March 25, 2009: Due to the interesting weather we've had (like getting 6 inches of snow) Michelle has been forced to ride her scooter in the basement.
March 26, 2009: My grandmother's grandparents that came to Utah from England in the late 1860's via ship, train, wagons and walking. My pioneer ancestors: William Swansea Lewis and his wife Sarah Walsh.
March 27, 2009: Ever since Michelle's school friend moved away she's has found new friends that have taught her jump roping. In just over a week her skills have greatly increased and her jumping rhymes brought back childhood memories: "Cinderella dressed in yella, went upstairs to kiss a fella....."
March 28, 2009: Gabriella lost her favorite stuffed animal Dottie. Trevor, Caleb and I searched for 2 hours both inside and outside with no luck. After enduring over an hour of crying in her bed I finally resorted to giving her the spare Dottie. She looked at it strangely but decided that we must've just really cleaned up her old Dottie. You should have seen her face when I happened to find her old Dottie crammed inside the box of wipes at diaper changing time (who knows where Gabriella hid the wipes). She held both Dotties for a few seconds before tossing the new one and kissing her old one.
March 29, 2009: Maybe the girls wearing new Spring dresses will encourage Spring to actually come...and stay.
March 30, 2009: The new Walmart has a huge Star Wars guy (I'm sure Caleb knows the guy's name). The kids stopped and stared for 10 minutes before we could go any further into the store. At this rate it'll take us days and days to make it all the way through Lego Land on our upcoming vacation.
March 31, 2009: The slowness of the office computer about drove me nuts as I was simply trying to scan the computer to make sure it wasn't infected with the conflicka virus/worm/whatever it was.
April 1, 2009: Caleb's first ever organized soccer game. He was a great first half goalie and an even better second half scorer. His team won 7-3.
April 2, 2009: I took the kids to the pet store while Michelle was at clogging lessons. We have a hamster but apparently Caleb still has issues with mice.
April 3, 2009: Snowy, cold days brought out the need for Play-Doh.
April 4, 2009: The Smith family tradition of a get-together during General Conference, had the kids doing crafts such as Caleb's blue and white Pokemon mouse.
April 5, 2009: I didn't even think about taking a picture today, but Megan saved the day by "borrowing" my camera and taking lots and lots of pictures. This is her self portrait. Most of her other pictures were close-ups of her thumb.
April 6, 2009: During yesterday's "nap" Gabriella decided not to sleep but to undress herself including the diaper. Therefore her sheets and blankets were in the wash so I gave her a new blanket (she'd actually been given it for Christmas when she was 10 days old). She loved the pink blankie with puppies on it so much she couldn't part with it this morning.
