"It's NOT Cold Anymore!"

Um..sure Olivia, I am can take a hint...you want to go outside and play! And you know what? You're right, it's not cold outside anymore, well, somedays it is, but not today!  So, after naptime, on this gloriously beautiful Saturday in March, Matt took the girls outside and took some super cute pictures while I cleaned up around the house, folded some laundry, and got ready for date night. I must admit, I too am looking forward to the fact that it's not as cold and that spring is coming. It's so wonderful to get the girls outside and to BE outside, I love it. Now, we just need to get some more fun outside stuff for the girls to play with all spring/summer/fall. As for the girls, Grandma reported that whatever we did with the girls today, really wore them out and that they went to bed very well for her! :) Always a goal!

Little Miss Sydney..she sure does love this tricycle....we really need a second!




 What you are NOT supposed to do with the frog wheel barrel......
 and here is why...pretty sure I heard an "I TOLD you so" out of Daddy when she was upset about falling!
 Little Miss Giggle-Butt as her Grandpa calls her....
 "I see you Daddy"...
 Welcome to the Miss O-Olivia section...

She sure is beautiful...sometimes it shocks me that she's mine....


 Playing with a stick and some mud...Daddy's turning them in to messes! I told him to stop because I was NOT going to check out bugs with them like he does!

 I see you Daddy!
 Playing Together...remember my post about why I want to be a twin? Well, here are some more examples...Thankfully we have WAY more days and times of getting along and loving eachother than we do of disliking each other. I always tell them, that they have to love their sister because Mommy wanted a sister, but all she got were all these brothers (to which they have to list off all their Uncles and tell me how much they love them...it's super cute).

 CLEARLY they are going to be partners in crime.....well, they kind of already are...
 Checking out bugs...ick.
 Because it's okay to let your daughters play with sticks and write in mud on the fence so you can take cute pictures...sure honey. You'll be the one pressure washing the fences this spring. stinker!

 Pretty sure there were more bugs over here under the tree they were looking at...
 Flirting with Daddy....
Hope you had a great spring-like weekend!

Our Last Sunday Dinner

With Uncle Mike and Aunt Zomi...so sad. We have no clue what is in store for us (especially since I am posting this after the fact, and we keep asking for Uncle Mikey)....poor kiddos.

oh well, at least it was fun while it lasted, Guess we'll learn to live with seeing them maybe twice a year.


Grandma spoils us...each time we go over to her house we get some cool new toy to play with..neato!
 um..yeah, pretty sure Sydney earned some bad chair time for not listening to Mommy and screaming at her.

 Probably NOT supposed to be on this couch in our shoes.....
 Opening presents from Grandma the spoiler....


 Sydney was totally into the recorder....not necessairly a good thing when you have a headache!


Well Uncle MIkey and Aunt Zomi...we hope you had a safe trip and Uncle Mike does great in his new job and that you're happy in AZ, for now!

Hope All is Well,
J
