We have a fence now. There was a big storm the day it was put in just after they finished. If you look closely, you can see hail all over the ground.

All that is left now is grass. Horray!

Last night we were at the park and Brandon went down the slide. When he got to the bottom, he saw Kathleen and mom on the grass a little ways off. He decided that he wanted to got and play over there. So, with momentum from the slide still, he took off running in that direction and totally missed the sidewalk path in between. He smacked down face first and chipped three teeth. But he is all grins about it today. He really wanted to show off his chipped teeth.

So of course, Kathleen had to have a picture too.

Brandon will have some dental work done in a month when his mouth has had time to heal.

We had concrete curbing put in at our house today. It looks pretty nice. It is funny that anything we do ourselves gets done really fast. Anything that is left to Eaglewood takes forever. Hence, no grass. But we have curbing!!



This is the machine that they used to put the curbing in. They brought cement from the truck in a wheelbarrow then shoveled it into this machine. It was pretty interesting.

We put up our Easter Decorations today. We have this one frame that we pull out every year and put a new picture in it. This year, the kids posed so nicely for the picture for our Easter frame.
We bought a kite and flew it last night. I figured it was so windy out that we couldn't do much outdoor playing. But then I decided to take advantage of the cold windy weather.

While I was making dinner last night, Brandon decided he wanted to make dinner too. He pulled out all the dishes the he thought he would need and got really into making his special dinner on the stairs. It was so cute.

I bought this new scrapbooking program. I did a page for the baby that I thought was pretty cute. I guess. Well, you can decide. But the program is great. It makes scrapbooking a breeze.

Kathleen and Ryan took a nap together this afternoon and I couldn't resist taking their picture. They are so cute.
We were already to go go church today, but we had some time to kill. So the kids climbed on daddy's lap to play the piano. They can never be too close to dad when playing.

Last night we had our annual green dinner to celebrate St. Patricks Day. Brecklyn, Kathleen, and Alayna sure had fun playing.
Besides me, Amber Reese was the other chef for the evening. Even after everyone was sitting down to eat, she was still cooking away.
The girls thought it would be fun to have a picnic on the ground. Here is Emily Nielson, Kathleen, and Brecklyn and Alayna Reese.
The Nielson's moved away last May, but thanks to a job interview they got to come back for the annual green dinner we always do together. I think Ryan and I are going to lose friends because we have made the Reese's and Nielson's eat green food once a year for the past four years.
Just to give you an example of the nastiness of it, here is the corned beef I made for the dinner. Yes, I died the outside green just to make it even more discusting than it already is. Kindly, everyone ate at least a little.

Brandon was so cute at breakfast this morning. He would eat some cereal and put the spoon in his mouth, then he would drink some juice while the spoon was still in his mouth. I guess he didn't want to waste a moment.
Kathleen, of course, couldn't handle a picture being taken of Brandon and not of her. So she posed for her spolight. She gets really into her poses for pictures.

Guess what! We finally have sprinklers and shrubs at our house. A little grass, and we're good to go. Oh, and a fence. But we can't expect our builder to be that competant all at once. Oh, and one tree. Woohoo!

My mom sent me some pictures she took while we were in Spokane. Here is one of Brandon taking a nap with Grandpa.
Kathleen's best friend in the whole world is her aunt Kaylee. This is them at a playland in Burger King (which we will never go back to).
Brandon had a lot of fun there though. Needless to say, no one really enjoyed thier food. Thank goodness for the playground.

Here are the ultrasound pictures I promised. None are between the legs, if you can tell. So we don't know what we are having. That's right. I had enough self control to not find out. I am so excited.

I thought Ryan was looking particularly handsome today, so I had to take a picture of him. Isn't he cute?
I decided to dye my hair. It is one of those I-feel-ugly moments I always have when I am pregnant. But it was way red. So I think I will do it again later.
Kathleen got a new swim suit. She was so excited. It came with a robe too. She asks to wear it all the time, but it isn't quite warm enough yet, so we just let her wear the robe.For those of you not familiar with your Disney movies, it is Princess Aurora from Sleeping Beauty.
