March Madness!

Despite the week starting with A LOT of rain on Monday, we had a really fun week.
Monday we spent inside and played with a lot of stickers. We even got creative...
Notice, he even had one on his belly button.
We did some of our normal things (play group and the library) and even were able to start enjoying the backyard again. Harrison pushed around his car and collected all the weeds aka "flowers" in the backyard.
He had a pretty nice collection by the time he was done.
I think my favorite thing is that he knows the door opens, yet he still climbs over the other side. He even opens the door but still climbs in.
Thursday was St. Patrick's Day, which I love! Maybe because I have some Irish in me or maybe because I just love holidays. Either way, we started the day with a special breakfast with a lot of green and Irish Scones. I love them and need to make them more often!
Harrison isn't so sure about the green apple sauce though!
Then we decided to make a trip to the zoo. We finally hopped on the bandwagon and got the annual pass. We love the zoo, although a trip during spring break was a BAD idea! We only stayed for 2 hours and it was so crowded. We are going back soon when all the kids have gone back to school. Anyone else want to come? Here are just a few pictures from the day. I didn't stop for too many pictures...too many people!
Pointing out the Nemo fish.
The new rhino exhibit
And the elephants. Our favorite stop every time.
And of course, we can't have a week in March without some basketball games. We have all filled out brackets and Harrison is tied for first with mommy (at least right now!). He is loving the games and finding things to do while he watches. And we are loving watching BYU...sweet sixteen, here we come. Although it would mess up our brackets, we would love to have them here in Houston for the Final Four. Go Cougars!
We also made our debut trip to the Splash Pad for the season. We are excited to go back soon (probably this week if it is going to be in the 80s) and are excited for spring! We went with one of Harrison's best friend Sam and they both ran around loving all the water. I'll try to remember the camera next time.

Love it! Harrison looks so cute in his little car. I can't believe how big he is. Adorable!
