I was planning on making an advent calendar with fun things to do the first 25 days of December but when I saw this post from the Artful Parent I decided that instead of the traditional advent with the little doors, I would make mine out of gingerbread paper dolls. I just did it really [...]
HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Here are some pictures of Halloween at school this week of Ethan and Jamie with their friends (Ben has been sick since Wed so he just gets one day of Halloween today).
I LOVE LOVE LOVE Halloween and I’ll be sad when its over. It is definitely my favorite holiday. I love having the [...]
I never got around to posting about Ethan’s birthday party, probably because I hardly took any pictures at all, but I figured I better get to it before Jillian’s birthday gets here! There is Ethan in the orange shirt, its the ONLY pictures that I got of him during the entire party! What a cute [...]
Oh I LOVE fall (yes even these CHILLY fall days this week)! Here are the kids at 3 different local farms, last week seeing animals and getting pumpkins and yesterday on a trip to pick apples. I actually got a bunch of pictures with all 4 together! Ethan is so good holding Jillian and Ben [...]
John was gone with the boys (and Alex) for 4 days last week but luckily he took a lot of pictures! I am so glad they had fun visiting Grandma Penguin and the lake. We will all be going and spending a week there soon and these pictures are getting me excited thinking of the [...]
Ben and Jamie really liked their party yesterday and I’m so happy! I think we had 19 kids, 2 babies and 15 adults. This was the EASIEST party that we have ever had for our kids! We had it at the roller rink during “trike trot and roll” time where the kids can use skates [...]
Here is the birthday boy on each of his birthdays:
Baby Ben all 9lbs 10oz of cuteness!
Ben looking like a cupie doll with his first birthday cake!
Grandma got him a big wheel for his 2nd birthday, its pretty worn out now.
Ooh we started a Chuck E Cheese tradition on his 3rd birthday, we’ll be there tonight!
On [...]
Our little girl turned 3 today! Its tradition to start the day with cinnamon rolls with candles (apparently candles in the 3 big kids’ pizza and individual slices of cake might be a new tradition we’ve added this year). She had a fun weekend with the airshow yesterday, the UP movie, Joey’s and swimming today [...]
Ooh it was cold just watching them! John had the boys dive to the bottom to get the thermometer and it said 55! At one point the top of the water was in the low 70s but the kids do NOT take after me when it comes to swimming in cold water. I can’t wait [...]
Yes we went sledding again today and we had the place to ourselves the entire time! Jillian went to grandma’s house so I got to do a little sledding this time. Jamie got to go solo a few times since we didn’t have to worry about other people crashing into her. I think we’ll be [...]
