Bounce houses, baby blankies + mishaps

To keep from bouncing off the walls in our winter cave of an atmosphere around here, the kids and I can't beat a good time at Bounce-it-out. It's brand new place here with 8 gigantic (2-story) sized slides, mazes. ropes and more. So glad we found this, I'm already getting so ready for Spring + to hear today he saw his shadow...UGH! Not much of a surprise....this winter's been rough!

Brody hated it at first, but then couldn't get enough and after 3 and a half HOURS of bouncing and sliding was so sad to leave and cried all the way home. 
Baby quilt I've been working on...orange, green, cream + brown. Inspired by the free Amy Butler Brick Path pattern.  The backing is soft cream minky.
This picture needs no introduction. My feeling is he'll never attempt the potty seat necklace ever again.
*Don't worry, we got it off!

That picture of Brody is adorable - please remember it when putting together photos for his wedding reception. I don't comment often, but it's so great to see how you guys are doing. Miss you!

Anything that can entertain a child for more than 10 minutes is a great find, but 3 1/2 hours?! That's amazing! That picture of Brody had me laughing so hard. What a great story that will make.

PS... what happened to pics of your belly? Haven't seen any recently... tsk tsk.
