Spring

So after my post on everyone being sick, everyone got sicker :) The girls both came down with fevers. Sam got an ear infection, ruptured an eardrum, and then had an allergic reaction to the antibiotic. Viv had the stomach flu for 5 days, and Rob had it for 2 (then he took step 3 of his boards--and passed!). Everyone is fine now, knock on wood!!!

Anyway, I know I shouldn't complain since we have not had any flooding or tornadoes, but I have never been SO ready for Spring.

Here are some pictures of what we've been up to:

Playing basketball (had to post this outfit)

Listening to bedtime stores with Aunt Kristy

Spending plenty of time on the swingset

Going on walks

Loving all the green, finally!

Being forced to pose in front of tulips

Picking dandelions

And more dandelions, then being forced to pose in front of the "popcorn tree"

It's time for bed, maybe I'll post again someday :) Meanwhile, happy Spring!

He Only Looks Innocent

One of our kids' favorite books is "No, David!" by David Shannon. They

all know it word for word and chime in enthusiastically. I think they can relate to it, plus they love the page where he runs naked down the street. A few months ago, we got to this page:

and Sam said, "His mom is in the bathroom!"

Because that is exactly what happens at our house. Here he is on the counter getting into his stash of Easter candy. That little stinker!
