Springtime Fun!
Today was really busy! It started off with Brian going to another Lowes Build and Grow events, where he built a monster truck! While at the Lowes, Brian really wanted to get some flowers to take home, and Brandon said that would be okay. He picked out a red geranium, some yellow and red pansies, and a pink gerbera daisy.

I was proud of his initiative, but had secretly been wanting cute present-opening-in-PJs pictures. We went to get Kendall, who was looking so cute and happy in her crib this morning, then we all headed downstairs and had breakfast first. While I was getting it ready, we played a game in which...
