My baby is 1
Our sweet little Adaleigh turned 1 on March 4. It makes me so sad that my baby is getting so big. It is helpful that she is still so little and snugly. Adaleigh has the sweetest personality. She is almost always smiling showing off her mouthful of big white teeth. She loves to play right along side her brothers and sisters. She is one spoiled little girl that is loved on constantly.

Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss
Mia came home last week and said, "Mom I think I may have gotten you too much work." I didn't understand what she meant then she explained that she had promised two of her friends that I would make them all shirts for Dr. Seuss character dress up day. (She is only taking after me as I volunteered my mom to do everything.) They had decided they wanted to be Thing 1, Thing 2, and Thing 3. Unfortunately Thing 3 was sick today and not able to come to school. There were lots of "Things" at school today, but these two were the cutest!! Mia definitely had the best hair. It was as crazy as we could make it!! It was worth the thirty minutes it took to get all the blue and tangles out.

Piper goes Potty
I have written so many post about Piper, but they are not usually very positive. I just need to take the moment to brag on her. Cy and Piper will be three next month and are long over due for being potty trained. Honestly I just have not had it in me to even try. Piper has been begging me for some time now to let her wear panties. I would let her wear them around the house but would make her put a diaper on when we would go somewhere. We spend so many hours in the car each day that I did not want to deal with her having to go to the bathroom. Well last week I finally decided I should probably just let her wear the panties and attempt potty training. To my great surprise she has been perfect!! Not one accident. I don't even have to take her. If she needs to go, she just goes. I still put her in a diaper at night but other than that she is in panties. Sometimes she has to go when we are in the car but she can hold it everytime until we get home. I guess she was ready and for that I am thankful!

Snow, snow, and more snow
We have had the best time with all the snow we got. I will post pictures later.
The first day the kids built snowmen. They were going to build one for each person in our family. They did not finish that day but wanted to finish the next. Well, all the ice came over night and it was not good snow to build anything. No big deal, they were satisfied with what they had. Well, on the third day I look out my window and see two little boys in our yard destroying the kids snowmen. I was a little surprised to see them in the yard and then more surprised to see them knocking over the snowmen. The biggest shock was when I realized their mom was standing in the street watching them. I do not know these little boys or their mom. When the kids came down and saw their snowmen destroyed, they were very upset. Landon was upset at first but when I told him they were probably around five years old he was fine with it. He said, "well that explains it!" Mia on the other hand will probably never forget it. She wanted a full description of what they looked like. She was upset with me because I didn't open the door and explain to them how hard they had worked. She wanted to go to their house and challenge them to a snowball fight... our family against their family. She said they wouldn't have a chance. Or better yet, Logan could just wrestle them. I understand kids do crazy things sometimes. Mine have done their fair share, but I guarantee you they wouldn't get away with it if I was watching. Mia plopped herself in a chair in front of the window just hoping they would come back because she wanted to give them a piece of her mind. I tried to explain to her that it was okay and was best to just try not to let it upset her so much. The damage was done and their was nothing we could do at that point. She finally went and played, but every once in awhile would say, "We worked so hard on those snowmen. I can't believe they would do that." I know it doesn't seem like much but she had spent hours outside working on them to make them perfect and was so sad to see them destroyed in a matter of minutes. Plus she is female and we tend to overreact sometimes, just sometimes!! The hard lessons of life we have to learn!!
