Spring Has Sprung . . .

and there is evidence of it all around.  Like the fact that my daffodils and tulips have started to bloom,

and my backyard patio is covered in sidewalk chalk.

Madeleine is drawing a leprechaun at the end of a rainbow  Leprechauns have turned into her drawing speciality..

Her friend, Abby, is drawing the rainbow.

Together they drew a rainbow and a unicorn.  I love it!

I believe Audrey was drawing a rainbow.

Proudly posing in front of the unicorn she drew.

More evidence that spring has sprung; balls flying around in the backyard.

And of course there have been many trips to the park.  Steven took the girls to the park one evening this week while I went to Jazzercise.  He took the following pictures.  Have I mentioned lately that I think he is a brilliant photographer?!

The following pictures don't really have anything to do with Spring other than Audrey has a new perspective on life and Spring is all about new life.

In case you missed it when I posted it on Facebook, Audrey got glasses.

She loves to look at herself in the mirror and when she does she says, "I am so adorable"!  She also took a good look at her hand after first putting her glasses on and said, "I can see my hand! It's not blurry"!  She can see the world in a whole new way now!

Yesterday I had a conversation with another mom while the girls were at dance.  I shared with her my concerns about Audrey keeping her glasses in tact.  She replied, "At least she's not a boy.  I think they are harder on their glasses".  She doesn't know my Audrey . . .

She's a monkey . . . and I am concerned for her glasses.
