March Randomness

Spring has finally arrived around here. We've traded our snow boots and shovels for rain boots and umbrellas. Though, honestly, (knock of wood) we haven't had much rain yet. We've actually had quite a few gorgeous spring days. We went for our first walk of the year in the neighborhood around the second week of March. We biked/walked to the park nearby. Too bad it was flooded from all the snow melting. But the girls still enjoyed getting out.

I also cleaned out all the dead plants from the landscape bed out front. I usually do it late in the fall, but didn't get around to it last year with my pregnant belly. It was nice to get in there again and clean it up. Lily played outside in the sandbox while Kellan lounged in his bouncy chair. I also got some of the Christmas lights off our bushes (About time, right?)





Kellan REALLY likes being outside! Even though he was in the shade, it was still bright out so it was hard to get a photo of him with his eyes open. He kept squinting.


Just a random morning photo. Click to make this bigger and take a look at Kellan's face. I laughed so hard when I saw this one! :-)


We had Bubba and Grand Pat come for a visit the third weekend in March. As always the girls enjoyed decorating cookies and hanging out with them.

And we also got to spend an afternoon with good griend Molly visiting us from Cedar Rapids at the end of the month. Unfortunately, I'm a loser and completely spaced about her visit, even though I had thought of it the day before. Our house was a total disaster and completely embarrassing. But, luckily, Molly's a good enough friend she didn't care! ;-)
