March was a big month for us this year!
One morning the kids and I had fun playing with the camera on my phone.
We had fun doing hairstyles. The girls are being better about letting me do it lately, which is LOVELY.
Dallin went through a short phase of being a stinker about eating breakfast. On this morning he would only eat if Brianna stayed sitting next to him on the chair in our room. That phase seems to have passed, at least for the moment.
Dallin fell in love with this tiny baby doll and liked to wrap her up and put her in the bassinet prepared for the new baby.
I got to go out to dinner with some gal pals at Carrabba's to celebrate new baby girl.

We went out for dinner for my dad's birthday and afterwards we had carrot cake that I made for him. We used a sparkler for his candle!
Maya had a school field trip to the Children's Discovery Museum. My friend sent me a few pictures of her adventures there.
Maya had her school pictures taken. She's so cute! When she saw the photo she said, "Wait...that's not where I was!" Haha - the power of a green screen!
I had gone out with a friend to get a pedicure one evening and when I got home and took off my sock all the toenails on one foot were ruined because they hadn't dried all the way. I was super bummed!! I called the salon and was able to go back in to get them touched up. I did just that, but had to take all of my kids with me. Thankfully it only took about 10-15 minutes; the girls were watching the TV that was on mute and Dallin intently watched the woman paint my toenails.
More hairs!
Dallin and that doll again...
More fun with the camera - the chubby cheeks are cute haha!
We went on a walk while I was in early labor with the new baby. There was a train and Dallin enjoyed getting to see it so close.
Lydia Elise arrived! By far the highlight of our month!
While I was in the hospital with Lydia the girls got to have some time with their Browning cousins. I'm so glad that the dates coincided so that my kids had something to do while I was indisposed.
All eight cousins on the Duggins side.
She is such a sweet baby!
After one day and night of cluster feeding (pretty sure it's of the devil) I stuck a pacifier in this girl's mouth. She took it with no hesitation and I am completely thrilled.
After her first bath. Her umbilical cord only took four days to fall off so she got a nice warm actual bath.
Aunt Lisa came to visit for a day. I appreciated her help with the kids and random things around the house.
They love their sister so much!
A moment of quiet solitude. It doesn't happen much.
We are pretty cool cats, if I do say so myself.
Fun hair for church.
Dallin snuggled up to me while I was nursing. He lay on my shoulder and played with Lydia's hair while she ate. These are the moments I treasure with my little flock.
