March and April went a little something like this....

Me and my princess

Early morning routine. It's nice to have them be almost self sufficient, 
but sad to see they grow up before my very eyes.

100 days of school celebration - this is a thing now! :-/


Towel wrap was very exciting for her!

We were plagued with a VERY severe stomach 
bug for an entire week before spring break. :(
3 out 4 were unlucky

Trying our her new summer suit - can you tell she loved it?



Spring Break shenanigans began at the Rodeo on Wednesday.
Boy was it a mistake to go on "free kid" day. SOOOO crowded, but the kids had fun!





 

Mom and dad are so happy to have survived the crowds. 

Next day, we were on our way to Sea World San Antonio.

Waiting for the dolphin show..


 Julian was brave and rode the tallest roller coaster there. :-o

Penguins were so cute!


Last day in San Antonio we visited Morgan's Wonderland 
and the Natural Bridge Safari drive thru (not recommended).


 Enjoying our turtles in the lake. If you look close enough, 
you can see it peeking its head out of the water.

Feeding our ducks; which, by the way, we learned
bread is not good for them. Sorry, duck friends!

Trying out our new summer dress

This was a fall outfit that still had tags. :-/

Pretty girl

Handsome boy

She loves her stuffed animals ---but, please do not gift her more!
Our house has been invaded by these things. :-o

She loves her brother.

We had two parties in one weekend.
Party #1 on Saturday

Party#2 on Sunday


 Minnie Mouse and Dragon

Looking innocent...

 
4/1 ~ He started playing flag football on this day!

Stupid snuggie tail commercial came back to haunt me
at Target with a screaming child. 
Next time I'll put my foot down (I hope)!

Sunday Breakfast at our usual spot in South Houston.

Flowers for his mommy. 
He is such a sweetie! <3 p="">

Sibling Love



    










 

Lauren's first official haircut

Lauren received her first official haircut on January 8, 2017.  I was brave enough to attempt it myself, but not skilled enough to do it right ~ what was I thinking???!!! I had to take her the next day to get it fixed professionally at Snip-its. I really thought she was going to be scared to get a haircut, but she did great! I told myself that I would have had to do it eventually, but I do regret it, because all those gorgeous curls are gone. She still looks beautiful though!


Before Haircut:


Haircut (6 inches shorter, is my guess):
 



After Haircut:
 


Curls - why did you leave us?!?!?!?!?!?!?! :(
