The rest of March

Kate turned two on a Sunday, which meant she got to move up from the nursery to Children’s Church! She was just as excited about that as the fact it was her birthday! Here are her and Pres in front of her nursery room the last Sunday she was there.

While we were in Florida, Luke put up a backsplash in our kitchen…it looks awesome, but I am not sure who watched the kids while this was completed!

Just hanging out!

Cousin Audrie came to visit during Spring Break. We had a wonderful day at the zoo!

And loved playing outside!

One day while I was sleeping, Luke let the kids play in the sprinkler. He told me he got some cute pics (which he did!) but I laughed looking through them because I assumed the kids would be in their swimsuits! Another reason why Daddy is more fun! A leprechaun came to visit on St Patty’s Day!

We love receiving birthday mail..especially hand made dresses from Aunt Jan!

The night before Kate turned three..

And the morning of her birthday!

When I asked her what she wanted for breakfast, she requested bacon and eggs from Layla’s chickens…and that’s what we had!

Her lunch request was El Porton and a gumball at the end! She cracked me up when they sang to her…no free smiles here, senors!

We stopped on the way home to take some pictures in front of these gorgeous cherry trees. I remember when we left the hospital after she was born, & they had bloomed almost overnight then, too!

My little cowboy cheesin it up! He anticipates the flash now with shut eyes :)

How much does Mommy love you?

Little monkey.

We had a birthday dinner for Grammy on the Friday night before Kate’s party. Kate and Preston painted her a birdhouse and Luke attached a wind chime to the bottom.

After Kate’s party, the family stayed over at my parents’ for a cookout for my Mom’s bday.

The newest member of the family! Aunt Tracy gifted Kate as many wands as any good fairy will ever need!

Playing with Papa Q and Ninabelle.

These crack me up so much!

 

Kate got her first big booboo from the big slide at Shelby Farms :(

Play group at church:

 

So exciting…more birthday mail from Aunt Hilda!!

And her three year old check up! She weighed 33 lbs and was 3 feet 3 inches tall on her 3rd birthday! Anyone that knows me knows I love things that are divisible by 3. She couldnt have done better!

Eden and I braved the zoo one day last week with five kids 3 and under. They were all so good, & the kids had a wonderful time!! I am so thankful for our zoo, & friends like Eden who are braver than I am!
