spring storms are our jam–the kids love dancing in the rain
 and the way her hair curls when it’s wet is one of my favorite things!

pregnancy inspires creativity—
I introduce the s’more bagel.
toast a bagel, add chocolate chips and marshmallows, and broil until your preferred toastiness (the more burnt, the better!)

speaking of delicious treats–cadburry mini eggs!
Why did I not realize how good these were until now? Craving these so much!!

This little girl loves to mimic everything her big brothers do. Sometimes that’s a bad thing and sometimes it’s awesome! #starwars

This is what happens when the garage door owner catches you taking pictures…you get a free family photo!
(by the way–can you tell who was being a little stubborn about our photoshoot?)

thankfully, it looks like they’re already on their way to having more artistic talent than their mom!

April days


In the past couple of weeks, we’ve made several trips to visit grandparents and great-grandparents. I didn’t pull out the DSLR for those trips but I did take some on my phone so I’m just throwing them all together here.

of course I have a child who loves dogs as much as I dislike them

Evangeline and Brownie go way back. A little over a year ago, I posted a picture of these two together. When Evangeline disappeared at my Grandma’s house last week, I found her petting the chicken and saying “it’s nice!”

Ignore the major photography fail with the rope in front of his face. I still love this picture!

 For the past several years, I have given my two older boys the option to either wear a hat or let me fix their hair when we’re leaving the house. They pick a hat every single time. 
**I don’t give them that option until they are old enough to realize that if they pick a hat, they can’t take it off while we’re out! (mean mom?)

sometimes it comes down to asking my 6 year old to quickly snap a picture to make sure I keep documenting this pregnancy.

In other news, our new mattress (and pillow) arrived today!! In Liam’s words “This is the comfiest pillow in the world. This is the comfiest bed in the world. You guys have the comfiest combination ever!” 
Total happiness in this house tonight–especially since I’m finally down to the last 10ish weeks of pregnancy!!!
