April...
So my son's new favorite thing to play is 'guns'.. being that I'm a girl, and have only sisters, I don't understand the whole 'playing guns' thing. It's taking a lot out of me to be able to 'accept' that its just a boy thing, and that he is gonna do it (his father did when he was little, so why shouldn't our son ?!?! ) SO what better way than to sit back and watch, than to just join in!! Sister loves to play now too!!!! :(
And who can turn away a bouquet of flowers from your favorite children? Not me, so we put them in water and they lived.... ahem... a few minutes :)
FINALLY its been nice enough to put the clothes on the line to dry!! Nothing better sun dried clothes. Doesn't heat my house up, and the clothes smell so good when they come inside!! I could only be Amish in the summer time.. something about freeze drying your clothes doesn't sound all too appealing to me
My favorite flower was in bloom for a very short time! And I only have about 25 plants, of which only about 5 of them had blooms. I LOVE lilly of the valley and wish they bloomed longer and that I had a whole garden full of them. Guess I'll just have to enjoy the bouquets my Mother in law gives me, as she has a patch to die for!!!!! But then again, her patch is probably about 30 years old, and mine is well, maybe 3 :) Don't think we will be in this house for another 27 years to get the big patch like her, so I can only hope our next house already has a big established patch just waiting for me

The Wilson's
Back in March the kids and I got the pleasure of watching 2 of the cutest little girls!! J was 3 (is 4 now, as she had a birthday the beginning of April) and A is 1 1/2 (almost exactly a year younger than Mallory). The kids had a ball, and Mallory enjoyed dressing up. Guess its time to find some more girly things for this house filled with tractors and cars !!!

A giving me her big smile while not quite sure if she wants to walk or get back down and crawl :)
I got the three younger ones to actually all take a nap, and after they got up from naps, they were still in la la land.. they watched a little tv, but then were right back to playing with all the toys!!!
J was insistent that we go outside to find 'Princess Mobobile' or something along those lines.. so she got all dressed and kept wanting to out the front door. I didn't let her, being the bad sitter that I am, and she wasn't very happy about that. Had she wanted to go in the FENCED in back yard, I would have abliged. BUT she was wanting to walk the sidewalks out front, and I didn't want their neighbors wondering if there was anyone watching these kids, or if they were just fending for themselves for the day!
The minute her daddy got home, she wanted to go out. And I'm told he did take them both out for a walk after we left, so she did finally get to go on her search :)
We had a great afternoon with the girls

So I was just sitting here looking thru the videos I have of the kids, and came across the following one. My sister Darcy took the video one Saturday when she was watching the kids for me. Darcy is sure she says 'pixie dust' in there.. see if you can hear it :) Amazing how much her hair has grown in only 5 months!!!
