Sick Day

Posted 1 year, 7 months ago at 9:13 pm.

Two sick “mama’s boys” attached to me much of the day. Ezra says “Mama, will you sit and snuggle me?” How can anyone resist that:)  They are basically just running fevers, Ezra has a bit of congestion but that’s about it. 

Tobin fell asleep on the couch-he NEVER does this.  I tried transporting him to his crib but he came out a few minutes later.

Bus Stop Adventure

Posted 1 year, 7 months ago at 9:50 pm.

Fridays are the only day that I seem to actually have to walk all the kids to the bus stop so we’ve been trying to make an adventure out of it (rather than me complaining about taking small children out in the cold so early!). So, I get them all in their snow pants & gear and we walk to the bus stop. Today we borrowed the neighbors sled and I pulled them for a bit on the way home and then we came in for hot chocolate. I figure if I have to get them bundled up I may as well get them some play time in.

The neighbor girls in their matching hats-love them!

And, Ezra returning the sled

Bridget & Nate

Posted 1 year, 7 months ago at 9:38 pm.

Had a little photo shoot this morning. I told Ezra the names of the kids coming and he says “hmmm, Bridget, she goes to MOPs”.  I was impressed that he would remember and that he would know which church/Bible program she was a part of (because he’s involved in 4 I think!).  As always, I learned a bunch!  I definitely have to re-think toddlers, Nate is 18 months old and a mover so I need to figure out how to work better with that.  He was sooo sweet, part of the challenge was that he wanted to sit on my lap and read books:)  Bridget was a piece of cake!  Here are a few

This one just makes me laugh! She’s having a princess birthday party tomorrow

The serious look

and the silly look

I only left him alone for a minute!

Well, maybe a few minutes.  This was caused by about 8 chocolate chips!

Lauren visits

Posted 1 year, 7 months ago at 9:45 pm.

Lauren took her nap at our house today (or perhaps she didn’t -we’re not sure) so Mary could volunteer in Ben’s class this afternoon. I’m still after those dimples!

Tobin & Lauren having a chat, it’s so weird seeing our two babies “talking” to each other
