Can't pinch us!

Happy St. Patty's Day!
We made my go to dinner which also has another title "dad's-operating-until-10 o'clock-at-night-and-mom's-too-lazy-to-think-of-something-else dinner", waffles! But for the March 17 occasion we had to make them green! It's the trick to making anything Irish, add green food coloring!
Connor has bronchitis. Really sick, can't you tell? He is great except mornings where he can't breathe + the whole day has the raspy voice and gunk in his lungs...he should be back to school in a couple days, meanwhile, his game controller fingers + ability to play outside work just fine!
Brody is loving puzzles. Does the same three over and over, can hardly break him away and forget about turning around to smile for a quick shot...
but if he does , this is the face I get...
{excuuuuse me!}
Today was beautiful...56 degrees! I'll take it!
The white stuff is GONE (knock on you-know-what) and I really couldn't be happier to finally see my dead yellow grass!
So you guessed it our zip line got a big refresher course on what it is to be actually used...
Last couple of weeks I've been getting ready for baby.
Making {lots} of fluffy blankets:
had to have one of these:
I ordered a 16x24 canvas of our family before it's outdated and missing a member of our family {in 6 weeks!}. I have looked around to do a canvas print and couldn't be happier with this company, looks even better in person - I thought they did a great job!
3" photo magnets for just $3 each. I'm thinking Mother's Day gifts for grandmas? Got them here.

How cute. Now were you wearing green too? I couldn't find any green in my closet. I can't believe that you are having your baby in 6 weeks. By the way I love the blankets and the onesie you are very crafty.
