World's best DAD! He had to fly the kite the most--and do all the running to get it in the air!
I thought my jacket would mask my rapidly expanding waistline better than this! (18 1/2 weeks but whose counting?)
Britt is such a good girl for letting me get at least 1 picture for the scrapbook before she ditched us for the monkey bars!
Notice the level of the string...not a successful flight!
Tonight for FHE we took the kids to the park to fly kites. We were all very excited as we loaded everyone in the car... and then it was the same story as last year. They were all excited to go fly kites until they got to the park. Once the kite was in the air the kids quickly disappear to play at the playground. Then Scott and I feel very manipulated as we stand there flying the kite and we realize Britt & Nate used "kite flying" to trick us into going to the park!! Kid's are not dumb. They realize quickly that swings and slides are much more action packed than holding onto some string. SO, the pictures I got of the kids "flying" the kite lasted approximately 30 seconds each! But at least I had something to post on my blog. The real fun was Dad kept them playing at the park for another 45 minutes. Britt now is an expert at the monkey bars. She wants us to buy some for our backyard so she can practice. I bet she can't wait until Spring Break is over so she can show her Kindergarten "Peeps" her new found skills.

You need to blame the expanding waistline on the wind blowing through your jacket, making it appear you look pregnant! BTW...you look great! How's YW going?
The sunshine looks wonderful. We still have 6 inches of snow in the back yard and it was snowing again this afternoon. Dad took Phoebe out for a walk again today. They are both getting used to this leash business. Both of them came back with red noses and wrapped up in that 25 feet of retractable leash. Kiss everyone for Grandma.
