Ready for Spring

The kids helped plant some flowers, green onion and cilantro a bit ago and have been loving watching them grow.  We all can't wait until it's warm enough to plant them outdoors!  The kids all helped color all the sea creatures (and Ariel) in the window behind Layla.  Their little aquarium helps add a little life to our dining room :-).  They were pretty proud of it :-).

A few weeks ago, Layla made a butterfly out of a an egg carton in school so they all wanted to make more at home and then try to "catch" them in their new nets :-).

Such a hard life for Greta not getting to go outside as much as her big bro and sis.  I don't quite trust her outside by herself yet.  At least she normally doesn't mind being inside with me (after she gets over the initial time of seeing them go out and not letting her go out with them).

Who knows what they are doing here.  Probably pretending to dig or something.  They love to be outside riding their gator around on "adventures", driving bikes and scooters on their side walk chalk roads or walking in our wetlands (which now looks like a small pond) in their boots.
