Waiting for Spring

We are super excited that Spring is officially here! This winter was so pathetic, it was cold with no snow so it didn't actually feel like winter. We bought Isabelle a pair of snow boots and mittens for school and she didn't even use them once! We rang in the new season by taking Isabelle to the neighborhood park for her to play on the playground. I have a feeling we'll be spending most of our nights at the park for the next little while.

I wish I had some amazing news or stories to share but I don't, we've just been sticking to our daily routines. Here's what I have to share this month:

We bought Isabelle two miniature aquatic frogs last weekend. She named them Max and Ruby. Although she was overwhelmed with joy when we brought them home the curiosity and fun has already worn off . We had them in her room for a few days but eventually brought them down to the family room. Max and Ruby are very low maintenance, they came with a year's supply of food and only have to be fed twice a week - my kind of care.

Brady purchased a flag pole this winter and has had an itch to get it up since the day it was delivered. To our luck the weather has been decent so we were able to get it installed to proudly display our Country's colors. Our neighbor is a retired Marine and has a flagpole in his yard as well so Brady made sure our pole was just as tall and along with the US flag we have our Army flag flying.

Lastly, Isabelle has been very active and interested in dancing lately. It's so stinkin' cute to watch, eventually I'll be putting her in some classes.


Well, that's about it, I know nothing over the top but we do have things coming up in the next month or so that we're looking forward to: Easter, our anniversary, baseball season and last but not least - potty training!
