March Madness

March is almost over and we're all excited for April to get here. It's been a busy month for all of us and April is looking promising. Andy is doing an internal medicine rotation this month and it has kept him pretty busy. Next month he is going back to the ER where he is happiest so that will be great. We're hoping the weather starts warming up for spring. We haven't had any snow for a while, but the temperature has been pretty cold and last Monday we had the first tornado warning of the season (fortunately, it didn't touch down here). We did get a lot of rain and wind and after the storm blew over, Eden was really excited to go outside and play in her puddle jumpers. She jumped in a "river" in front of our neighbors house and got soaking wet, but loved every minute of it.




We were lucky enough to have good weather a couple Saturdays ago so we went to the zoo. It was a lot of fun. As we were leaving, we asked Eden what her favorite part was and she said she liked the waterfall best, followed by the fish and the ducks. Sometimes I wonder why we take her to the zoo for that...


Eden set her own table all by herself (tablecloth included) the other day and she looked so proud of herself, I had to take a picture. She's done this about 10 times since then.

And for your enjoyment, some more Eden-isms:


Eden made me some juice in her kitchen and told me it was "Lemonaid Molecule Juice"

She put her backpack on and told me she was going to "assembly". I didn't know she knew about assemblies so I asked her where she learned it and and she told me she learned it from "my friends at school". I don't think she has any friends that are in school.

She thinks she can tell time. If we ask her what time it is she looks at the second hand on the clock and says whatever number it is closest to. So it can go from four o'clock to eight o'clock in 20 seconds.

Andy was watchin basketball the other night and she told him she wanted to watch something girls watch, not boys.

This was our conversation Sunday morning:
E: "Mommy, do you want to hear a joke?"
J: "Okay..."
E: "What kind of bunny lives in a cup?"
J: "I don't know"
E: "A carrot bunny" (Lots of laughing) "What do you climb in a tree"
J: "I don't know"
E "Tree stairs" (Lots more laughing)
Now she just needs to come up with some jokes that are funny...

LOVE the Edenisms Jill. They are so clever and just darling. This will be such a great record so you can tell her about them when she's older. So cute!

How cute! A tornado warning, eh? Kinda glad I missed it! :) Those scare me a bit.

I love that Eden's into jokes. So is Emily. She has quite the list of funny ones, but if she runs out, then she'll start making up her own.

Cute!
