When the kids want to exercise with me I turn on Just Dance on the Wii and let the boys pick the songs we dance to. My rule is if they don't dance with me, then I stop and go downstairs on my treadmill instead. So this is them dancing their hearts out. :)
I bought myself a tent! Our little four person tent does not fit our family anymore. We tried using it with all five of us last year and it was a little miserable. This new tent is a nine person tent that is super easy to set up with even just one person and is tall enough to walk around in. I LOVE it and can't wait to take it camping this summer!
Tessa is still an excellent little mommy to all of her dolls. She feeds them (and herself) imaginary food, "washes" the doll dishes before putting them away, and will put her babies down for naps. It's so fun watching her in her own little world.
We were eating dinner one night playing a game where they list three different types on things in the group Jason tells them. They started getting pretty silly, so I had to record their cuteness.
We still love the Curiosity Museum and go there quite often when we get stir crazy.

Bennett insisted that the doctor had to wear glasses during the whole examination.
Whenever I am sitting, I get dog-piled on with kids. I am glad they like to be near me, but it sure makes it hard to get back up again. (Cooper pictured)
Another time at the Curiosity Museum. Tessa played with this sand table nearly the whole time we were there.
I rearranged the car seats so I could reach all the kids a little easier to buckle and hand out food/water. The first time they all sat down Cooper exclaimed "Look! We can all hold hands now!" I am so glad that my kids love each other. :) (Cooper in middle, Bennett on left)
Walking home after church. This dress and jacket are some of the adorable clothes Grandma Sharp bought for Tessa's birthday so I had to document.
We have one o'clock church, which makes it really hard for Tessa since that is exactly during her nap time. She started falling asleep at the table waiting for her food and Jason laid her down on the couch to sleep.
Yet another time at the Curiosity Museum. Are you noticing a trend? :) It was a GORGEOUS St. Patricks Day and we only had a little time before heading home for me to baby sit my neighbor's baby so we went directly outside.
Cooper on the zip line.
Bennett climbing the spider web.
All three checking out the fish.
The boys discovered that the big rocks we have in our backyard break apart when dropped on the cement. Unfortunately, Tessa's toe got crushed by one of the rocks. The rock shards are sharp and it sliced her toenail in half. Luckily it was a pretty shallow cut and stopped bleeding quickly.
Bennett: I am a princess. Do you want to touch my really long hair?
On March 19th, Bennett gave his first talk in Primary
And Cooper shared the 4th Article of Faith. They definitely are not scared of the microphone. The were basically yelling into it. But they both did really well.
Tessa picked out her dress up clothes by herself for the Curiosity Museum stage.
Cooper, the dino-knight
A sunny day calls for Farm Country.

Tessa checking out the chickens.
Cooper giving me a pedicure...
...while Tessa styles my hair. It was like a mom spa! And yes, Tessa crawled up on my shoulders all by herself so she could get up close and personal with my hair.
One night the boys decided they wanted to sleep downstairs. We figured they could give it a shot. Both of them actually slept the whole night in their chosen spots!
Bennett slept on the floor in the front room.
And Cooper picked the living room couch.
