Valentine

Parker's class was given a homework assignment to decorate hearts for the February bulletin board at school.

Here is Parker's valentine ...

Relaxing with Daddy ...

Tin Can Robot

Today, Parker and I made a Motorized Tin Can Robot!

Trust me, it wasn't as easy as it looks!

But it was SO worth it in the end!

Snack Time!!

Look who is trying to climb out of his highchair already ...

Snow Day Crafts

We are on day 2 of a no-school snow day. School has also been called off again for tomorrow. The older 2 were bored and decided to head up to Jaz's room to do crafts. Hearing them getting along so well and for so long as they both were busy making crafts is a rarity in this house. I smiled as I heard them working away. I smiled even bigger when I saw what they had made for me!

Tissue Paper Bouquet:And Parker made this car all by himself!:

Seriously, how creative are these 2 kids?!?!

I just LOVE them!!

Snow Day

We woke up to 4 inches of snow this morning.

School (and even Sean's job) were called off.

The roads were really icy and it was cold .... VERY cold!

The boys and I headed out to play for a few this afternoon.

Jaz decided it was too cold to come out and play.

I can't say that I blamed her.

I really didn't want to get out either and I only did for the sake of the boys (and for pictures).

Parker had an ABSOLUTE blast playing in the snow, even when he looked like he had turned into a popsicle!

Although this wasn't Easton's 1st snow, it was his first time actually out in it!

He didn't really quite know what to think about it.

He just kind of stood where ever he was put down and watched Parker play.

14 Month Portraits

This is my new FAVORITE picture of sweet little E!

I decided it had been a while since Easton has had a formal photo shoot, so we took a few minutes yesterday afternoon to capture a few quick pictures of him. I just love how the camera captured so many of his cute little expressions! Even the "outtakes" turned out adorable and really show his personality.

... and now he was ready for a few "formal" shots:
