The "F" word

When Cade was learning how to read, he liked to play a little game called guess what word I'm going to say, where he would give us the first letter of the word and we had to guess it. One day we were mattress shopping and he came along to the store. He noticed that the salesman was giving out balloons, and I said "I bet if you're good, he might give you one" and Cade said "If he does, I might say the "F" word". Cautiously and curiously I said "Whats . . . the . . "F" . . word? To which he exclaimed "You KNOW, F-F-F-Fank you!"

Is it spring YET?


This is the view from my kitchen window. In the summer it is the most gorgeous tree, but this is what I've been looking at for waaaaay to long. It's almost ridiculous now how many times we have woken up to snow in March and now April! Good grief, again?!? Every morning my kids go off to school without coats, because according to the calendar, they insist it is warm! After school the snow has usually melted, so they continue to pretend its warm and play outside, barefoot, until their feet turn purple. Then they come inside to grab a jacket (but still don't want shoes!)Yesterday Bailey took a picnic to the park with her friend, despite what I would call cold temperatures. We are all a little anxious for sunshine and in need of some vitamin D!

Valentine cookies

Bailey loves holidays (just like her mom) and wanted to invite her friends over to decorate cookies. Bailey ended up getting the flu on Valentines and missing all the fun at school. She was sooooo upset, but I picked up her valentines from her classmates so she could read them in bed!

Avery said "Look mom, its a hat" as she put her diaper on her head. She is always making us smile!
