oh man, it's march!

is it just me or did february go by twice as fast as january? wow! it's march, the trees are starting to blossom, azalea turns 7(!) this month. what is going on?! the kids had a good first week back at school after their break (and so did their mama). i don't have a ton of pictures from the weekend, but nothing major happened so that's why. 

friday night i was not feeling like cooking (and i got a $68 check from caribou coffee from an unauthorized texting civil lawsuit - score!), so i suggested that we should go out for dinner. we went to the hi life in our neighborhood. it's a great place and super kid-friendly. dare i say it's actually relaxing to eat out with the kids these days? i mean, they didn't fight at all while we were there, which is more than i can say about our dinners at home. ;)

this boy was being a total goof!

saturday morning azalea had a play date at her classmate graecyn's house. she was so excited for it! i dropped her off and then walked to royal drummer coffee shop in our neighborhood and read my book for an hour. thatcher stayed home with ashford and they played legos. in the afternoon, i took the kids to ross park, which is about a 10 minute drive from us. it was a beautiful day - 50 degrees and sunny! it's fun coming back to all of our favorite parks each spring when the nicer weather returns. free entertainment and sunshine can't be beat!



 we made a pork & veggie stir fry for dinner and just hung out at home the rest of the night.

sunday morning thatcher took the kids to cafe mox (game store/restaurant i've mentioned before). it was ashford's first time and he was so excited to get to go! azalea has been there a couple times with thatcher and loves it. i got my hair trimmed and then picked up some groceries. thatcher went out in the afternoon while i hung out with the kids at home. we've been doing a lot of trading off parenting on the weekends since we don't have the luxury of grandparent babysitters these days (and we have been terrible about finding other babysitters). it helps everyone's sanity ;) we made ribs for dinner and the kids played some video games to end the weekend. 

i'm looking forward to daylight savings next weekend and an extra hour of daylight in the evenings!

Hooray for restaurant time with kiddos! It can be tough, but so nice to get out and relax.
