Family Time

We went on a quick trip to visit family. As usual, the photos are only of the kids.


First the kids discovered the chair opens and closes.


This was more fun than we would have predicted.


Then we went outside to feed the geese. He was brave and got close to them.


She wasn't as brave, but practiced her throwing skills.


We walked to a local elementary school and the kids played. They loved the bouncing horsies. It was colder than we expected, so we all borrowed sweaters. It was a fun trip and the kids still remember it.

So Proud

Sweet Son just picked up a book that has never been read to him and sounded out each word and read the entire book. No encouragement, no help, just to make himself happy. This is just awesome!


On the other hand, Sweet Daughter is proud because she can fart louder than Sweet Son.

March Randomness

This is just a collection of randomness that didn't fit with anything else this month. Randomness sums up most of our days around here. haha

 
 Wonderful husband let me sleep in and when I came out this is what I found. They used balloons, paper towel rolls, pipe cleaners, and markers to make... stuff. 

Making egg salad

Here you see the kids wearing headphones. We started planning a big trip to take the kids to meet the rest of their family in Poland. We also planned side trips to Italy and Germany. We got these for the flights. They fit the kids properly, they can't be turned up too loudly (thus preventing hearing damage), and they like the cute animals. This was just a picture of them trying them on for the first time. Then we put them away and they were so excited to see them when it was finally time for the trip.

The Christmas spirit is still going, even in March.
