"If you are still in the process of raising children, be aware that the tiny fingerprints that show up on almost every newly cleaned surface, the toys scattered about the house, the piles and piles of laundry to be tackled will disappear all too soon and that you will—to your surprise—miss them profoundly." - Pres. Thomas Monson

Spring Break (read: Spring Laziness)

We had a great Spring Break. We didn't go anywhere since we had a little trip planned a few weeks later (watch for later post), so we just chilled at home. It was nice, but it gave me a little taste of what Summer will bring. I'm a little scared. I'll be honest, I enjoy the quiet 6 hours around here while the boys are gone. I'm sure I'll adjust to the new way of life come May.


The kids thought it would be fun to have a slumber party one night. Well, that "one night" turned into 7 nights. They loved it and I was happy that they included McKenna. I sure hope they always get along so well.

We spent some days outside, until the weather turned cold. The kids rode their scooters, bikes, trikes, and played with friends.
I had to take this picture to demonstrate how most of my pictures are taken....with my "Velcro baby" on one hip. It makes for some very out-of-focus pictures. But he's so cute!




Taylor and I spent an afternoon putting together all his puzzles. It was a lot of fun and boosted my puzzle-building self esteem. (Yes, I realize they were all 100 pieces or less...let me pretend I can do puzzles...okay.)



And yes, there was A LOT of "Mom, I'm bored!". Here's a great example of that:

Spring Break was a killer around here, too. I keep telling myself that summer will be warmer and full of other things to do, but who am I kidding? "I'm bored" is heard around here way too much, too. Glad you survived.
