March was another fun month for us as usual. We've been a little on the lazy side because of the up and down weather. We got outside more in the month of February than we did March thus the kids had some pent up energy. Macie Jo got a little crazy with the easy cheese. Boy was she in heaven. She thought it was well worth it too because she got a bath afterwards and baths are her very favorite. When she hears the water running in the tub she comes rip roaring through the house tripping over her little legs as she's trying to rip her diaper off just so she can get into the tub.
I finally left my 20's and entered my 30's. It wasn't as quite painful as I thought it would be, but Travis is sure to remind me on a DAILY basis that I am the oldest person in the family because I am 30 and dad is ONLY 29. Hmm I wonder who started that one?!
Here are some more pictures of the kids. One night when Ben and I were going to bed we found Natalie sleeping in our bed covered in cookies. That little stinker got up in the night for a bedtime snack apparently. I got to hand it to her. She's pretty tricky. Macie is also a cute little stink. She tries so hard to fit in with the big kids. She's really been enjoying an education app I put on the tablet for the kids. She stole Travs headphones just to listen to it in the quiet. Travis is such a good brother. He really adores his sisters. He is so good to play hide and seek and tag with them in or outside of the house. The three are quite the trio together.
Travis has been enjoying basketball at school so we found a great deal on a hoop and Ben put it together with help from the kids. We all went and played a little basketball in the garage after. It was pretty fun.
On one of my very rare times where I leave the kids with Ben while I go out, Ben likes to make pizza with the kids. They enjoy their much needed Daddy time and I enjoy my much needed alone time.
The day before Easter we finally made time to color some eggs real fast. It was short activity, but the kids enjoyed it. Later on in the day Travis had his first friend over to the house. It was perfect because they were both wearing Batman shirts totally unplanned. They played video games the entire time. It was nice to see him playing with peers.
The Easter Bunny paid the kids a visit on Easter. Macie did not like putting the eggs back in the carton after finding them. She wanted to keep them all. Natalie taught Macie her tradition of biting the heads off the Peeps and then wasting the bodies. Such a morbid little girl, but we love her.
