Some fun in March

Here are some pictures and videos from March (minus out trip to AZ - which will come later). It was a good month with strangely gorgeous weather with the exception of a couple days of snow. One storm actually left us with really fun snow to play in during spring break- ironic, unless you live in Colorado Springs. This was the first time of the season we were able to do this- so we were really excited! Another fun thing that happened in March was that our nieces Daryn and Alyxe flew out to stay with us (all by themselves). It was so nice to have them here, the kids absolutely LOVED it! Daryn and Alyxe were a big help with the kids too. They were also very patient since our schedule didn't allow a lot of time to explore and do a lot of fun things, but we did manage to have some fun:) I don't have any pictures b/c I took them with my cell phone and I'm not smart enough to figure out how to download them. Anyway, here's the fun in the snow....The kids sledding down our street.




Notice their faces are really red from trying to eat all the snow!



All bundled up!




Here's Colton on his 10 month birthday :) getting comfortable with standing while holding onto something.






Colton with his lil' friend Laraleigh, "Hey mom, look what we can do!"
Colton in jail, this was Colton when waking up from a nap, I love his expression! Colton standing by himself for a few split seconds at 10 mos.



10 mos.....just like his face :)



Our beautiful, messy baby boy


Baby's got BLING! This was after having dinner with a few friends and their families. The beads was either the doing of a dad or sibling, not me.



Our handsome lil' men! This is about as close as I have to matching outfits for the boys.


This was a baby crawling contest with not a lot of action at our friends' son, Max's 1st b-day party. If you notice the baby girl (whose like months younger than the rest of the babies) is taking the dramatic lead, then at the last second Colton dashed over the finish line first after we bribed him with candy or something like that :) So funny.


The kids look like they're having a whole lotta fun, ay? Colton's got his precious pouty face on and Max (the birthday boy) has just about had it with all the partying. It's always such an adventure trying to take pictures of a group of babies!

Here's a video (my first try in downloading video on the blog) of the dads trying to change the babies' diapers and get them dressed while blindfolded at the party. Please excuse te brief nudity! Thanks Mel for the fun time and cute games.


This lil' video is of Colton and his new best friend, Bingo dog (thanks Gramma and Grandad). He gets sooo into it and has started dancing a lot now because of it. Hope you enjoy...
