Machine Washable

I decided to start washing up all of the winter coats, hats, mittens, and snow pants today in the hopes that I can put them away one day soon. One of Lauren's hats had pom-poms on the sides (notice the past tense??) It said that it was completely machine washable...I think that they were wrong...

It must have looked like I was having a great time picking all of the pom-pom pieces off the clothes because the kids wanted to help with the rest of the load...it took us a good half hour to get all of the hats and mittens cleaned up!

What a day!

The Mystery Lady

As you know, Lauren loves to dress up! She thinks it is funny to come out in Todd's sweatshirts or t-shirts, pants, and tennis shoes. Today she surprised me looking like this...

I needed a good laugh today!

Spring Picnic

I just cannot tell you how much I love the warmer weather and sunshine! I know, I know, than why do we live in Michigan?? I still ask myself that sometimes! Lauren, Andrew and I enjoyed a nice morning outside, followed by a picnic lunch (of PB & J and Cheetos! - Mmmm...healthy :) The kids finished their meal with a homemade chocolate sucker. Very healthy! Very yummy!

Smile!

Yum...chocolate!

Swinging!

Lauren was playing Peek-A-Boo with Andrew around the tree.
What a great big sister!
