Spring really is here! Yuzzah!!!

So, Spring is officially here because I wore shorts this past weekend and we were briefly tempted to turn on the AC. We haven't yet, but we were tempted, that's how you know.

I'm still out of school this week and for the past two days when I got home from work, we went outside to play in the yard. The neighborhood kids are out a lot so Kenna enjoys it and Chloe enjoys it because there are a lot of dogs. Chloe loves dogs, and this week she was barking at one. She would copy the dog; it would bark then she would bark back in the same pattern. I got some video of it on my phone, but unfortunately, can't transfer it to a computer right now.

Kenna is finally getting the hang of peeing on the potty. She did it three times yesterday and hopefully we can have her peeing full-time by her third birthday, May 27.

Chloe is starting to talk, in Chloenese at least. She walks around talking gibberish all the time. None of it is intelligible, but very cute. She does say a few phrases and is getting better and imitating not only dogs, but people too.

Lindsay had her 25th birthday on April 29 and it was nice. We had the chance to go out to dinner and hang out together, alone. We had just gone out with each other two weekends before for the first time since Christmas, way too long, so it was nice to get two dates so close together. I got her a fancy pillow to help with her neck. She jokes that the present was half for me to get her to stop using her big, maternity body pillow - you know the u-shaped one that wraps around your whole body. I'm a snuggler at night so I get denied by her huge pillow, but I really got it because she has wanted a nice pillow for awhile now.

Anywho, here are some more pictures Sami took of the girls at the Tulip festival. Sami submitted the last one for a photo contest. I think my favorite is the first picture.
