Latest and Greatest

Oh, January.  Can I say that I'm not a fan?  We've had -20 degree windchill which caused school to be cancelled last Thursday and snow that caused school to be cancelled on Friday.  To battle cabin fever we have gone with friends to the movies and had our den meeting despite the chilly temps.


Well, we all know that my kids love sleeping on my bedroom floor.  Shadow has been sleeping in her crate, but in the morning when Mike gets up she runs upstairs to cuddle.

Ava's writing skills have improved so much this year!  I love this little note that she wrote to Carter: You best boy I met.  She drew a little picture of a skull that is on his backpack.  How sweet and loving!

Although we have had really chilly days, thankfully we have been able to get out and play in the snow.  Dawson and Carter are the heartiest, while Ava spends about 20 minutes in the snow and then she is done.

The kids have set up a "lab" in the blue room.  Everyone has a desk and they even made a little changing area between the dressers with a blanket and chip clips.  Seriously, one of the kids favorite toys? chip clips.  I can never find one because they are always being used to create forts, hideouts, spy caves and now changing areas.

Funny Carter Story:
Recently Carter told Mike that his top ten healthy food list  included spaghetti and chicken noodle soup.  So obviously Mike asked him "What else is on your top ten list, that's only two things.  Carter's answer:  that's it.  Nothing else on my healthy food list.

I think that's it for now!  Enjoying my sweet kids despite the cabin fever!
