March 12 = First Without Daddy Day

I only have one picture from today:

Zachary left yesterday for a trip with the Midshipmen Action Group to Biscayne Bay in Florida.  They drove to Smithfield, NC last night and are heading down to South Florida today.  He'll be gone until next Sunday so as I told the ladies at the kids' club at our gym, if you see the kids are wearing the same things two days in a row, don't judge me.  If you see me wearing the same thing two days in a row, don't judge me.

March 11 = Playground Day

I can't get enough of this weather!  We headed out to a different playground today.  I had gone to the gym and Malia didn't have her shoes but I figured she'd be okay. She hates shoes anyway.

Malia was clearly worn out:

March 9 = Go For a Walk Day

Here's a quick picture of my babies eating at their table in the playroom.  They had waffles and strawberries and both ate every bit that was on their plates.

Later we met two friends and their sons at a playground.  Both ladies have boys and are expecting boys in one month and three months.  We got there first so the kids played on the playground until our friends got there, then we went for a walk and then played on the playground some more before eating a picnic lunch.  On the way home, Malia and I dropped Liam off at his group session and the elementary school across the street.  We got home and I did a little cleaning and then decided it was too nice outside to be inside so instead of driving to pick him up, I drug out the jogging stroller and we walked about a mile to the school.  Liam got so excited when he saw the stroller instead of the car!  It was a great day with lots of fresh air and exercise!

March 8 = Playground Day

It was finally, finally, a nice day out so after picking Liam up from the CDC, we went to the playground.

Also, here's a picture of Malia putting on my shoes:

March 7 = Spaghetti Day

First I have this precious picture of my two little loves, sitting together on the couch.  I love Liam's smile and Malia's toes.

Also, you know me and my Facebook memes.  I saw this and laughed because I'm pretty sure this has happened in our house.  Maybe multiple times.  Not since I went to Charleston in November and tried moonshine for the first and last time because ever since I've wanted nothing to do with alcohol.  But still.

And we had spaghetti for dinner.  While it's not my favorite meal, it is my kids' favorite so we have it quite often.

March 6 = No Pictures Day

I have no pictures from today and since I'm writing about March 6th on March 21st I also have no memories of today.  But I did take a screenshot of this Facebook meme and sent it to Zachary and will now share it with you.

March 5B = A weekend with Grandma and Dops

Well, Grandma and Dops, aka Mom and Dad, had a wonderful visit this weekend from Zachary, Liam and Malia.  The only downside was that Melissa wasn't here.  We missed having her here, too!  But, Zachary had an event to come down for with the Academy, and Melissa was going to enjoy some much needed down time.  So, I apologize for all of the pictures that I'm going to post, but I just can't resist sharing these two cuties!  We do love Liam and Malia so much and just love any time we get to spend with them.  So, here I go.

So, Zachary and Dad went to the cycling event early Saturday morning.  That left me to have my time with my two little ones.  We spent some time playing inside until it warmed up enough to go out.  Since Easter is coming soon, I thought we would find some eggs.  Malia was quick to find some.

Liam followed suit and had a grand time opening all of the eggs.

Liam also found a "beam" to "balance" on.  He did a great job keeping his balance.  I was so impressed!

That smile is just too cute!

Here was some time with Dops!

Malia discovered the rocking horse.

And, a new place to rest.

I do believe they love each other.

Something was pretty funny!

Must have been a basketball game on that TV!

Malia - relaxing and reading a book.

Can't forget good ol' Dad! So good to have Zachary home.

And, just some more snuggle time.  I'll take all I can get!

Thank you, Zachary and Melissa, for sharing your beautiful son and daughter with us.  They have captured our hearts and we just love them so much!  Come again, soon!
