Last hurrah of winter.. hopefully!

For the week of March 5-11

We hopefully experienced the last coldness of winter, spring is almost here and we can't wait! We're tired of the cold, tired of being inside, and SO tired of being sick. Bring on the warmth.

All three of the kids had diarrhea again this week, and Miles threw up a few times too. Thankfully it was short lived, only 2 days or so each. We were able to keep them all hydrated, and we've been healthy since!

 We have to bring the outside toys inside when it's cold. These boys both love tractors.

Miles threw up about three times while he was sick, it was sad. He kept saying "puke," which was nice because it at least gave me a heads up. He fell asleep in the car and when I put him in the cart at Target he stayed sleepy for a little while. It was so cute. Poor guy.

 Ruby wanted to have a romantic candle lit dinner. :)

 We made some yummy double chocolate ice cream!

 Reid really wanted a strawberry on his. It was SO good!

 We all got bundled up and played in the back yard.

 Reid got Miles dressed... in Ruby's coat! It was hilarious.

 Reading to his little brother.

 We got some more of Reid's old clothes out for Miles (2T!). He loves his Mario shirt.

 They played hot lava with the cushions and blankets.

 They found Andy's Nintendo Switch... they love to play. We really limit time on it though, of course. :)

 Miles was so excited about his dinosaur sweater!

 Saturday morning was gorgeous (and cold), so we headed out to the zoo with Becca and Frances. We had tons of fun! It was a beautiful day, and not too busy. Andy and the kids made a whole map for our route after Ruby took a survey to see which animals everyone wanted to see. She's so cute.

 There was still a little snow!

 Ruby sure loves helping with Frances.

 Reid loves watching the train.

 New library books!

 We finally made it to our Home Community! We've missed it so much this winter because of sickness. Ruby wanted to wear her red lipstick, and they all loved the wagon.

 I did a fun criss-cross french braid. I just love doing her hair.

We got a box of diapers in the mail, the boys love to help me open packages with their butter knives. Haha
