Snow Day

The snow is coming down today. We're having a REAL at home snow day. What do we do on a snowy day like today???

We take long naps (under the kitchen table) -


We watch the snow come down from the comforts of the nice warm house -


We take extra long baths -


We wash dishes -


We make Valentine treats for school -

Jacob

Jacob is my best friend. He lives on the next street over. We’ve been friends since we moved here. We love to hang out and more importantly get in trouble together. We started school together in September where we give the teachers a run for their money. We love to wrestle, especially during circle time which is a big no-no and usually gets us separated. We also play at playgroup and sometimes, have pizza parties together. In the summer we go to the beach, park, zoo, you name it!

At nighttime during prayers, mommy talks about all the things we are thankful for that happened that day. I’ve started doing my own version of the prayers when she is done. It usually goes like this “I play with Jacob and I have fun with Jacob and I am thankful for Jacob, Amen.” Even on days I don’t see Jacob, this is what I say.

Jacob is on vacation right now. My babysitter, Angie, is also on vacation right now. I deduced that they are on vacation together which strikes me as odd considering I’ve never noticed that they were even friends. Oh well. I can’t wait for Jacob to get back from vacation.

"Little Girl"

I was looking thru old video and found this one. I only post it because Luke says "little girl" in the begining and it is so darn cute. The rest of the video isn't too exciting..

When does football season start??

It's never too early to start...

Goodbye Mullet...

As much fun as we've had making fun of poor little Paige and her mullet, we couldn't take it any longer. Paige got her first haircut this week. She was such a good girl. Loved every minute it...

Pre-cut, out of control mullet -

I'm already lovin' my new bob. Gotta call all my friends and tell them the good news -

Birthday Party..

The birthday parties never end! Last weekend we had a birthday celebration with all Luke's friends. Since they are all Dec/Jan birthday's we do a joint party for them all. This year it was at Luke's friend Katie's house. So fun! Paige even joined in on the fun and since she is a Dec baby too got to celebrate as well!!

We did "the couch picture" as we always do. Luke lasted 3 seconds before he went AWOL, as usual. I am happy to report that I do have one child that will sit nice for the camera.

More walking...

It's official - I'm walking!!!

Xmas fun!!

I know this is a bit old but we just got our computer up and running and I'm downloading all the video. I had to post this one. Looks like Christmas at the Parent's got a little out of hand this year....and this video doesn't even show the worst of it :)
