First day of Pre K 2014!

Here's Lena chatting about PreK this morning before school and then at 12 when I picked her up :-)  LOVE this place.

interview with L & J

Here's a video.

back from blogging hiatus.

I needed a bit of time off from blogging.  I'm back for now... we'll see if it lasts.

Here's a cute video of Cole at almost 13 months :-)

That's all for today :-)

Some things we do in the winter

Here are some things we do during winter:

- put on coats and hats and gloves and boots
- take off coats and hats and gloves and boots
- shiver
- put wood in the woodburning stove
- put more wood in the woodburning stove
- try to load all the kids in the van when the side doors are all frozen shut
- dream of warmer weather

We do some other things too I guess.  And at least when there's snow Mike and Lena get days off from school which is fun.  And Lena and James make up jokes now that they think are funny, Bubby's take on knock-knock jokes is particularly amusing (see below).

Here are some videos of each kid and 1 picture of Cole at Ikea having fun:

 

2014 thus far

Heyyyyyyyy.  Sorry I've been MIA for awhile.  

Moving on.

Here's some videos and a picture or two:

Stuck in the Polar Votex people.... HELP!

 Cute Cole

And there you have it.  Lena and James are best buds and super chatt-y.  Cole loves food now and is crawling all over (using the elbows&toes method, which is funny).  Lena takes ballet class every Thursday.  James is obsessed with construction vehicles.  Cole has all the hair.  It's so cold and snowy and I can't wait for SPRING.

The end.
