Most of our February was spent with Nonni, but here is a little look of what we were up to the rest of February and during March!
The Saturday after Nonni left, we headed back to the mall to paint the girls pottery.
They chose the prettiest spring colors! and did a fantastic job!
We ate lunch at Mike's Pizza!
And then we headed to our neighborhood CNY party to learn how to make dumplings :).
We had the best time learning how to make dumplings.
Finished product!! Turns out they didn't let us eat the ones we made, but they brought us some very delicious professionally made ones for dinner :).
I looooove these calendars I make for my mom (they are always a lot of work so I order myself one too!). March 1st happened to be one of my most favorite pictures of Everly Gracie I have ever taken :).
On Saturday, we took our scooters and had an early lunch at our favorite dumpling place.
Looking extra cute!
A quick stop at Starbucks and we were on our way to our Steam Train Weekend (more about this in the next post).
Back at home and ready for school with Mommy's sunglasses :).
Wes made tamales!! They were delish!
Whew, we finally went back to gymnastics class!
A shark got Everly!!
And then it was Everly's turn.
That night, we went over to our friends house to let the girls play while the adults chatted!
This girl loves a pair of sunglasses and found a huge pair of pink sunglasses!
We met friends at our favorite playground!
Ahhhh, those blue skies. So infrequent this month!
Such a happy girl at the playground! After playing, we headed back to our house where we ordered in Indian food (our new favorite cuisine) for us and our friends!
Wes came to have lunch with me one day (I had taken my team out for lunch the week prior and they chose this new to us place with pictures on the menu for easy ordering). This is my most favorite dish - it is a cold vegetable and noodle dish!
We followed it with a sweet treat!
So thankful he made the long haul out to have lunch with me!
It was Emma's turn o take home Corduroy the bear! She was over the moon excited!
She and Corduroy had a snack together outside.
She made them matching bracelets.
And then, after dinner, she took Corduroy on a scooter ride. Not to be left out, Ev's chose one of her stuffies to take along for the ride.
Before turning in for the night, Corduroy and Emma did her online homework together.
The next morning, we had to send Corduroy back to school!
We had our family fun weekend which I already mentioned, but started with terrariums... (you can see more about that weekend a few posts back).
Came home one day to find the cutest striped girl!
A big moment for Em's - we hosted a much anticipated BFF sleepover that started at the trampoline park.
Picked up a few more kids along the way to have even more fun!
We took the kids that were still here on a walk the next morning and the cherry blossom trees were starting to show off.
We met one of the kiddos families for lunch before returning all the kids home!
Dressed and ready to go to her next play date with a plateful of chocolate chip cookies.
The blue skies were lovely - the kids rode their scooters and played outside while we had mexican food, tamales and drinks! This day also marked three years in China!
One day I came home from work and Everly was in her lambie costume - she just looked so darn cute to me that I couldn't help but taking some pictures of my very favorite lambie. Can she just stay this little forever??!!??
Then, for the final days of March, we made an impromptu trip to Thailand in search of some sunshine!!
