Here is what we have been up to for the past few months - end of February - April. I realize the end of February doesn't really count as spring, but I had to include these last couple of pictures from the winter.
I was a mystery reader in Brooks' class in February.
It was sweet to see him excited to see me!
A Chair Affair is a big fundraiser for The Boys and Girls Club of Rochester.
We went with some friends and had a blast.
And the night ended just as the massive blizzard of 2019 began.
Following this night, we were trapped in our house for the next 3 days!
Here we are with the Yuans and Morreys.
Jon, Brandon, and Andy Sems.
We bought a few things.
This was Jon's purchase from the live auction, entitled The Club Chair.
Me and my love!
Brooks finished up the looooong hockey season the first weekend in March.
He really enjoyed playing, especially ice skating really fast.
We really enjoyed watching him!
I also got to see most of my high school girlfriends and their kids that first weekend of March.
Pink Stars: Molly, Schroeder, me, Ruth, Amanda, Kristin.
Just missing Marissa.
We also had a fun visit with the Engstroms.
Hacker is Jon's best friend from high school and college.
We took a party bus to the St. Paul Grille to celebrate our friend, Megan's, 40th birthday!
Then the ice dams struck.
We had two, one of which caused quite a bit of damage in our kitchen.
We had to make an insurance claim, but thankfully it was covered and fairly quickly repaired.
Water damage in the kitchen.
At one point, water was leaking in at a rapid pace.
The kids had spirit week at school leading up to spring break.
This was Wacky Wednesday.
Brooks had a lightning bolt and Kylie had star hair.
Then Spring Break began with sleepovers for both Kylie and Brooks.
Brooks had Bennett over to our house.
And Kylie stayed over at the Yuan's house along with Annabelle.
We also went to the Science Museum...
...got a new-to-us mini van in preparation for baby #4's arrival...
...spent a morning at Oxbow....
...and painted with Halle and Blair at Color Me Mine.
Quinn learned how to take selfies.
Brooks drew a cool polar bear.
April arrived and brought with it some warmer weather!
Kylie and Jon before the Father/Daughter Dance.
Erica, Kristen, and I are able to help each other out with some babysitting during different appointments and such.
I had Emme and Meredith over one morning.
They are becoming sweet friends!
This is a picture that Erica sent me of Emme and Quinn!
We dyed Easter eggs.
We spent Easter at the Barlow's, but before we headed up there we went to an Easter Egg Hunt with the Yuan and Camp families.
Quinn with her Easter basket.
Me with my favorite kids!
Jon was on call, and couldn't make it to Easter this year.
Matchy sisters.
And the big Barlow family (minus Jon).
It's been a wonderful spring. We are looking forward to a wild May...Baby Boy Barlow to arrive any day now! :)
