March Recap Via Instagram

We started off March by celebrating Dr. Seuss' birthday!
 I sorted pennies at Grant's school for their annual penny drive.
 We had fun at a friend's birthday party!
 I ran two miles! This was a great time for me at the beginning of March, but today I did two miles in 21 mins!
 Our chicks started turning into chickens:)
 Eli got a splinter in his knee....
...and it got infected which meant a trip to the doctor!
 Henry did a little maintenance on the chicken coop... definitely a job for a boy!
 Eli did not want to take his meds!
 We adopted two baby bunnies that Phoebe brought up to the house. I bottle fed them for a couple days, but they didn't make it:(
 Our afternoons were filled with soccer practices!
 Grant had field day on a gorgeous sunny day!
We celebrated Pi Day {3/14} with a chicken pot pie:)
 I made rainbow oatmeal for the boys for St. Patrick's Day...can you tell I love holidays.
 I got Parent of the Year from Grant's school.
 I spent the day in the PTO room sorting shirts for Henry's field day.
 We spent the weekend working on the garden and the fence to keep the critters out.
 We ate dinner at Olive Garden and I resisted the temptation to eat a million calories of fettuccine alfredo!
Typical Sunday morning in my preschool S.S. class.
 I made P cookies for Eli's P party at school. They got to were pajamas and they ate pizza and drank punch:)
 Henry and his friend Hayden doing the three legged race at field day.
 Easter treats for the boys' classes. I made about 70 of these cute marshmallow pops.
 Eli wearing his bunny shirt at his class Easter egg hunt.
 Onions growing in the garden.
Dyeing eggs! We used muffin tins this year, and it will be a new tradition! 
 The Easter Bunny came to our house and brought candy, swimsuits, and Hexbugs!

Rainbow Oatmeal for St. Patrick's Day

Two out of three of my boys love oatmeal...the other takes a little bit of coaxing and he will normally eat about half a bowl. But when I put this bowl of rainbow oatmeal in front of him it took way less convincing to get to him to eat his oatmeal! St. Patrick's Day is such a fun holiday, and I've made quite a few different rainbow treats to celebrate over the years. But this year St. Patrick's Day falls on a Sunday which means we will be short on time to make fun treats since we will be running around trying to get to church on time. I decided to make some healthy oatmeal and add a little bit of a St. Patty's Day twist with a couple shakes from my sprinkle stash:)
Raid your sprinkle stash {or buy a couple bottles of sprinkles in all the colors of the rainbow}!
 Fix up your kiddos' favorite oatmeal and then simply add the sprinkles on in the shape of rainbow.
They turned out so pretty, and once your kiddos mix the sprinkles into their warm oatmeal, their whole bowl will be colorful!
 Our fun rainbow oatmeal even got this oatmeal non-lover to smile!
