out how to post a video on here, but Peter has the latest craze in baby toys called the "Jumparoo." I think it is so funny to watch him jump around in it. This link will take you to a short clip. I do have to say that it's much funnier in person. He looks like a little kid on a bull ride!

Today I also took over these bubble things on a stick that I used to have as a kid (mom, you'll have to show this to dad because I remember doing this with him). You take this goo stuff and put it on the straw and blow it up. Elena LOVED it and squealed with glee every time she made a bubble. Good times!

In non Easter things:
The flowers my ortho office sent me at work. Creepy! How about you just take the $40 off of my bill???

Speaking of ortho, my mouth still hurts, but it's getting a tiny bit better and I can now eat solid soft food (I had a fritatta today at Sherri and Kevin's, and muffins. Soft fruit is okay, but even cut-up apples were not doable yet). I also went to get a wire fixed that was poking me, and the stupid lady broke off the entire bracket :( It doesn't go back on until the 16th because the dentist is out of town. I'm starting to get used to seeing myself with braces though. Two more co-workers didn't even notice I had them, and even Sherri didn't notice (and she knew I had gotten them) until 2 hours after I got to her house! They must not be as horribly ugly and obtrusive as I feel that they are.

I got a patio set! Yay! Sherri recommended Big Lots, and I got this:

Regularly $199, on sale for $149, and it is really comfy.
And no one else cares about this except my mom, so mom, this is just for you :) My new shoes from last weekend. Marshall's here has an entire shoe shop. I'm now in love with Liz Claiborne Flex, as all 3 new pairs of heels are those. So comfy! And at $34.99, they didn't break the bank. Here are the two new pairs.

I guess that's all the news from out here. Four weeks until I come home. I'm so excited!!!!
