Welcome Spring!
















Well, spring is here and it's supposed to snow today. Ugh! We have had a few really nice days though. I've been able to get out for a couple long walks/jog with Alena and it's so much more refreshing than the treadmill.
Hasn't been all that eventful around here. Soph is off this week for Spring Break. She went to the Museum of Natural History with Uncle Rich and the kids on Monday and loved it. She also had a sleepover with her friend Jesse and came home with a Webkins Frog! She is having a ball with that thing!
Sophia managed to escape the stomach virus that the rest of us had. Talk about ugly!! It was awful. Started with my mom, then Alena, then Fred and last but not least, me. YUCK!
Everyone is doing well now with the exception of Alena's teething. That poor baby is working on her four first molars and two anterior teeth and she's pretty uncomfortable at times.
The van has been wonderful and Alena has learned that as soon she is seated to point at the video screen and say "that" and mommy might turn on her Little Mermaid movie!! She also loves her big sister's DVD of music videos. She dances away and claps in her carseat. It's hysterical!!
Looking forward to getting outside and doing things in the yard. Fred is anxious to get working on the koi pond as well. All of our koi survived the winter and we can't wait to be able to sit out there and enjoy them.
It's about to get pretty busy- Sophia will start tennis soon and we think we have finally found a new ranch for her to start horseback riding lessons again. Fred has been working a lot of overtime lately and I will be doing a little traveling May-July.
Can't wait to get the girls out to Connecticut to do some camping too! Alena is going to love the beach as much as Sophia does and I would like to get them to Mystic Aquarium this summer also.
Hope everyone is well and maybe enjoying some nice weather!!
With Love,
Jenni

Oh - the girls are always so cute! Your weather sounds about like ours - we got snow flurries today and yesterday...and the day before that Quinn wore shorts! Ugh. Oh well, spring has got to come back again soon, right?? And then after that, there will be beach photos. Even better!

I love the last picture of Alena, it looks like she is saying, "Now what can I do with this?"

Love dad

Thanks for always posting such cute pictures of Alena. You remind those of us paperchasing and waiting what we're doing all this for! Glad to hear the minivan's working out too! I'm an official club member too.

Boy o' boy that baby just loves momma's Longaberger. I love that you keep getting pictures of her getting into it.

I love that she is in her diaper. Now you have some pictures to threaten her with when she gets a boyfriend!!!
