March has brought great weather these past few days. I don't know if it's because we had a really rough winter that no-one was expecting, but spring fever has definitely gripped us all. I love the crisp mornings with the woodpeckers waking us up and the cardinals darting all over the yard.
Zoe is about 95% potty trained, and can go most days without any accidents. Yeah! Caleb isn't as aware, and too many mornings I've risked the traffic and brought them into day care in underwear, only to have Caleb get right up to the door and puddle, poor thing.
We transitioned out of the cribs. Yeah! We went with the tiny toddler beds (given the size of their room) rather than straight to the twin beds. The strangest thing is that the kids seem to think that they can't get out of the beds without mommy or daddy in the room. When they want something right after we put them down (the inevitable water or extra hugs and kisses or pee-pee again), they'll holler at us rather than get up and leave the room. Not that I'm complaining. Anyone need a crib?
Caleb isn't the greatest at steering his brand new retro Radio Flyer tricycle...the exact same model that we've all known and loved for at least 50 years. These things are bomb proof, and weigh a ton!

T&F are having a great time all together on the trike...Big T looking for F to do all the work, though...
After realizing that Zoe is a total adrenaline junkie and likes to careen as fast as possible on her trike, we instituted a "helmet at all times" rule. She has NO fear. Even with the little hills, she likes pedaling around the block on the sidewalk.
Overall, the play date with T&F was a huge success. The kids are only about a month apart....and it's only taken about a year to get them all together again even though the two sets of parents live less than an hour apart. We were commiserating and giving mucho thanks that none of us had quads. Truly, I cannot imagine and hats off to folks who have triplets or quads!!
Zoe is particularly enamored with the blue comforter set, but refuses to sleep under it, preferring her blankets like in the crib. 
Caleb is a fan of his bed a well, and likes to snuggle entirely under all the covers (just like I did as a kid). We're happy he's taken to having a pillow, as it helps his breathing and asthma issues, especially when he has a cold. We had some doozies of colds this month, which are thankfully gone.
Little goofers. Zoe's new game is that she loves to pretend to be asleep and fake snore to make everyone giggle.
