Happy Spring!

We are so excited for spring to be here! I have been a big slacker with my camera & so my blog has not been happening! I will try harder! Last month we had a few warm days & Clayton & Claire decided to "go swimming" I wouldn't let them turn on the hose (I think it might have been 50 deg) so they filled up a big bowl full of water ,from inside, And tried to "swim" in that!
Bill also decided to try cutting the boys hair... They were not very excited, but he didn't do too bad! Connor would not allow me to take any pictures of this!

Mother Bear!!!

OK. This is not my normal blog style but I am so grumpy & I wonder if I am overreacting, or not, so I would love any comments! So Connor & Kennedy were walking home from school & a girl we know took some snow & shoved it down Connors shirt.He laughed (she did too) So Connor made a snowball & pegged her on her back. She was surprised & her brother said to Connor "Why did you hit my little sister!" ...Then the girl started crying & acting like a big victim!
When Connor came home from school he told me right away what happened & He was worried that he was going to be in trouble. I don't feel like he did anything wrong. I told him that he didn't, but maybe he needs to explain that he would never hurt any girl, but if she is willing play with the big boys, & dish it out, she better learn how to take it! Anyway, what do you think?
ROAR!!!

Office Suppies!!!

Last week was one of the best for Clayton! It started out with getting the croup.(how is that good?) He got to miss school ALL week long! Then he went on a "date" with Dad. They went to ...Cabelas & Walmart! & had some wonderful one on one time with Dad. & to top off the night , when he got home there was the biggest Office Depot catalog anyone has ever seen waiting for him!(thanks again, Brown Family) When he walked in the door Kennedy & Claire showed the catalog to him & he dropped the bag! & with a huge smile went to his room to enjoy his new found prize! Later that night when Connor, Kennedy & I were at dinner with Grandma & Grandpa & the Family...Jayna brought Clayton ANOTHER office supply catalog that was ever bigger then the Office Depot thing! I don't know how things could get any better for him! the pictures don't do justice! Bill & I are wondering what will be the next big thing for him to be obsessed with, I am sure whatever it is will come from these catalogs!
