What better way to celebrate St Patty's Day than at the bowling alley? Mommy and Daddy took for a few frames and I enjoyed myself. I just need to figure out how to throw the ball standing up rather than rolling it while on my knees -- practice makes perfect right?

Spring is in the air and we are spending more time outside. He loves his ATV that he got for his birthday. He is quite masterful on it. His confidence scares Mommy. He is fast, furious, and ALL BOY!

Fletcher is talking up a storm. He has turned into a bossy nurturer and a master of manipulation. "Come, Mommy!" "Eat this, Mommy." "This is for you, Mommy." Just as Mommy takes care of Fletcher, he "tries" to take care of her. It is cute. He has managed to get two separate story times (one from Mommy and one from Daddy) at bedtime. So, he gets 6-8 books read to him a night. If it were anything else but books, we wouldn't cave, but it is nutrients for his developing brain (right?) and cuddle time for all of us!

Fletcher is 44" tall and weighs 49lbs. He is growing like a weed, but surprisingly he's been the same weight for about 18 months -- the plumpness is spreading out.

Mommy is healthy, Daddy is energized, and we all are happy -- what a blessing!

If you were at our house over the past two months, pretty much where ever you found Fletcher, Elijah was nearby -- they've been like two peas in a pod which has been enjoyable to witness.

He has been enjoying his time with Elijah, Eben and Aunt Jeana and Uncle John. He will miss them when they move into their new house this week.

Elijah, Eben and Fletcher and the toy bomb... that we constantly clean up...

Fun with their guitars... Rocking it out!!

Mexican wrestling masks that Daddy had to buy when we were in Mexico.

Exploring the outdoors and getting fresh air...

Fletcher in his gymnastics class. Some winter activity to keep him busy. He took his second round of swimming classes also.

Busy, busy boy!
