Spring is in the Air…

I hope you are all doing well!  It’s beginning to feel a lot like Spring around here!  Here are some pictures from our last month…

2/24 – Teddy came to stay at the Ratliff House (again) for the weekend Smile

Connor is our big animal lover!  He loves all kinds of animals and was so excited to introduce Teddy to his other “pets.”

On 2/27, we brought dinner to our dear friends, the Onks, who just had a new baby, Laney Grace, on 2/6.  This is Jason Onks with Laney and Jason with Caroline

This is after throwing a 20 minute fit.  He was exhausted.

Poor Cole got sick on 3/6 Sad smile

While waiting at the doctor’s office, a little boy walked up to Cole, in his stroller, and said hello.  Cole, immediately, turned to me and said, “Mom, he’s harassing me.” the entire office exploded in laughter!

He’s back to napping in the afternoon now that he’s in school!

So this was an interesting day…Cole broke Connor’s glasses (AGAIN) and I took them all to the eye glass place to get them all patched up and try to find an indestructible pair.  At the place where they are fixing Connor’s old pairs of glasses, Connor tells the technician that I haven’t fed him in a week.  Not cool, especially when the tech obviously doesn’t have any children and glares at me, disgusted, until we left.  So, then I take them to Lens Crafters because I hear of these miracle frames that can bend in any way and not break.  So while there, Connor is sitting on my lap and being measured for the frames and he loudly says, “Mom, your hand is on my penis.”  SHEW!  I don’t know how we escaped 2 CPS calls that day!  This is a picture of his new glasses and below is a picture of the side of the frames showing why they don’t break Winking smile

Back to the doctor on 3/11 to check Cole’s ears Smile

3/12…this is basically all I can get Cole to eat.  Greek yogurt, fruit and maybe some crackers.

We met up with friends at Bristol Bounce and the kids played for hours.  It was awesome.  This is my preggo buddy, Aaron and her baby Pete, who is 15 days older than Caroline.

Caroline was fascinated with him…

I love this picture…She is so thrilled to hold Harper’s hand.  She thinks she’s a big girl…

Later that night we had a delicious dinner with Daddy at Mad Greek and Cole sat in a big boy chair!  He’s such a good boy now!
