We didn't really do much for St. Patrick's Day, but it doesn't take much to make little kids happy....well, most of them. I don't know if any of you remember the post from Valentine's Day. Well, a very similar event happened on the morning of St. Patrick's Day. Derek woke up very grumpy and didn't appreciate his green breakfast. 
And once again, Taylor totally loved it. I'm noticing a pattern.
Who knew that putting a few drops of green food coloring into milk would make me "so cool" in the eyes of a 3 year old. He requested "green milk" the rest of the day.
Later in the evening I made this lemon cake with green frosting. It's the best I could do with what I had on hand.
Here's a picture of Derek 12 hours after breakfast. He snapped out of his mood very nicely. Cake will do that for anyone!
Taylor wore a green shirt with a green dinosaur on it. I told him that I couldn't pinch him because he was wearing green. So that night when it was time to change into jammies he said, with a bit of panic, "but you will pinch me".

those pictures are hilarious! Brilliant idea- using the marshmallows to make a clover. Wow... you're so smart.
You are such a fun Mom!!!! We didn't do anything special until dinner time besides wearing green. And dinner wasn't that much fun for Juliana it was my favorite, corned beef cabbage and mashed potatoes. But for family home evening we did play a St. Patty's day bingo. And then had vanilla pudding dyed green. But man you are so great even with a new born!!
