March

I finally got my camera out to document how cute it is when Brooklyn sees Payton getting home from school :)
 
Sweet that she gets so excited to see him.
 
For FHE one night we made shadow profiles where I taped up the poster, had them stand a couple feet away from the door, and shined the spotlight we have on the ceiling, so that I could trace their shadow. Then we wrote characteristics about each one, like: smart, nice serves others, good at basketball, etc.
And then at the bottom they wrote decisions that they've made in advance, like: go to college, serve a mission, get married in the Temple, don't drink/smoke, etc. 
They really liked it and have them in their rooms. CJ will still think of something and say, "Mom, we need to go write that on my poster!!" Hope it helps them in their life know who they are and resist temptation. 
 
Brooklyn LOVES "cooter rides" and she totally freaks out if someone else is riding on it, ha ha.

Stuck a fruit face to PB on a round pita bread.
Made a green(!) German pancake for St. Patrick's Day.
And had a green (!) bath!!

Loving holding Coco Bunny that Daddy brought home one day. I tried to be mad that he brought home another unexpected pet, but she's soooo soft that I couldn't be mad for long. Almost everyday we'll launch a search/chase party to be able to hold her for a few minutes till she wriggles away. We even lost her for like a week (she escaped from a spot in our newly built gate) but she came back!! We were all so excited!
 
Oh man, this totally cracked me up. She's definitely seen her brothers go potty one too many times.
I had to run grab my camera when I saw Brooklyn go into the bathroom saying "go potty" and lifted up the seat, stood in front of it with her shorts falling down. She lifted up her shirt and was trying to grab onto her belly button. She's like, I know they grab onto something... ha ha ha! They've got to start shutting the door!
 
Celebrated my Dad and Grandpa Beazer's birthdays in March with dinner and then the Beazers over for dessert.
 
Lots more to come from March!

Valentine's and President's Day
