{almost} kindergartener!

Last week we registered Parker for kindergarten. He was super excited to see his school, ride the school bus, and get a giant cookie! :)

He is too grown up!

brusha brusha brusha!

 

Gotta take care of those pearly whites! The boys have been to the dentist a couple times before, but today was Paisley’s first time. A little apprehensive at first, but when it was her time, she climbed right up into the chair and opened her mouth! She was ready!

Easter Weekend

Ah, springtime. Flowers are blooming. Birds are singing. Sun is shining. It’s time to clean out the closets and de-junk, right? Right.

Thanks to my sister, my living room has been taken over by size 4t boys’ clothes. Seriously, this is a LOT of clothes! So, Jill, you better be grateful! And are you sure Dillon is already in a 4t?

Okay, some are staying here, and some are going to my friend’s little boy…but most of these will be well on their way to Washington. Hopefully by the end of today. It’s killing me that I can’t see my floor!

It’s a bittersweet moment going through Parleigh’s clothes. As I am putting away her newborn and 3 month sizes, {how is she growing up so fast} it makes me sad to think that I don’t need these clothes any more. No more storing them at my in-laws {which I am sure they are thankful for!} and now I just need to find them a good home! Any takers? Why can’t they just stay little?

♥♥♥♥♥

Easter weekend was spent at the in-laws. Since Ben was working Easter Sunday, I figured we could go to their “early” church instead of waiting until 1:00 for ours. Plus I would have help with the kiddos. {Bonus!}

Saturday we had a cookout with lots of yummy dairy-free food. Hamburgers, hotdogs, macaroni and potato salad, deviled eggs, beans, and angel food cake. {Hey, I said dairy-free, not fat free!}

And we got a sneak peak of the girls’ Easter dresses.

IMG_3436Could they be any cuter?

IMG_3480Can you say Diva?

IMG_3483“Blow you a kiss, Mom!”

Since I’ve been able to get all the dairy out of my system, Parleigh’s been able to get it out of her system, and she is back to being a happy baby! Yeah for happy babies! Boo to dairy!

After church I snapped a few photos of my favorite kids!

This girl seriously loves her some dandelions! Every time she goes outside, she picks them, smells them and leaves a yellow mark from her nose to her mouth. Drives.Me.Crazy!

Where’s little Parleigh, you ask?

What a fun weekend!

Good food, good friends, crazy games, and tornado warnings

*so, I totally just spelled tornado t.o.r.n.a.t.o.e, like a torantoe {you know, like tomato with an –e on the end?} What the heck?

Last weekend my friend Chancy was in town, so us girls decided to get together for a GNO. It was a blast. Upon filling our plates up with food, my hubby called to ask if we were following the weather. I knew we were supposed to get rain and all…..but apparently we were under a tornado warning….not just a tornado watch. Kinda scary---considering the fact that we never have tornados around here. Luckily…we weren’t hit, but my heart does go out to those people to the north and south of us who were.

We played games. Visited. And just had fun! Thanks, ladies! We need to get together more often!

 

IMG_3296Even Parleigh had fun! Check out those cheeks! Yum!

Spring Planting

The boys helped Ben plant the garden. Parker said, “We’re just like real farmers, Mom!” They especially loved running in the dirt. I guess I don’t let them get dirty enough, but I’m sure this made up for it! They were filthy!
