Pictures from the first full week of March

The weather has been so nice again this week and we’ve really enjoyed to sunshine and warmer air.

I am not quite sure what Nicole was doing here, but it looks like it was lots of work.

Ila and McKell had a blast playing Go Fish together (I’m not sure why Ila was dressed as an elephant):

The next day they played Go Fish outside:

Charlotte and Nicole played a game where they kept changing the direction they were facing while swinging.  They’ve been playing together almost every available minute.

Zach would probably be unhappy with this next picture, but I thought I’d share it anyway.  Thomas and his friend had a little fight over an eating area, so I solved it by letting Thomas eat on the counter while I cooked dinner.

My washer instruction book warned me that I should close the door if I have kids or pets.  I usually don’t close it so that any moisture can dry, I guess the washer people knew what they were talking about:

I love Charlotte’s silly face here:

I thought I’d share several pictures of the kids blowing bubbles partly because these pictures actually have Isaac in them.  He tends to like to play inside with Legos and with the computer games and I don’t usually take many pictures of those activities.

We’ve probably just doomed ourselves to a late snow by planing flowers, but we did.

Thomas brought all the flowers over to Charlotte and started to pile them on her lap.

He likes to peak through the railings and say “at me” meaning “look at me.”

Some jumping attempts:

On Sunday, Ila and Charlotte watered the flowers:

Thomas is a little grumpy about not being able to just walk through the flower bed anymore.

Another look at me moment.  Unfortunately, his mother forgot to wipe the chocolate milk off his face.

Thomas loves to run into my arms.  He’d run back to a certain spot on the sidewalk and wait for me to say “Mark, set, go!” then he’d take off running and laughing with his mouth wide open:
