Happy St. Patrick's Day!!

Ceili has been VERY interested in St. Patrick's Day this year! She even painted this picture of a rainbow with a pot of gold...her attempt at catching the leprechaun!! We set it out on the kitchen table to see if he would come so we could catch him the other night. The next morning she was soooo excited to go downstairs to see if we caught him...he wasn't there, but he must have been there because he did leave behind some of his gold coins!! Ceili was so excited that the leprechaun had been there and left gold coins that she didn't even care that we hadn't actually caught him. Here are some pictures of her with her picture and coins!
This morning, I thought she would think it was fun to have a special breakfast for St. Patrick's Day. I made green eggs and pancakes for breakfast with green milk to drink! Ceili thought it was the greatest!! It's amazing how easy they are to please at her "almost FOUR" age!!
Keaton, on the other hand, would not even touch his breakfast! He is my child who eats ANYTHING, but would not even think about trying his green eggs and pancakes! However, he had no problem drinking his green milk - I did sneak that past him!!
