Times flying by

 Time is flying.  I felt like lots has happened since I last blogged.  We had another snow day.  The kids loved playing out in the snow.

Our slide is pretty fun in the snow. 

The kids celebrated their 100th day of school.  

We cuddled up for about a week and are now experiencing 70 degree weather.

Evan is getting braver.  He will stand and eat.  He will stand and throw a ball.  He will stand and do anything, except take a step.  ha ha

I do dress him occasionally despite what these pictures show.  ;)

We had a great Valentines Day.  I made Michael this little basket.  He got me some chocolate bars from Aldi and running attire for me.  yeah!  The kids got loads of candy and pencils.  

We have been busy and are loving the awesome weather right now!  

President Obama

Did you think you were going to get a political post?  Joshua had to do a report for Black History month. He picked President Obama.  He had to do a written report as well as an oral report.  We thought he did a great job.  I found a fold your own White House on line, so that worked out great for the visual aid.  

Minnie Mouse Birthday for Leah

 Leah requested Minnie Mouse everything for her Birthday.  I'm not sure where her love of Minnie came from, but we had fun with it.  I attempted a Minnie Mouse cake.  My sister in laws make wonderful cakes, so don't compare mine to theirs.  ha ha  Leah liked it, and that's what's important.  :)

Leah is so spunky.  At Church a friend of ours nicknamed her the Texas Tornado.  I think it fits.  She is very independent.  She finds a way to get what she wants.  She is the perfect mix of girly and rough and tumble.  (nothing wrong with being girly or rough and tumble, I just like the balance she has)  She fits perfectly in our family.  She loves singing and dancing.  She loves to read books and go to the library.  Dress up is one of her new favorite things to do.  

Aunt Jenny and Uncle Tony got her this cute Minnie out fit.  She loves it!

We made Mickey and Minnie mouse pizzas.  I didn't get a picture before we ate, so I manufactured one.  When I would ask Leah what she wanted for dinner she would tell me Minnie mouse, so this is what we came up with.

She has the best reactions to presents.  She was so excited to open everything up.  She was blessed with so many great Minnie mouse gifts.  :)

Aunt Jessica and Uncle Dustin got her this cute tea set.  My boys are awesome big brothers and will play tea party with her.

Happy Birthday Leah bug!
