March was a super fun month in 2015! We had the typical Texas wonky-winter-weather (say that 3 times fast) which meant we had everything from 80 degree days with lots of sun to 29 degree days with ice on the roads. Hank was so thrilled to have an ice day – which meant school was cancelled and resulted in him sleeping in, wearing pajamas most of the day and playing video games on a week day – fun times! It also meant that Daddy got to stay home from work (safety first) and that is always lovely!
We had fun this month playing with friends and family. We helped Uncle Josh celebrate his 40th birthday with a fun, super-hero themed surprise birthday party. It was so fun hanging out with aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents and some of Josh’s friends. Hank also helped his good friend, Emma, celebrate her birthday by going rollerskating with her – it was both of thier first time on rollerskates and they had so much fun! He enjoyed some playdates with friends this month both at our house (or thiers) and at parks when the weather was good. Our family went to the cabin over spring break and spent some time with more cousins, aunts, uncles and grandparents (there is a separate post about that trip).
Hank continues to love school and is having lots of fun in Kindergarten. We went to his school’s Spring Carnival and had a great time (even when it was our turn to man his class’ “booth” which was a large bounce house. Tyler and Sarah took it in turns playing referee for an hour to help Hank’s class/school – we are learning lots about what volunteering in your child’s school really looks like). Hank has also been enjoying playing violin. He wrapped up his time in Ms. Allison’s studio by playing “Allegro” for his spring recital. He begins lessons with a new teacher in April (Ms. Allison is going on maternity leave). Hank began baseball at the end of this month and we got to experience what was a norm for Tyler’s parents when he was growing up, going from one activity to another in the same day in support of both sports and the fine arts. Hank had baseball practice and a game, then he changed clothes from his baseball uniform into his suit and ate a snack in the car on the way to his violin recital. It was a full and busy day, but incredibly fun and Hank did well in both events.
We realize we didn’t take many photos this month. Here are a few photos, in no particular order, from our various adventures in March.
