Spring Break 2014

We headed to Cincinnati for Spring Break to spend some time with Grandma and Papa and the Nichols family.  We went to see Cinderella.

 We bought some yummy treats at Supreme Nut & Candy.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!  

The kids loved playing at Run, Jump & Play.  

The story of Sage's life!

We saw Hailey do flips at gymnastics with her friend Ella.

The kids went to James' art show, Uncle Jim's school for a play, and Papa's school for a visit.

The kiddos spent the night with Aunt Bec for a night.  

Sadly, our spring break ended with a lovely GI bug and lots of laundry!

My "little" BIG BOY!!

Well, I learned that if you put off potty training long enough that they will just wake up one day and not want to wear diapers.  I put Sage in undies one Sunday and he had an accident 30 minutes later.  The following Tuesday, Sage asked Dominique to wear underwear so she went with it, and we haven't looked back.  He has done amazing since then.  What a treat for a Mom of three who has been buying diapers for EIGHT years!!!  

Last month, early one morning Sage was calling for me and then the next thing I know Sage is in our room.  He had climbed out of his crib!  I guess he was finally fed up with being in a crib after 3.5 years.  Both of the girls were "forced" out of the crib by age of 2, so I figured we'd let him go as long as he was content.  So, another big step for Sage was transitioning his bed into a toddler bed.  

I am so proud of this little guy!

Future Flowergirls!

My cousin Johnny and his fiance Audra are getting married in June.  

Hailey, Emma and Kate were asked to be in the wedding!

Last week we met them for lunch and a trip to David's Bridal to look for dresses.

 This will be Kate's first wedding as she was 3 months at the last wedding she went to.  I am so excited for them!

The dress that Kate is wearing is the winner!

After the dress shopping we went shopping and when my Mom and I came up the escalator, this is what we saw.  They are too funny!

Spring Fever!!

We had a beautiful snow last weekend on March 1.  It was great packing snow - perfect for making a snowman!  Fortunately, John and I didn't suffer any injuries lifting the second "belly" on the snowman  - man, that snow was heavy!  

 Snow cute!

And today it was 52 degrees - a heat wave!  We thought the snowman needed a little face lift (literally) and a new look!  Spring cant come soon enough!
