March 4th

I can't believe it is March. Will was 18 mo on the first. Hard to believe. Over the weekend he started saying "awesome" and "pretzel." He is getting so big so fast! Clare has always been a fast talker, but I guess I just forgot how fast they learn--little sponges! They spent the night at grandma & grandpas this Saturday. It was nice to have the time with Michael but I also missed them like crazy. Buggers also have me used to getting up by 6:30 so I was up plenty early Sunday! Michael did take me to IHOP so that was good. We got our taxes done so that was an accomplishment. The house got picked up, the laundry caught up! Amazing what you can do with a little time!
Clare and Will both have colds. Clare's isn't draining but Wills is -- all the time! But, I think it is a cold only, so that is good. Pray that it is! We are anxious to get to KC for the Easter holiday. It's always great to have a little down time and to see family. Clare is counting down the days!
Well, I am off to teach swim lessons and Clare and Will are hanging out with grandma "mermaid." Why she is called that, I don't know. We are supposed to get some crappy weather, so we'll have to wait and see. We are SO SICK OF THIS!
Have a great day
