Nice spring weather

We have been enjoying wonderful spring weather this past week, and have been able to spend a ton of time outside. Here are some pictures. We have taken the training wheels off Kate's bike, but she hasn't quite gotten the hang of riding. Both Emma and Noah took theirs off too, and figured it out, so she is anxious to start riding with her friends. Jack has been spending most of his outside time on the slide, running around with Scout, or digging up mulch. He is not too interested in peddling his tricycle, but says he wants a big boy bike, so we might look into that for his birthday. Will is at a very hard age for outside. He is fine when he stays on the grass/mulch and digs with Jack, but unfortunately, he loves to run back and forth across the cement, which makes me very nervous! He has been walking for a few months, but the sidewalk is not forgiving at all when you land on your face. He also refuses to wear real shoes, so only wears his soft leather ones.

Another wiggly tooth

Kate's lower left central incisor that is coming in has decided that it needs the space of TWO baby teeth, so has started pushing the right one out of the way. Based on the last one, this second will probably fall out by the end of the week, but with this big girl tooth already half in, it might be hard to notice.

Update 3/4/2009

Well, it is finally March, so spring is on its way! We all can't wait to get outside to play and plant!! Kate - Is snack girl today at school, one of her most favorite things! The kids get to do fun things when it is their snack day (about 1 time a month) like lead the line, pour juice for snack, turn lights on/off, etc. Kate is really enjoying her Irish dance class, and we have signed up for next session. She looks very graceful and strong doing the steps. Jack - Has hit the terrible twos even though he will be 3 next month. He has started throwing temper tantrums when he doesn't get his way, and then there is the constant picking on Kate (which I guess won't ever end). Will - Has an ear infection. We tried to get him to beat it on his own, but last night after dance class he started getting a fever and was super cranky, so we ran up to Walgreens to fill his Amox Rx that Dr. M had given us on Monday. We are really battling his eczema on his neck, face, and have...
