March 2013

March was a busy month with house showings and us going to look at more houses.  In January, we took a close look at our finances and decided that I was going to need to go back to work.  Even if we did not move to a bigger house, it was no longer possible for me to keep staying at home.  It was such a hard and sad decision for me but it needed to be done, so I started the application process for teaching positions in the fall.

Here are some fun shots of the kids from this month:

Silly sock day

 A silly picture in a new outfit from Nana:

 Nathan and the rest of my family ran the Little Rock Half Marathon again.  Nathan ran a personal best and won our family trophy!

 Mallory started trying some solid foods.  Here is the first try of egg yolk.  It was a hit:)

 Our family did Marleigh's Diabetes March again.  They did moustache face painting:)

 A fun new Matilda Jane outfit for Spring.

 A chilly before school picture.  I sure love these cuties!

 In an effort to prepare her for daycare in the fall, Mallory started a 2 day a week MDO program.  Here she is on her first day.

We also had a nice staycation for Spring Break.  No luck selling our house at this point, but we kept hoping an offer would come soon!
