Happy St. Patrick's Day

I had so many stinkin' pictures this time that I picked all but 2 of them!  Here goes!!!

Smaug's new car seat came in the mail :)  He's so cute!  I actually ended up putting his carrier car seat back in because it's easier to put the carrier in the cart at Target :)  But, we'll switch it back soon!!!

Okay, so you have to look carefully at this one...  TW (with Daddy's help) put his pulley up on the garage door opener and then attached a bucket (via rope) to it... in this shot, Pretty Girl is raising/lowering the bucket!

Did Mr. E get a black eye???  No... but when I saw him from a distance, I sure thought he had... it turned out to be sand!

For whatever reason, TW spent an entire day in a BK crown... even when he played "memory" with contractions :p

In science we just finished up the integumentary system... so, of course, we had to fingerprint ourselves (by ourselves, I mean TW)... he has all arches and loops, no whorls in his fingerprints!

We got this survival book recently, TW loves it... he read (i.e. looked at the pictures) about building a fire, then went outside and did this...

TW made me this flower in Sunday School last week :)

Smaug has been scootching backwards, headfirst... he started in the toy room to the right!

Pretty Girl kept me company while I made breakfast one morning!

Here are the bunks in the girls room... everyone was playing on them one morning!

Daddy needs a new phone, and the van needed an oil change.  So while we waited on the van, we went and looked at phones (they're next door, conveniently)... the kids were entertained (for a very brief amount of time) on the rug!

TW caught a frog (actually many frogs) last week... he put one on a leash...

Playing together one morning...

On Friday, Daddy left for Savannah for the weekend for some training flights (before I forget, he fueled up in Andalusia :) )... we got everyone up and left the house at 5:57... they were a little grouchy later during the day...

... Berry recovered and ran around with a box on her head for a while!

Today, we made cookies...  And that about sums everything up!  Grammy, I almost have Pretty Girl's dress done.... I just have to hem the lining :)

In Other News:  Apparently Mr. E can climb up on the dog food to get down the last two boxes of special treat juices, open the straws up, stab the boxes and guzzle down the insides very quietly and without making a mess.  Fortunately, This One is not a liar and fessed up to the crime... how could I be upset about that?  However, when TW said he watched it but didn't say a word, well...
