March 2014

March is great because it finally starts to get a little warmer.  We learned that all boys need to be entertained for hours is some PVC pip and hot wheels.

And this little guy still likes to remind me he is a little baby, especially when he is sleeping.  Boy is he white!

One of the many block creations in the living room.

Every morning all three boys help Clint make coffee.  It is very ritualistic for all 4 Aichele boys.  There is the smelling of the coffee from the bag, the measuring, water, then the grand finale. . . pressing the start button.  Clint even lets the boys have a cup on Saturday mornings and all three little Aicheles LOVE coffee.

The previous owners of our house left a mini junkyard in the very back.  The neighbor behind us became quite regular about complaining about it because she could see it out her back window.  We of course could see nothing.  Considering that her house cost at least twice as much as ours we understood her complaints.  Clint personally hauled all of the trash out and we took it to the city dump.  It ended up being 1200 lbs of trash!

It finally became warm enough to eat outside.

And Clint and I spent many evenings with a box of wine (we are so classy) watching the sun set at the farm while the kids ran around.  It is one of the few activities where we are all five together but it is still incredibly relaxing.

We love our park lunches.  Our favorite places for our picnic lunches are the botanical gardens and theta pond.  Occasionally we head to couch park though.
