Poor Carter

April 03, 2012
Today Carter had surgery. It took him a little bit to come out of the anesthesia, and then for about half the day his legs didn't work. He stayed home from school for two days and then was back to normal. He was such a trooper.

Tunnels, Slides and Fun!

March 31, 2012
Will had Friday afternoon off and so we loaded up the car and drove to St Louis and stayed with our friends, the Pralls for the night. Then in the morning we went to The City Museum which was a very cool place. This place was made with things that were found around St Louis and it was I think 3 or 4 floors of all of this. There were tunnels and slides and little hidden places all over, Will and I were even able to go through the tunnels and slides. There were some places that we could not fit in and Will and I had to figure out how to get around it. On the outside of the building there was airplanes and more tunnels. There was a lot of people there during the weekend and so I think that it would really be better during the week but we still had fun.
For the next few days I had nightmares about this place, and my kids getting lost in it, but I think that is just the mother in me.

Trees and more Trees

March 28, 2012
Today was another great day of spring break, Addy had one of her best friends over and they spent most of the time up in the trees. Her friend Hayley will be moving at the end of the year and Addy was pretty upset about it so we have been having her over as much as we can.
Addy gets in a tree when ever she can, even in a skirt and no shoes. I think that Addy is part monkey!
In the afternoon we made some whoopie pies and Boston loved the sprinkles that we put on them a little too much.

Lunch at the Park

March 27, 2012
Today it was going to be another beautiful day so we decided to get out our bikes and ride to the park near by. So we packed a lunch and spent half the day there. It got up to about 80 degrees and I forgot to put sunscreen on us and we got burned a little. For crying out loud its March! I guess we will have to start putting in on now and get use to it.

Addy loves to climb trees, she will ask to climb in any tree she can find. Me and the kiddos!

We walked around a lake and I almost stepped on this baby turtle. The kids picked it up and held it for awhile and then put it bake in the water.

Time OFF

March 26, 2012
Today was the first day of the kids spring break. While Addy was at one of her friends house me and the boys went to the school play ground and played. It was such a beautiful day! The boys love to climb trees and everything they can climb.

Look at those cute brothers!Trying to take a good picture of the boys is really hard because they move so fast and don't stop for very long.
