MOO-stache!

I've said this before and it's still true. Ryker is OBSESSED with moustaches. Here is yet another picture in our collection of Ryker's moustaches. I know there are more to come =)

Stavia's First Hair Cut!

Stavia FINALLY got her first haircut. I was finally able to give in. It looks so much healthier. I should have given in a long time ago =(

There was flu and other illness going around a couple weeks ago and Stavia picked up something. We aren't sure what she had other than a fever but it made her completely lethargic. PERFECT time for a haircut. She sat still the entire time and did just what she was told. She didn't have enough energy to fight it.

Here is my cute little sick girl before her haircut. You can tell by her eyes that she's miserable =(

Here is the incredibly patient sickling holding still while Aunt Anna gives her a hair cut.

This hair cut is six weeks before her third birthday and this is all she had to spare... She is a woman of few hairs.

After! Like I said, she was sick so I wasn't going to fight her on looking at the camera. She already did a great job sitting still and listening throughout the entire haircut. She looks older! All ready to be three!!

Super Hawkeye Fans!

For Christmas I made Ryker and Stavia Super Fan Capes. They aren't high quality but the kids have fun with them. One night before bed they wanted to show off.

Happy St. Patricks Day!!

To those of you that haven't given up on me, THANK YOU! I am trying to do a better job with all this blogging business. I'm just not very good about taking pictures so that doesn't help matters at all =(

Today I made a green lunch. It's a tradition my mom started when I was little and I'm trying to carry it on to my kids.

They had so much fun grocery shopping earlier this week picking out things that are green. We had corned beef, cabbage and new potatoes. All of our sides were green: green peas, asaragus, lime jello, granny smith apples, kiwi and mint milkshakes for dessert! I think that's all? It was so fun this year because Ryker and Stavia are old enough to help with prep for the meal and set the table. They ate all of their food because of the theme and asked if we can do it again! They get do do it sooner than they think because I made so much food they will have the same meal for leftovers tonight..oops!
