. trampoline .

the babies get on the trampoline every single day.  it's probably their favorite thing to do.  here are some shots from this mornings play time ...

these kids are SO MUCH FUN.  they are growing so fast and learning even faster.  our favorite thing right now is singing "God our Father" before every meal and snack and it makes my heart smile when they parents tell me that they now sing it at their dinner table b/c their sweet baby insists on it.  :) 

. march activities .

we are having even more fun now that the babies are older and can do a whole lot more.  my passion for taking care of kids comes from the reactions i get when i teach them something.  i LOVE seeing their little faces learn new things. 

i decided to start doing things for each month, such as ...
*march sensory tub ... filled with green lentils and has gold coins, along with 4 leaf clovers in it.
*march playdoh ... green with gold glitter
*one week we will do all rainbow activities
*and st. patty's day is already planned with tons of fun things.

here is something we are now doing for each month as well ...

how cute is that?!?!  i have a theme for each month, march being "spring", so you'll see these more often.  i'll get up a picture of our playdoh and sensory tub soon.  right now, we spend our days playing outside and thoroughly enjoying the weather before it gets hot!!

. thankful for the weather .

the weather has been beautiful this week and we've been in and out every single day.  they have loved it. 

they were playing with dirt and rolly-pollies.  is that what they're called?

this boy always has his tongue out!  :)

. sweet baby L .

this girl keeps me laughing.  they all do.  L walked around with these sunglasses on for a good 30 minutes that day.  of course, she has a set of keys in her hand.  that's the favorite toy around here.

. valentine fun .

so, valentine's day was not all that i wanted it to be.  my daughter got sick with the flu that day and was in quaratine while the other kiddos were here so we didn't get to do all i had planned.  {note: she got sick that day.  we didn't know she was sick and none of the other kids got it, thank goodness.}

here are some pictures to highlight our day ...

yummy cupcakes from B's mom. 

i had a bowl of little hearts and some heart shape silicone things (why can i not think of what they are called?!?!) ... anyways, they had a blast sorting the hearts and putting on in each spot. 

that day we also played with valentine blocks and conversation hearts.  we had heart shape waffles for breakfast and the cute little heart cupcakes for snack.  it so wasn't what i hoped for, but with a sick kiddo, everything changed!!!

. v is for valentine .

we spent a whole day where we talked about the letter "V" for valentine.  the kids had so much fun coloring, painting, gluing, and anything else we could find.

. we're not getting sick! .

my oldest daughter has the flu and this is how we're preventing getting it ourselves.  it'll work, right?!  i tried to get the babies to put them on their mouths, but they insisted that they were hats.  hilarious!
