Too bad March is over

This month is the best!

Here is sweet, sweet Claire in the hiking backpack a couple of weeks ago.

Seeing the old Railroad tunnels

but of course the boys love climbing the best!

Blair has been hiking every chance he gets with his buddies.

...and sometimes he's up to no good.

Funny Will

"I will not eat green eggs and ham."
Will was NOT excited about his St. Patrick's Day food.

but he was happy about some goggles he found, and fell asleep in the car with them.

Birthdays
Blair and I both have birthdays in March, so we celebrate it up! We usually gain some weight with all the eating out to get our birthday freebies for a week straight, and we make sure to have a lot of fun. For Blair's birthday I got us "O" tickets, and it was great!!! Our houseseats membership was expiring at the end of March too, so we had to get in a bunch of free shows. Blair took the boys each to a different show (Matsuri & Recycled Percussion), and then we went to the comedian Louie Anderson, who was hilarious! My face hurt the next day because I was laughing so hard. Besides all of that, our birthdays were extra special because of good friends that remembered them and took us out. Thank you wonderful friends!

On my birthday we went to Benihana for the 1st time.

It was fun!

These were the decorations that the boys did for my birthday (2 pieces of crepe paper taped to the wall)

Here we were on our date to go see Cirque de Soleil "O" at the Bellagio.

We enjoyed the fountains and a treat beforehand.

The ceiling of the theatre.

Last weekend we went to the Monster Truck ralley with the whole family.

This girl got 4 teeth on the top this month! She already had 2 on the bottom.

We've always wanted to go to one, so now we have!

The funnies

Will 12/14 " Mom can you please pour the milk for me because it’s almost full, and there’s a 65% chance that I’ll spill it."

11/14 Me: Why did you dump out all the toys?

Claire: Because I was trying to find something to play with

Me: What did you find?

Claire: The glow in the dark dinosaur

Me: Then why didn’t you put the other toys back?

Claire: Because I had to use the bathroom, so I just runned.

Claire 11/14 "Mom I can’t find any of my jammies, so should I bring you the sew kit so you can sew me some?"

Claire 11/14 "What do these constructions say?"

11/14 Claire: Mom Can I have this?

Me: Sure

Claire: Yes!!! Mom, thanks for asking me!

Claire 11/14 "Oh my Geez"

Claire 11/14 "I had a great dream last night. I got to see Dixie, and eat shrimp!"

Claire 11/14 "Our scarecrow fell over, but we’ll still be able to find our house because you know the numbers!"

Will 11/14 "The only good thing that happened to me today, was that Kord gave me a penny. But then I lost it."

Claire 9/13 "I love polka-dot butterflies."

Claire 9/13 " This pencil needs to get sharpt. Can I sharpt this pencil in myself?"

Claire 9/13 after pulling a piece of tape off of something successfully, "I am a great job."

Claire 8/13 "One time a dog pooped on the grass."

Me, "Why are you telling me that?"

Claire, "Because it was weally gross, PU!"

Claire 8/13 I walked in and exclaimed what a mess it was. "I didn't got that out," said Claire pointing at one little thing.

Claire 10/12 "Ehhhhh he he, ehhh he he."

Gaurd at the Airforce gate, "That sounds like a fake cry."

Me, "Yep."

Claire, "Ehhh he he, ehhh he he. It NOT a fake cwy."

Will 10/12 "Mom, could I miss school on Wednesday, because they're going to learn something really hard like minus?"

Me, "Well what would you do the next day when they were still learning more about that?"

Will, "No mom, we don't have to make up the homework when we miss."

Claire 10/12 "You not funny Will."

Claire 10/12 (almost in tears with the saddest little voice because she wanted all of the toys) "Mommy, brothers not sharing a me."

Claire 10/12 chasing her brothers around slowly with her arms outstretched says, "Bwains, bwains, bwains!" just like a real zombie.

Will 10/12 "Xander is white, and I'm white, and mom's white and Claire is white and dad's a little white."

Will 3/12 "Dad and I are getting gooder at disc golf."

Xander 3/12 seeing frozen peas in his drink that had spilled into the icebox, "Mom, there are green cotton balls in my drink."

Will 12/11 "I know something that's not a word: spit-buggar."

Claire 12/11 "Ha ha, fuh-ee (funny)"

Will 12/11 after he broke a plastic fork, "I would like to put it in recycling because that saves the world."

Will 11/11 as he rubs the carpet, "I like this house because it's hairier than the other one."

Will 9/11 "Mom, could you call my nickname 'shark' please?"

Will 9/11 in a prayer while Blair was away for a month, "Bless that we would ever see dad again, and if we drive there it wouldn't be too long."

Will 3/11 after I asked him how primary was, he said, "I was the 1st kid in class. I thought I was going to have to taught myself."

Will 3/11 "Mom, is today fast Sunday."

Me "What is fast Sunday Will?"

Will, "When we eat really fast."

Will 3/11 "Xander is saying mean things, like that I'm not the leader."

Blair told Will to go to the bathroom with him while we were out somewhere and he was doing the potty dance 3/11, "Hey I had to go to the bathroom too!"
