Welcome To Moes

The kids love Moe’s (as do I) and Jake has gotten to know the phrase “Welcome to Moe’s” that the staff yells at anyone who walks in the door.  He loves yelling it out, but always seems to yell it out 30 seconds after the staff has yelled it.  Late, but he always gets a smile from anyone around him when he does it.

Lee Tries a Lemon

Olivia saw lemons in the refrigerator the other day and asked what it was.  I told her and she said she wanted to taste on.  I told her she could if she wanted but it would be very sour.  She didn’t care, and actually kind of liked it.  Crazy Lee.

Go Karts

We went to Frankie’s Fun Park Sunday.  Kids got to play video games, run around, and have fun.  Olivia got to drive a go-kart for the fist time too and did real well.  The only problem she had was on her final lap they told her to hit the break and she forgot where it was so she just “slammed” into the wall to stop.  She thought it was hilarious.  Jake had a good time too but was very upset that Olivia got to go on the karts and not him so there was a lot of crying during those laps.

Softball

Brooke was invited to a “Professor Appreciation Day” last week where a softball player calls out their favorite professor and brings them out on the field.  She decided to bring Olivia along as well to see the game.  Olivia and Benjamin got to go out on the field as well and get in the pictures.  She is such a ham..

After getting her picture taken, Olivia got to play a little softball for the first time.  She had a blast and we have been playing on the backyard as well on the weekends.  She is pretty good at it.

 

Pizza Night

Sunday night we did our first home made pizza night since we have been in the new house.  It was a long time coming.   Brooke, Jake and I liked it, but as usual, Olivia was not amused.  She did enjoy making the pizza at least.  She didn’t care for eating the pizza though and kept asking where the “big” slices were.  You can tell how unamused she is in the one picture where she is eating.

 

 

Scooter

Jake has finally taken to his scooter after watching Olivia ride hers.  He is doing a good job on it too.  Just needs to get the steering down a little better.

 

St. Patrick’s Day

Olivia was really looking forward to St. Patty’s day again this year.  She remembers all the mischief that the little leprechaun caused last year and also the chocolate gold coins.  Well, he appeared last night.  I was woken up at 2:00 in the morning by a wide eyed Lee excitedly telling me that he had been in her room and there were clothes all over the floor and a big mess.  I was hoping she wouldn’t find it until the morning, but either way, it was fun watching how excited she was in the middle of the night.  And I am kind of surprised the whole situation didn’t freak her out a little more.
