St. Patty's Day!!

Contrary to this blog page, we are not Irish, but as some of you may know, Mommy loves St. Patrick's Day. She may have even become a little obsessed. Mommy, Daddy, and Preston all got new green shirts for St. Patty's Day and Mommy also made a very green meal last night. Today, Daddy took off a couple hours of work to join Mommy and Preston for the parade.
Mommy made some green bread in the bread maker It looked so delicious, Preston had to have some immediately!

Green pears
Green beans
Green chicken/broccoli alfredo sauce- I know, it looks kinda gross, but it wasn't that bad!

Green noodles
Green Jello
Green slushie (lime sherbert + 7up)- Preston had green milk.
The whole green meal
Yummy- and yes, his poop was green today :)

And for dessert....Green rice krispie bars- Daddy's favorite!
Scrumptious!

P-Bear loves to watch the mail truck drive around our cul-de-sac and deliver mail. This was after he threw an hour long tantrum because Mommy accidentally said we were going to go outside to the parade today..he thought that was immediately. Oh, and after he threw multiple tantrums because he wanted to do dishes. Every time we run water or go near the sink, he thinks we are doing dishes and pushes the chair over to "help us." I just avoided the sink the entire day today because the tantrums were just too much for Mommy!

Preston and Daddy watching the parade
Mommy was bummed that it was too cold to show off his St. Patty's Day t-shirt, but we found this sweatshirt, and everyone around us thought it was adorable :)
Mommy and Preston
The parade lasted an hour and a half! He sat for the first hour, and then we let him get down and run around, which he loved! He was dancing to the music, catching beads, and chasing down dogs.
I like this picture because our little monster looks so little compared to the rest of the crowd :) And it shows off his tail!

This little monster was TIRED! He slept on the way home, but wouldn't lay down for a nap when we got home. He got a whopping 20 min nap today...FUN!

Instead of sleeping, we read this St. Patrick's Day book.
Happy St. Patrick's Day from the Eichmeier's!
