Long overdue

Another month snuck right past me! Well anyway....

Of course the big news of March is always the rodeo -- which may be Will's favorite time of the year. I really think he is more excited for the arrival of the rodeo than he is Christmas...so there was a plethora of picture taking, but we will try and limit the craziness here. :)

One of the best parts of going to the rodeo with little ones is watching the mutton busting. Nothing like watching little kids attempt to ride sheep...and always falling off. Will is so excited to do it himself, but you have to be 5. Here he is trying to pick up some tips...



Just a little bonding time with a few of his friends...



Gotta check out the tractor! He looks like such a natural climbing up there. :)



Pony rides! He was SO happy -- we had a few people comment to us how natural he looked. Where the heck are we going to put a horse??:)



My guys. Enough said. :)



During spring break we had double excited -- it was the rodeo, but it was also AJ time! My sister came down to spend the week with us and Will was SO happy to have her here. I think she had to go home to get some rest from her vacation, but we did love our AJ time.

Hanging out at the park...



What is this stuff? And why did mom sit me in it??



I love this one because of Will's expression -- it showcases just how much he adores his baby sister. And how the world may want to look out for her. :)



Hey there bright eyes! Our big 9 month old sweet girl!



This past weekend I had to go to Dallas with a group of students from school, so we decided to make it a little mini-vacay for all of us. While we were there we took Will to the Lego Discovery Center since that is the new obsession around here. Uncle Eric met us there and we had a morning of crazy Lego fun!

Poor B and the curse of the 2nd child. She was sooooo tired, but was a trooper while Will had his Lego day. Here's an attempt at a pic of the two of them.



Yeah, this is great...



But I'm having a GREAT time!



Our other big adventure in Dallas was the Dallas World Aquarium. It was such a cool place! I'm really not sure which Will loved more...Legos? The rainforest? Jeez, tough call.

A huge bonus at the Aquarium was the bird feeding. They give you a blueberry to hold in your hand and the birds just come and snack right out of your hand. Of course we had to check that out a few times...



Matching a flamingo? Doesn't get much better.



So there it is, another month gone by!
