Where Is Spring?

I'll begin with my annual St. Patrick's Day picture.  We didn't go to the parade this year given the chilly weather.  But the kids did wear their green.

Yesterday we woke up to 6 inches of snow on the ground.  No school and Lia napping allowed the kids and I to get out and make a snowman.

Back inside, George plays with his screwdriver and truck...

...Patrick gets in his required reading time...

...Cecilia sucks on her toes...

...and Becca  gets cheesy.

The women of the house.

This is a picture from a birthday party.  Don't you love the blue tongue?

Friday George was diagnosed with a double ear infection with goop running out of his eyes.  Today Patrick followed with a throat and ear infection.  Becca seems to be doing okay and Cecilia can't tell us how she feels.  Remember it's Holy Week and give a moments pause to thank God for all the love He gives us.  May God bless and keep you all.

Ides of March

It's been awhile since I updated but I've got a lot to share today.  First we have proof that the kids CAN play nicely together.

We finally started getting some snow at the end of February/beginning of March.  This is how Cecilia dealt with the snow and cold.

With the baby asleep, I was able to hold a camera and make it outside to take some pictures.

You may wonder what happens around here while Pat and Becca are at school.  This is about it.

Last night Mike tried something he's been talking about since we learned Cecilia was joining the family.  I'm not sure had more fun with this...the kids or Dad.

It did not last very long but he did hold on to the baby!

That's it for now.  We are heading into the busy Spring now but I will try to grab the camera and get a few shots for you to enjoy.
