By far, one of the highlights of Keira's week is Kid Swap. Since the fall, she and Ella have been hanging out at each other's houses for about 4 hours at a time while each mama has a break. Below is a sampling of pictures from swap (I don't really think they're in chronological order, but it is a great sampling of all the fun!).
There are endless possibilities for activities to do during kid swap...such as, laundry!
Keira loves to help with laundry!
Swapping at Ella's house always includes SUPER fun activities like painting.
Two little chefs making their lunches!
Vegetables in mac-n-cheese...? Whaaat?!
Cutting out collage art
At least Mackenzie & Ella can get her to eat vegetables!
Making personal pizzas--yum!
Water color fun
They were making up their own rules for Hi-Ho Cherry-O!
Technically, this wasn't a swap day, but an impromptu outing to see Hullabaloo and visit the UTC mall while Momma Mack was sick. The girls had so much fun!
Watching the ice skaters while eating our lunch.
Checking out the new playground at the UTC mall.
Just playing with random toys.
The look on Keira's face makes me think there is a disagreement going on...hmmm...?
Jumping on the trampoline!
Probably one of Keira's favorite activities to do at Ella's house!
They styled Strawberry Shortcake's hair all by themselves
Time for some science fun!
I think they are making gak...??
Ooey, gooey!
More science experiment fun!
Mixing colors, water, baking soda, etc.
Perfect preschooler fun!

It's really fun when Grandad stops by to read books during lunch!
Pure joy

Sometimes Kid Swap includes a field trip to fun places!
This time it was an outing to Kidding Around--yay!

Making silly faces is another favorite activity!
Hunting for Easter eggs
Keira said, "Mackenzie calls this 'arms around each other'"
She has trained them well!
They wanted to have matching hairstyles
They each really wanted to take turns taking pictures of each other with me.
So funny!
Kid Swap days are the BEST!
Thank you, Momma Mack, for taking great care of Keira and it is always a pleasure to have Ella over to our house too!
