Winter Fun

There's something about a fresh blanket of new fallen snow to bring out the playfulness in all of us. Especially when the wind subsides and the sun comes out! Kids are so photogenic!

Did he really make this catch or is he simply posing???

Maybe Abby has more of her father in her than we thought!

What a smile!

There's quite a bit of mischeviousness behind that grin!

Shadow's never far away from the kids - they love him!

On Saturday, the whole gang arrived to celebrate Matthew's (1/12) and Noah's (1/31) birthdays. The gail force winter winds kept them all inside (dogs and all), but the extra room made it much easier. The boys are really into playing Batman and Robin, hence the cakes. When present time arrived, Matthew seemed to be in a mad race to open his before Noah and keep them in "his" pile! It was a great evening and the boys loved it all.

January Freeze

Although the temperature's been rather frightful, the snow looks quite delightful. On a rare "warm" day the kids finally got out to enjoy the snow!

Happy 3rd Birthday Matthew!

So sweet, but not always so innocent!

Who can growl louder?

Hello Matthew!

Noah can't wait for Matthew to open his gift!

I can't believe how fast time flies. Matthew is 3! We celebrated with just the five of us, but he loved it all. He loves Scooby Doo (esp. "A Pup Named Scooby Doo") and that's about the only TV he likes to watch. Matthew does like to play superheroes with Noah, though, and he loved his new Batman Cave. Although, I think Noah showed more excitement! While all three played with his new toy, Mike andI looked at pictures from Abby and Noah's 3rd birthday. They grow so fast! Three is such a great age - the perfect blend of little baby and little boy!
