March comes in like a Lion...

...and hopefully out like a lamb!  The weather has been beautiful!  Our lives have been CRAZY!  I'm hoping that the month going out like a lamb refers more to our state of mind and everything going on around us!  So much has been happening lately - birthday parties, family visits, putting a "for sale" sign in our front yard, birthday parties, the "thundering three's" in full swing, did I mention birthday parties??

Madelyn's third birthday was last Tuesday, it was a great day for her.  I took cupcakes to her school and her friends sang Happy Birthday to her.  I fought the tears hard seeing her sweet little face and innocent little smile as they all sang.  We enjoyed her favorite chicken nuggets for dinner and she had her very own birthday cake.  And then this past weekend we had all of our little friends together to celebrate Madelyn AND Emily's birthdays together at Romp N Roll.  We have a friends birthday this weekend, then a family celebration for the girls in a few weeks, and Emily's birthday in a month!  I've had my share of birthday cake for sure!

We've also decided to put our house on the market - something we've been going back and forth on for a few years now and we finally decided to step out of our little comfort zone and just DO IT!  We've outgrown this house, it's been great for us, but we're ready for a bit more space.  We built this house and added many of our own touches to make it OUR home...we had our girls here, raised our girls here their first few years...it's sad, but we're ready.  Now, we're not expecting anything to happen right away - it may not even sell.  So, we'll just wait and see - we have a few years before Madelyn will start kindergarten so we could stay put a little longer if we have to.  PS - here's a link to our listing:

Emily is 11 months old now, so hard to believe.  She's finally pulling herself up to standing if holding on to something, but hasn't really made any attempt to walk yet.  We'll be starting a Romp N Roll class next week, just the two of us.  I'm so excited about it!  She's so fun right now, loves music and clapping, she's starting to love on her babies and she loves to put things in and out of containers. 

I've taken lots of pictures the past several weeks, I think I'll put them in a different post so this one isn't too long....bye for now.
