A new season called "Winterspring"

It's my new word for the weather in good ol' MO! We had 30 degrees, snow, sleet, and freezing rain on Monday. And today...the house is open, sunny skies, and 68 degrees! Ya gotta love global warming!

St. Pat's Parade
















Yesterday I took the kids to the Cottleville St. Pat's Day Parade. Jack loves all the clowns, trucks and of course the candy! He told me after the parade that the monster truck was his favorite! We were joined by our friends the Nolan's.

Science Center











Last week we met up with the Knese girls for a trip to the St. Louis Science Center. This was Jack's first trip and he absolutley loved it!! Didn't hurt that he was surrounded by girls all day!!
So thanks Susanne, Chloe, and Isabella!!

So much to catch up on...
























































Slap my hand. I've been bad at the whole blog thing. You'd think that not working would give me more time, ha ha. So here we go with the update. We've been bouncing, tumbling, crawling, bowling, and drinking! Okay the last one was just me. We were lucky again to have the Almodovar's visit us again last month. We had a chance to get JUGS together and also take the kids to Pump it Up.

Jack started tumbling class and is loving it. He gets to jump around and use up all the winter energy he has!
Megan is full on crawling. She is very aware if you leave the room and will roll on over and follow you. She sort of combat crawls but is woring on getting her junk up!
We also took Jack bowling for the first time with my sister and her family. Jack had a blast and couldn't decide which was better. Steak n' shake before bowling or bowling itself.
Pictures are hodge-podge together so enjoy.

Yes I still blog...

and yes I've been slacking. We've had a full schedule lately and I've been distant from the blog, e-mail, etc. We recovered from the snow and some of us are dreaming of white sandy beaches and foo-foo drinks that magically appear when your glass is almost empty! (ie ME, I NEED a vacation!!)
I've taken a ton of pics from the last month but haven't had the time to load them yet. We've played in the snow, been swimming at the rec center, bowling for the first time, and oh yeah Megan has started to crawl!!!!(somewhat) She's combat, gorilla style crawling, but still it's crawling!! And she is starting to cut another tooth, making it 3 total. I promise to get pics loaded and post them soon.
Looking forward to the next few weeks..."Mommy's weekend away", Katie's shower, and good friends the Almodovar's visiting.
Hapy Monday all, 4 more days!!!

Snow day

Well I think we topped out at +/- 10 inches. Poor Henry can barley make it to do his business. I opted for a snow day, which turned out to be a good thing. The subdivision just now is starting to clear. I'll attempt to post pics later, still working out the kinks with the new computer and camera.
