We went to Grammy Wilson's today!  She had a whole box full of shredded paper, so she did this with it.  They LOVED it and ask for it to snow again every time they come over, haha.  She was finding random confetti everywhere for weeks!  And this is why Grandma's are so cool, cause I wouldn't have done it!  They all had a BLAST!

Aunt Tiara babysat our kids for us (as she often does, because she ROCKS!!) and got quite the scare.  Poor girl!  She put the kids in bed for the night and Evan decided he wanted in our bedroom, so she put him in there.  Well he got up and locked the door, then tried to get out and couldn't.  Tiara got the little lock pick that comes with the doors and picked it after a bit, then hugged him and calmed him down and put him back in bed.  She checked the door to make sure it wasn't locked and ended up locking it again.  After that she just couldn't get the door open again and started to panic.  The kids were freaking out and so was Evan.  Poor girl!  She got a screwdriver and took the handle off the door, but still it was locked shut and Evan wouldn't/couldn't open it.  So she took this picture on my phone (we leave it with her since we don't have a home phone) and sent it to Mom and Dad for help.

We got home shortly after and it took Ryan all of 30 seconds to open it and maybe 5 minutes to put the knob back on.  Poor Tiara thought we would be furious and that she had broken the door and we would have to buy a new one.  I remember a few scares I had when I first started babysitting, and it's pretty scarry! I made sure she knew we weren't the least upset and that she did a great job.  Luckily by the time I got her home she'd calmed down and felt much better.  Poor sweet Tiara!

Happy Martin Luther King Jr Day!  It was beautiful outside so we decided to drive to the lake!

Ahh, this is the life!

Kids had fun making sand castles 

We played on the beach in the sand and went on a walk, where we found a fun playground.  We just really enjoyed hanging out together as a family.

When we got home we moved all the bedrooms around to get ready for baby boy.  That meant little Brayden moved from his crib into a toddler bed!!  He did great!  He was so happy to be in with the big boys!

So at my last OB apt the Doc was listening to baby's heartbeat and asked Evan "Do you hear that? That's the babies heartbeat. Where's your heart?" Evan very seriously says "I don't have a heart." Haha. I said Evan I think you do and he says "no, I don't have a heart!" Silly boy. When I told Ryan about it that night Evan still insisted he doesn't have a heart. Our little Grinch. Love that boy of mine!

We were supposed to meet some friends for a playgroup after school, but I got the wrong address or my gps took me somewhere totally different.  After driving around for a while I found this really cool playground!  The kids had a blast and Dad met us there after work, it was so fun!

The 3 oldest and I went to see Frozen sing a long!! It was sooo much fun!!  The girls and I loved belting it out and just enjoying it!  Logan told me afterwards that it was fun and he liked it, but I didn't sing mom!  Hahah, yes Logs I noticed, haha.
