Out Like a Lamb?

In like a lion....out like a lamb? 
Is that the way the saying goes?
Well, whatever the saying, March is OVER!  
And we are ready for spring!! 
Life is chugging along... here's the 
rest of March in a bliggity bloggy nutshell. 
 
 
The whole weekend of St.Patty's was
a party.. from the parade, to
the Bon Jovi concert (I won 
free tickets at work - which was
totally worth it because the people 
watching alone was insane), and we 
celebrated our friend Drew's birthday!
 (Bon Jovi concert at Nationwide arena)
 (Birthday boy at Winkling Lizard for his party!)
 
(We rarely make it out anymore...so we had 
to commemorate this accomplishment :)

We love St.Patrick's day around here. 
And we love parades (well, maybe 
just me, Rob is sort of ehh about them.)
Either way, we were not missing
the Dublin Irish parade this year.  
It was cold (like, run back to the
car for more blankets cold) - but 
worth it to see our hometown 
get turned up!  Dublin knows how
to party for sure.  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
You might think the parade tired us out...
but we still managed to pack in a trip 
to our favorite plant nursery for 
mommy's (not so new) obsession....
PLANT BABIES!
Towards the end of March, the 
weather got really nice - like 
we even saw the appearance of Max
and Papa Rob's legs in shorts! What?! 
It also allowed for the return of 
swinging, ZooKids, and new door art!
 
 
 
We can't talk about the month of March
without mentioning Grandpa's birthday!
We celebrated with dinner at Dewey's 
Pizza...it was so yummy!
I also really appreciated the viewing
window where you can watch their
staff create the pizzas...throwing the 
dough in the air and fistfuls of 
flour at the kids!  Super fun!
We came back to our house after dinner
for butterscotch Pie (from Just Pies!) per
the birthday boy's request. 

This past weekend we got of the house
for an event at Home Depot...building
a bunny box!
 
These (free, free, FREE!!) Home Depot classes are 
such a win-win - Max LOVES them. 
I wish you could all really see him 
wielding the hammer (and then 
Rob's face when it accidentally hits his 
thumb). #priceless  
Max also loves the free enamel pin
that you get with each class...we will surely
have an apron covered in them soon!  
Hit up Tim Horton's for donut holes...all that
hammering and painting requires snacks :)
And coffee for Mama!  
It was a little cool (in the morning) on Saturday...
so we stayed inside and created with
our wrench set. And, played his new game - 
Jumpin' Jack! He loved the game so much - 
he played several rounds by himself :) 
And then ...it was on to the Honey Bee tree
game.  This game is such a pain in the *ss
to set up - but he's come a long way in
playing by the rules - so I guess that's 
something? 
 Warm Sunday weather means visiting
Scioto Park!  This park is such a gem - river
access, playground, and amphitheatre!
We were here for almost two hours - 
and throwing rocks for a good hour. 
Max kept saying, "you fill me up Mama!"
(which just means, find me more rocks) :)
 Man, I was trying to so hard to get a good 
picture of us both jumping in the air. 
Max didn't really get my artistic vision....
and I could never get the timing just right. 
But, here are some hilarious outtakes :)
 
 
 
 I love this last one...but Max had already run past
the camera!
We rounded out Sunday by walking to  
get pizza from our neighborhood joint...
Carlucci's....where in true three year old 
fashion...Max whined "I only like the pizza
at Miss Jessi's house. Cool, cool, cool. 
You do you, buddy. Imma eat this delicious pizza. 

I leave you with this gratuitous selfie
from Max.  Homeslice still likes
his own mug the best.  And, he 
likes to be holding the phone/camera
all on his own.  Like the independent almost
four year old he his.  
If he can hold a camera, he can 
certainly start wiping his own behind, 
#amiright??
What a smug mug. 
happy monday, yo!

xoxo
