Last month, the company that publishes the Octonauts books had a special offer where you could buy a book and have it autographed by the author. We surprised Mara and Jack by getting them both a book. They were thrilled to get them, and Mara keeps reading both of the books over and over.

The kids were being silly tonight and kept getting up to dance to the music on Disney Junior. Since the picture doesn't do it justice, I had to take a movie of them dancing as well. (You can even hear Jack talking/singing along with the TV.)

We bought Mara a tomato plant a couple of months ago, and it has produced several tomatoes so far. It looks really sad right now because it took a couple of spills thanks to some storms right after we got it, but it looks like it's finally starting to bounce back.

Jack shares Mara's love for Little Einsteins. Even though he hasn't watched it nearly as much as she has, he has started singing along with the opening song and even does the "Pat, pat, pat. Blastoff!"

We stopped by Target tonight to get a few things and decided to get Jack a pair of big boy underpants. He's shown some interest in potty training, but we're not going to really try to train him until after our road trip this summer. He was so proud of them, though, and I think it helped that he picked them out himself.

We celebrated Allie's fourth birthday today at Michael's. The kids had a blast making masks, and Jack hasn't wanted to put his down since making it. After the party, we went to visit John's parents.

We stopped by Diane's house today to check on her cats. While we were outside, we found part of an eggshell. When we looked up, we found a dove sitting on her nest.
