[Easter Crafts!]

I cannot take credit for coming up with these ideas, which is why I have posted the links.

The children and I plan on making these for Easter.

Just thought that I would share!

[Busy Week]

March Break is upon us and we have been
busy,
busy,
busy.

As I mentioned in a previous post Colin and I had split up the break so that we had care covered off for the children. He kept them busy until Tuesday, then I took over on Wednesday.

Here is what our children have done so far this week:

Monday ~ went to the movies
Tuesday ~ went to visit Colin's grandmother
Wednesday ~ Madi went to an all day babysitting course. I took the other 2 to an indoor playplace with some friends.
Thursday ~ we all had some much needed down time. Then went out for lunch to celebrate Ashley passing her driver's test.
Friday ~ (today) we will be heading to the Science Centre.

I don't remember doing this much stuff when I was kid! Do you?

[Today I am...]

This morning I took my lovely niece for her G2 driver's test and she passed!
All of our weeks of practice driving paid off.
So proud of you, Ashley!

[Today]

[so there's this boy...]

Finally! He got a haircut.

Actually, I cut it.

After much tears[by him] and a lot of persauding[by me], he sat still enough so that I could cut it.

Not the best job but better than what it was.

This is how his hair was 5 days earlier, at Fin's b-day party.
He was still very handsome but very much in need of a cut!

[me...!]

[Happy Birthday Colin!]

Wishing my wonderful husband, a very Happy Birthday!

The above picture is of a Father's Day card that I got Colin about 6 years ago. When I saw it, I thought that it was perfect in every way. I even went so far as to frame it in a 5x5 frame and it hangs in my front hallway.

Those 2 little sentences sum up so well the kind of man, my husband is. When it comes to our little family of 5, he gives 110% all of the time. I don't know what I would do without him.

Happy Birthday darling. I Love You.

[2 Birthday Wishes for today]

Finally got a moment to sit down tonight. How is it that my days and nights can be so busy?

Can we add a few more hours to the day?...At any rate I have 2 Birthday wishes to send out.

1st one is to Zenna in Australia who is a BIG 3 years old today!

Wishing as always that we could be there to celebrate. We miss you and love you!

2nd one is to Baby Fin who turned 1 today!

Caleb and I are so happy that we got to celebrate with you on Sunday at your party.

Also, big hugs to Fin's Mommy as her baby reaches another milestone.

There will be another special Birthday wish tomorrow...

[Finally, using my laptop]

This is my first blog post from my new laptap, that Colin got me for Christmas. I have been having issues trying to get the whole wireless router thing set up but finally figured it out.
I am sure that this is not what Colin thought that I would be using this laptop for when he bought it for me but at least it is not just sitting anymore collecting dust.

Not much news to report on the Hendry front. The little one did not get sick after his sisters both had the bug, so that was a bonus {knock on wood}.

We are all just waiting for the nicer, warmer weather, {as I am sure everyone is} so that we can finally get out of the house more and get some other things done outside that need to be tended to.

March Break is approaching and we are all looking forward to that. Colin and I split up the break so that we don't need to find care for the girls. He is taking the first few days and then I am taking the rest of the week off. Soooo looking forward to that!

I'll finish with some pics that the kids and I took with the webcam on my laptop. They were being really silly and it was fun for some laughs!

[It's Friday...]

[Avery's Book]

[Spring...where are you?]

Let's hope that soon we will be seeing more of these in the near future. The days are getting a little bit longer and before we know it we will have to change the clocks.

Hopefully, the brighter longer days will get rid of the sickness that has descended upon our house. So far, the middle one has gotten sick, the oldest one is still sick and the little one has yet to get it.

2 down...1 to go.

[My Latest Creation]

I made this little book for Caleb. He loves it and so do the girls.
Avery has asked that I make one for her next!

[Caleb the Artiste]

Also known as the boy who wouldn't get a haircut.

[Three Little Monkeys...]

I love monkeys. So when I found these valentine's I just had to get them to make for my three.
