...had Anna help Daddy cook...(she was perfectly safe...)
...we visited the Herr's Potato Chip Factory in Pennsylvania and got to see how the chips are made and even eat some potato chips directly off the belt, still warm...very yummy...
...Anna just got cuter...so we took some pictures...she puts her arms way up in the air now when we say "how big is Anna?"...and when we ask her where her armpits are...she knows she'll get tickled...she loves to eat...she was 19.9lbs at her 12 month appointment so probably about 20lbs now...she is walking a lot more now...she realized how much more she can get into with her hands if they are free...she smiles...she laughs...she waves...she is happy and sweet and pleasant...we love her so much...
...we're going to attempt a new activity on Monday nights where I have one child help me cook something and hopefully sort of learn how to do it...(thank you JL for the idea)...so this is Jack...he picked Fettucine Alfredo to make...he did a good job shopping for the ingredients and putting things in the pot and stirring...
...this last week has been beautiful and Spring-like outside so we've been taking lots of walks...we decided to get all Springy in Anna's outfit on Monday and walk to the park and a bakery...then Tuesday we didn't walk there but went to the park and played on the swing...Jack was getting all kinds of parents to push him on the tire swing with their kids...Wednesday we went with our friends to walk on the Ma & Pa trail...it was a lovely...hot...walk...Anna had a great time chatting with Hazel though...it was fun talking with G too...:)
(this is mid-story..."my daddy is THIS big!")
...Hazel decided she wanted to come over the next day too and borrow some of Anna's clothes...her Mom said no so she took matters into her own hands and threw up all over the place...forcing her Mom to come over and change her...and maybe clean up the throw-up too...that's okay though...we like having surprise visitors...
...so far March has been pretty fun!!!

so much fun!!!!
I love this idea about letting them choose and help cook once a week. When I was growing up we did that, but I was much older. It is good to start younger --- what a fun month for all of you!
