The Flint's: March 2009

WHAT DO YOU GET?

Here's what you get...when you climb to the top of the pantry!!

A great big one of these....oh, and some TEARS!!

This was a few days later when the bruising really set in!!

A few suckers take all the pain away!!
We finally got a picture of O riding her bike with daddy chasing behind her to make sure she didn't fall. I can't believe how fast she is growing up!!

Here's her at her swimming lessons. The first session went great and she passed it with flying colors. The next session didn't go as 'swimmingly'. The first day we got there she found out her teacher was a BOY...and that was the end of it. Bribery and bravery pills didn't do the trick so back to the little class with the GIRL teacher. What a stubborn little four year old!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY 2 YOU 2!!

Happy Birthday to my cute little twinnie nieces, Addie and Berks. They hit the 2 year milestone. My sister put on a great 'Owl' party and everything was a success. The girls were hilarious and loved this toy that Aunt Di and the Mepps got them. All the kids were fighting over it.

The Birthday Girls!!

Opening presents!!

Where has the time FLOWN?

Wow, Life has been so CRAZY. I can't believe it's already the middle of March!! We have been one busy family!! YW's has kept me busy. We had planned a huge Carnival of Life activity, which went GREAT but it was a lot of work. It was definitely worth it and I thinks the kids had a good time & I hope they learned something.

Greg taught Liv how to ride a bike with training wheels. She made it around the circle without falling down. Of course, I was gone and he didn't take any pictures. Maybe we'll get one someday.

Greg's sister, Bridgette and her family moved to Texas this week. We are definitely going to miss them but wish them the best of luck down there. With them leaving, Life has been one big party. Lots of dinners, parties, gno's and everything in between. It was so sad to say goodbye. The kids were all sobbing and it just broke your heart. Thank heavens we'll see them in a few weeks in Florida for Spring Break. We inherited their goldfish and Liv named in Mason (after her cousin that just left) We're happy to report he is still ALIVE. Yeah, for us.

It is also a month of BIRTHDAY's for us!! Another month of partying. Greg's dad birthday was on Sunday. Saturday night all the adults went to dinner at Maddox. or THE Maddox, if you grew up in the Flint family. We even got a real babysitter to tend (I think this is like the 2nd or 3rd time) Well, 2 minutes after we walked into the lobby of the restaurant our babysitter called and said little Caleb had thrown up....OH NO!!! We had carpooled with Greg's sister and so we didn't even have a car. Luckily, I called my mom and she was able to go rescue the babysitter. I am so glad that she was able to go and watch the kids. We were then able to have a nice evening with all of Greg's siblings and spouses, and bless the babysitter for cleaning up all the throw up. She only was there for about an hour but we still paid her pretty well for everything she had to do.

Happy Birthday John!!! Thanks for an awesome dinner. The food at Maddox is so delicious and our waiter was great.
Monday was my mom's birthday. We celebrated with dinner and cake on Sunday night. My little bro-in-law's birthday was on Wednesday so we had a big party. Today is Addie and Berks Birthday so we'll party it up tonight again. Then I can post some pics. Thanks heavens it's getting a bit warmer. Bring on Spring.
