March madness

At the beginning of March our baby turned 2 and princess came to stay with us.  March flew by, which was kind of nice because it was a chilly one!

I can say that my joyful Joshua has a passionate personality like his mommy.  What he hasn't realized yet is that my will is a bit stronger than his.  For now we are coming up with creative ways to teach him that his choices have consequences, both good and bad.  Whenever he is having a rough day I just try to picture this in my head:

Who couldn't love this cute little face?!

As for adding a princess to the house, that has been nothing but a blessing.  The boys LOVE having her in our home.  Every time Casey walks by her he plants a kiss on her head.  Caleb loves to hold her and thinks it is so funny when she grabs his hand.  Joshua likes to share his toys with her and enjoys lying by her when she is doing tummy time.  I feel like we are teaching the boys a lot about compassion and love.  She will always have a special place in our hearts, no matter what the outcome of the situation.

Now to the fun stuff...what we've been up to this month!  

Casey finished his season of UPWARD basketball

 We celebrated Matt's 34th birthday by taking all 4 kids for dinner at Chili's

 (kids eat free on Tuesday nights)

 Grandma Jill came to visit for a weekend and we crammed in a ton of fun!  We went to the Museum, dyed Easter eggs, went bowling and ate dinner at our favorite train restaurant, La Estacion.

Bowling on a Sunday afternoon 

When we were blessed to have a nice day we would get out and play.  Let me tell you, these 3 boys have some serious energy to burn.  

Alright spring, we are ready for you!
