St. Patty's Day

The kids picked clover from the front yard for their teachers. The trampled most of the clovers but there were still a few left to make bouquets.
Poppy dressed herself today. Do you like her outfit? She wore her shoes like that all day long. I wonder if it felt wierd?
Willow with her scuba diver that decorated her seat in her classroom for Open House. She is doing well in school and brought home almost all O's.

Lily is doing well and gaining weight. Hopefully we can get her to sleep better at night in the next month or two. New babies are cute, BUT they sure are a ton of work.

Your kids look so festive! Glad Lily is doing well. I also did babywise with Logan...however, I was so anal about his routine that we couldn't even leave the house after 7 pm or he would have a major fit! I relaxed a little with number 2, but still followed the guidelines. I think it works well...However.....If someone tells you that their baby sleeps all night every night...they are lieing. I figure we won't sleep all night again until all the kids are out of the house!!!

Hi! We found you from Adam & Melissa's blog. Cute kids! Congrats on #4. You are a braver woman than I. Hope she learns to sleep more soon. I feel the same as you - those newborns sure are cute, but I've never looked back on those days & wished I could relive them. Maybe it's because I can't even remember most of that time because I was so sleep deprived! Fun to catch up with you a little!

Oh my goodness, I am dying laughing right now... Poppy's outfit is so great! Do you remember your American flag tights? So much fun! She is definitly your child!

Great outfit!

I have always loved the little baby stage, I seem to have more patience in those early months. The babywise thing is just a guide, make it fit your lifestyle and hopefully you will love it. I would say that sleeping babies and kids is 80% then you have that wierd 20% of the time that they do crazy things like teething or colds etc...But I do enjoy having Scarlett sleep 11 to 12 hours a night since she was one....most nights!

Your kids must have felt like the coolest kids in school, bringing clover for their teachers. Poppy's shoes are great! Did Willow decide to make herself a scuba diver are is that what all the kids were? Either way, very cute. Have fun with your four.

Melissa?? Erin's friend from Norco Melissa? Cute family, great blog. And congrats on a new baby!

Loved the outfit! My daughter who is almost 9 has just recently insisted that she can do her own hair. I need to just be okay with it, but everyday I tell her to make sure her teacher knows that she did it herself. Too funny!

I am glad you knew what to do with the shamrock patch. Take a bunch to school on March 17th just like you did when you were little. I must have taught you something important.
