Today we ventured to Dutch Wonderland in Lancaster, PA along with a couple of Molly's friends from playgroup (and their parents). Molly was not into most of the rides, especialy the ones she had to ride by herself, but had a great time on the boat and train rides.

Here she is on her one and only solo ride.

We went for a ride on the monorail and got the best seats on the train - all the way in the back. We got to look out the back window like an old-fashioned station wagon.

The one fast ride Molly really wanted to do was the Fun Slide.

Keira won the award for the bravest kid today. She rode multiple rides by herself, and even had a pony ride!

And there's no better way to end the day than with ice cream!

It was a very successful first trip to the "Kingdom for Kids" and Molly (and mommy) crashed on the car ride home.

While in Birmingham, we had fun playing lots of games on their Nintendo Wii. One night, we all had a turn at Wii Boxing, which was lots of fun. Here's G'Mom's turn.

While in Birmingham visiting cousin Emmie for the first time, Molly decided to share her high chair with Curious George (thanks to G'Mom and Grampa for George). She also used Lambie as a nice placemat and some shapes for refreshing drinks.

On Saturday, Jeremy made us all a fabulous breakfast, including beignets, sausage and eggs. The baby girls' Great Grandma Dot also came over to visit for the morning. I think Emmie enjoyed being with her, what do you think?

Molly had fun peeking around Mommy at Uncle J at the table.

Sunday brought the biggest snow fall to Birmingham that had seen in years (a mere 2 inches, ha!), but that didn't stop us from making it to Emmie's baby dedication. Jeremy did a great job driving such precious cargo to the church. Here's Michelle and her sweet baby girl on her big day.

We tried our best to get a picture of the sisters and their daughters. It's getting more and more difficult to get Molly to sit still, so here's our best effort.

And one more fun picture to share...Chad caught Emmie mid-sneeze!

Chad, Molly and I flew down to Birmingham this past Thursday to meet our new neice Emily. Molly did great on the flight, however she must have been so excited to meet her new cousin that she decided to skip her nap entirely, even staying awake on the car ride to Aunt 'Chelle's.

We decided to play a little Wii after dinner. Michelle decided to show off her incredible ability to multi-task.

G'mom and Grampa arrived on Friday afternoon and quickly learned that if you are eating a snack that means sharing with Molly! Molly has become quite the mooch if you are eating any kind of snack in front of her.

We tried to get Molly to give Emmie kisses multiple times over the weekend, but this is the best shot we could get. We realized that if anyone was holding Emmie, Molly didn't really want to come to you. Molly didn't act up, and she wasn't mean to Emmie, she just decided that a baby wasn't fun to play with so she tended to stay away.

Note - this video is long, which means it is very big. Don't be surprised if it takes a while to load before playing. Just be patient and it'll start eventually.

Jen's cousins gave us a dance demonstration. You have to watch the video for the full effect, but I'm glad they have other talents. If you know any of Chris's friends, please pass this along to them ;-)

Molly opened presents here, there, and everywhere over a couple of weeks. Note that because there were so many presents, this video may take some time to load before starting.
