Tuesday - Alligators & Teapots

Great combination, huh? Olivia had quite the day! Most of you know we do Alligator Steps on Tuesdays. Today was Gabe's last one, since they are leaving next week (Boo!), so I brought my little camera to get some shots of them playing. After Alli-steps and nap time, we had a little tea party with Haruka. And since Angie and Gabe are leaving soon, I invited them over too. After the tea party we went and bought Daddy's tickets to go home (YAY!). So now we have guaranteed days when he will be in NY, and he is taking the same flight home with Olivia and I. So that is nice. And after we bought the tickets, we headed to the NCO club - It was Two-for-Tuesday, so we had a great dinner for cheap.
Whew! That was a lot. Check out how our day went!

Story time at Alligator Steps. I think the are conspiring to get into something here - clearly not paying attention to the story:


Ok, well Gabe is pretending to pay attention:


Free Play - they usually stick with each other:


Parachute time! Olivia's favorite:

Vain much? Being a diva here and not paying attention:

This is during the Bubble Song. She does know the song, but was just doing her own thing today. Silly girl. Take a look:

At the end of class...Where's Alli?


There she is!


Here we are back at my house for Tea. We enjoyed 3 different kinds of tea, using my lovely fancy tea set. Cucumber tea sandwiches, pasta salad, and muffins were on the menu. Haruka also baked some yummy sweets.

Haruka always makes things look so stylish and cute! These are muffin/scones (we couldn't decide) shaped like little roses, wrapped up with little red ribbons:

And the kids enjoyed their own tea. They are so cute together. What do you think they are saying to each other?

Probably something like, "Your mom takes too many pictures..."

Haruka and I before dinner:

After dinner - She passed out on the way home. Fun-filled days tire babies out:

So sleepy, didn't even want to wake up for medicine:
