While you were out

Here is a hodge podge of pictures from March. I have not had the time to post them. There are more on the camera that I need to upload. Now that Arya doesn't just sleep all the time, there seems to be NO time to do anything but manage 3 kids, wash the cloth diapers, and take care of the essentials around the house.

A stop at Krispy Kreme donuts. We visited there frequently after Tuesday morning skating.

A kiss from Aunt Dutchie.

Which one? I will take all of them. Rather I will just eat the chocolate frosting off each and maybe a small bite.

Going through the car wash. Vance was not a fan.

Jungle Playland. To me, it is like a McDonald's playland on crack. Adults can play there too. The kids love it and it is great exercise and fun.

It even has a ball pit like the old Chuck E. Cheese restaurants.

Arya

Couch Photo Shoot

At five weeks, Arya produced some of the best photos that I have taken of her. I posted these cause they have her little tongue sticking out.


How Vance loves "baby Ar"! He's so proud of her.

Arya waved hi to all of her friends and family.

Photo Contest

I entered the following in photos in a photo contest for a local nursery.

Arya is 1 month old!

Vance took this.
Zoie took this one of us.

A sleeping princess.

Valentines Day

Zoie had her first birthday slumber party on Valentines Day. So Vance had us to himself. Here, the happy boy makes green playdough pasta.

Preschool Art

I am getting better about dropping Zoie off for school on time (12:30pm) and picking her up (3:30pm). But her love for arts and crafts makes it interesting to get her, carry the baby's car seat & the art projects and direct Vance from the school to the car.
Pop up cards
My favorite -- a ginger bread person

This letter was in the envelope below.

I love the stamp!

Her ferris wheel, water slide and family picture. Below the Z is Tata getting her some cotton candy. Quite the imagination.

Our 2nd bowling adventure

My friend and I took our 5 kids bowling this week. Ages 0,1,2,3,4. Arya slept the whole time. Karson, 1, left with grandparents. So it left us with 3 kids. Despite having a difficult time getting out of the house (Vance refuses to go and taking off his shoes and coat and Arya spitting up when I put her in the car seat), we had a good time. I didn't take too many pixs. Maybe next time.

Our baby "Ar"

Sun = Play @ the park

Finally the sun has peaked out and the temperatures have rose above freezing. Today we went to the park after skating and on the way to take Zoie to school. The kids loved it! Vance and I also went yesterday, but no camera. His face lit up as he ran around,climbed up, slide down, and enjoyed the outdoors.

Skating -- Again!

After Bath time

All 3 kids have fuzzy hair after bath time. I tried to capture that here. The first picture is after the first bath. It only took 1 1/2 weeks and 2 kids in bed for me to find time to wash her up. It's not like tiny babies get dirty beyond poop and spit up.
