Say What??!

Ryan: "Mom, I don't really know if I want to go to heaven. I mean, I kinda like it here."

Say What??!

How you NEVER want your Monday morning to begin...

Julia: Mommy, blankie just got all wet. I accidentally dropped it in the toilet kinda. But just a little bit. Or maybe lots wet."

"ME AND MY SISTER ARE HAVING A TEA PARTY"

"ME AND MY SISTER ARE PLAYING ROCKS"

Ry hearts the school nurse!

Our little guy LOVES the school nurse...He's visited her nearly everyday for the last few weeks.  After the note he brought home tonight, we are really going to have to put the kaboosh on this nonsense! 

Our New Pet...

...Ants!

No, we aren't too crazy..they have a "cage"!

We ordered our ants from a facility in Arizona. They will live 2-4 weeks and we are to feed them vegetables or fruit every 3 days.  They've been busy at work tunneling in their new home...and our newest pasttime is watching them work!

Julia Celebrates 4!

I'm a big girl now!

Ry and Mason have a blast posing.

The dads..Jeff, Matt and Josh.

Jake, Izzy and Julia stop moving just long enough for me to snap a photo.

Krista and Taran.

So, another failure in the photo department...my camera battery went dead, so most of the pics I did take were fuzzy.  For more, visit Krista's blog. 

Happy Birthday!

Happy 4 and 34!

Valentine's Day in Kindergarten

My favorite kindergartener!

Our favorite teacher!

The class pet mice.

Build-A-Kitty

Aunt Stacy had a great idea to bring Julia to Build-A-Bear for her birthday.

Ry got some special time with Aunt Stacy too riding the escalator. =)

Banana Republic's newest model.
And on another note, really!? This is what is hot for spring?
(The statue...my statue boy is pretty good looking. hehe).

Kindergarten Musical

Uncle Patrick and Aunt Crystal wait excitedly for the program to begin.

Julia and Uncle Patrick goofing around taking a break from making princess dresses during the event.

The musical was sweet.  Our little guy is in the center of this photo surrounded by his classmates.
We failed in an epic way in the photo department--somehow with two still cameras and a digital camera this is about all we have to show for tonights memories...eek!

DIY Wall Collage

"Mommy, I put some stickers on the wall in the living room. It needed some love in there." 

Talent

Ry shows off his moves.

We are SO proud. =)

Let it Snow!

WOW.  We woke up to this today.  I heart snow days!
(It's actually deeper than this in some areas...but I was barefoot and couldn't lean out the door any further!). 

Gram's Bears

Tonight we met Gram and Papa, Patrick and Crystal out for dinner at Bigelo's Bistro, one of our favorite local eateries.  Gram brought a surprise with her for the kids--these bears she crocheted. She had given Ryan his when he was a baby, and last night she gave him the sweater for his bear. She gave Julia her own bear with sweater and hairbow.  Can you tell they are excited?  

Happy 4th Birthday, Tyler!

Tyler and Julia have a special cousin relationship, born just 6 weeks apart.

We had a fun day celebrating Tyler turning 4 by bouncing around.  Check out pics at Ruddology.
