Playdate

My friend, Brittni, and her daughter, Avy, came to visit us today for a fun playdate.  I know Brittni from a mom's forum I participate in online and we've been chatting since we were pregnant with our kiddos.  She's from a town about an hour away and although she lives at Camp Pendleton in CA, she's home visiting for a while.  We got together once before when the kids were about 13 months old...they've both gotten so much bigger!  Here's a picture we took when we met up before, outside Cracker Barrel.

Our first activity was to take the kids out to play in the famous Texas bluebonnets.  They were both too interested in wandering around - we couldn't get them to sit down for a picture together.  But at least I wound up with a fun shot of Lawson by himself:

When we were done there, we headed back to our house and made some springtime sugar/cutout cookies.  Lawson and Avy had fun for a while, but then got bored.  Brittni and I had a blast finishing them up!  However, all 4 of us enjoyed eating the yummy final product!

Poor Avy broke her leg a few weeks ago, so she's wearing a cast.  She's a tough little girl - she gets around just fine!
