March was a busy month! The weather was still not warm, but we managed to get outside quite a bit. We got to go to Portland to visit cousins. That was a lot of fun and we spent time in museums and around the house with them. From Oregon we flew to DC to visit Dad.
 |
| The month started off with snow! There wasn't enough to do much in it, but the boys took advantage of the last snowfall before getting ready for spring. It's just fun to play in I guess. |
 |
| The boys made a little "house" on the corner of the deck. They have fun playing with random things they can find in and around the yard. |
 |
| Transporting snow in the truck. |
 |
| A variety of pictures the boys made one morning. They enjoy paint. |
 |
| Patterns! If Justin does it, Ryan wants to do it too. |
 |
| Once again, Ryan must do what Justin does. :) |
 |
| Justin has trouble with these words for some reason. Maybe a bit of glitter glue will help glue them in his head. |
 |
| I would explain this picture, but I don't know that I can. Justin has made up some sort of game. He loves using dice, spinners, game boards, and random toys to make all sorts of games to play. Creativity can be a bit of a mess sometimes. |
 |
| At Justin's school the boys participated in a balloon race. Note: do NOT overinflate the balloons. When they pop, it can scare everyone! |
 |
| Ryan, Justin, and I went with my mom to the Mobius Science Museum in Spokane. We had gone there with Rob in January. |
 |
| St Patrick's Day is as exciting as other holidays. The boys spent days working on their leprechaun traps. This was our second year trying to catch a leprechaun. We were still unsuccessful. :( |
 |
| One of many leprechaun traps. |
 |
| Yet another trap. |
 |
| A simple trap with a note promising treasure. |
 |
| Justin sorted 3-D shapes by color and shape. He then multiplied to find out how many there were all together. Ryan, Justin, and I looked for 2D and 3D shapes in the environment and they took pictures of some they found around the house. |
 |
| Tinkertoys are always fun to build with. |
 |
| Justin sequenced the "I have, who has" cards using his math skills. |
 |
| We went to Oregon to visit our cousins. They played a little ball in the backyard. |
 |
| Justin found that he likes marshmallows beter straight out of the bag. It's nice to sit by the fire though. |
 |
| We made paper rockets and shot them off of a pvc pipe launcher attached to an air compressor. |
