Is it really March???

This weather has been crazy! And by crazy I mean absolutely amazing! It certainly doesn't feel like March in Illinois, but I will not complain one bit!

We have been enjoying a lot of time outdoors!

Paige had her first ride in a swing!


I would say she thoroughly enjoyed it - laughing & screaming with joy the whole time!


Luke went down the slide no less than one hundred times!


We took our first wagon ride of the Spring.




I have to say I was surprised how well Paige sat in the wagon. I figured we would be halfway through the walk and I would be holding Paige, pulling the wagon, and walking Nala. I thought for sure she would be struggling to get out, but she just played with the straps and took in the fresh air!


We played in the grass...


and crawled in the driveway.


We got out the baseball gear!


And took a few swings! (I thought some of Luke's shorts would still fit him this summer considering his waist size has not changed much, but when I put these on him, I realized how much taller he has gotten! These shorts used to go below his knees!)


We enjoyed some ice cream outside the ice cream shop!


Paige got her first taste of ice cream too - chocolate! Lucky girl!


And she liked it :)




I have a lot more outdoors pictures coming your way!

Happy St. Patty's Day

Love these two little leprechauns! I will back with many more St. Patty's Day pictures, but for now we are off to enjoy this 80-degree day at Wally's baseball game!

Mommy Time

There is a lot of Mommy and kid time these days with baseball season getting underway.

We like to take pictures together on my phone!




And Luke likes to watch himself in video mode! (Do these videos work for you? Can someone please tell me? They don't seem to run very well for me.)


We also like to send these videos to Daddy!

Special Delivery

I forgot I had these pictures on my phone. This is from when we helped Aunt Stacey and Michael move into their new home!

Tubby Times Two

Last Tuesday night was Paige's first time in the actual tub and out of her ducky tub.





She really wanted to drink the water!


It was also the first night that the two of them bathed together! I asked Luke earlier in the day if he wanted to take a bath with his sister and he said, "Yeah, that's a great idea!".

And She's Off!

I knew it wouldn't be long before Paige was 'on the go'!

This is the furthest we've seen her go yet! So far she seems to crawl mostly towards trouble. I think we will have our hands full with this one!

[Don't mind the streaker in the beginning and a very excited Daddy :)]

Make a video - it's fun, easy and free!

Spring is Near!

This week we had a couple of nearly 70 degree days! We were able to play outside for a bit one of the two days, but I have to say that the wind was killer (hence the hat on Paige). She definitely didn't know what to do about the wind. It kept taking her breath away.

Paige wasn't so sure about this grass stuff at first.


I assured her that it isn't always this hard, sharp, and brown. Soon enough it will be green and soft!


I'm thinking maybe Luke needs some new outdoor toys this year!








Luke must have went up and down the driveway on this thing about 25 times!


Then he moved on to some tennis!


Always looking for her brother bear!




Push up time!


Obviously there was something much more exciting going on down the street.
