Wii night

And we ended the evening with a little Wii!






Hi Nicholas!


The girls were getting a little silly at this point!!! They got to stay up way past their bed time!!!

The Baker theatre!

It was so cute to see the play the kids put on!! They were very creative and had a lot of fun!!!

Pizza Night

A couple weekends ago we had the Froehle's over for a Pizza/Wii night! The kids got to make their own pizzas! They all had fun and enjoyed eating the pizza! :) The kids entertained us as well by putting on a play--they even made us tickets! It was too cute!!

Dress Up!

Froehle's came to deliver our girl scout cookies and stayed to play for a while! The kids sure had fun with the dress up clothes! Even Nicholas! :)

Aerogarden Update!

It has been 2 weeks since I planted my Aerogarden! Look at all those herbs coming up! From L to R starting in the back it is: Mint, Italian Basil, Dill, Thyme and in the Front: Parsley, Purple Basil and Chives! I can't wait to be able to use them!!

More outside fun!

Abby loves playing outside! We can't wait for Spring! Hopefully it comes sooner rather than later!!




Nicholas had fun outside too until....

I just happened to be taking a picture right as he was going over! He slipped and fell down right into a patch of icy snow! My poor little guy!!

He had little puncture marks on his nose and above his lip! It looks much better now!

Tunnel

It was such a beautiful weekend! We enjoyed playing in the snow on Saturday! Miles dug the kids a tunnel in the backyard! And of course they loved that!!

Stickers!

Abby LOVES stickers! She sits at the table almost everyday coloring and stickering up lots of paper! :)

Oh Nicholas!

Nicholas keeps us very entertained!! He was playing peek a boo with the hat!!

My Aerogarden!

I love my new Aerogarden!! I received this from The Pampered Chef as a reward for my sales last year!! (I love my PC business!!) :) It came with a herb seed kit that we planted last week! They are already growing well! I'll have to post some updated pictures soon! The kids have fun checking it too to see how much the plants have grown overnight! I can't wait to start using my fresh herbs!! So if anyone needs mint, parsley, basil (purple & italian), dill, or thyme--you know where to go!! I'm sure I'll have more than I need!

fun in the snow #2

A couple more from outside. The snow was so wet and sticky that Nick's glove kept falling off because it was so weighted down with snow!


Abby's Snow Angel

And of course we had to have hot cocoa with marshmellows when we came in!

Fun in the SNOW!

We got outside to play last week when it was so nice out!! The kids had a blast!

Nick's 1st Dentist Visit!

Nicholas had his 1st Dentist Visit last week also! And if it were up to him....it would be his LAST!! Oh boy, what a tramatic experience for him!! He didn't want ANYONE touching anywhere near his mouth!! He didn't want to sit in the big chair so I held him in my lap while the hygenist cleaned his teeth. Then the dentist came and applied the flouride goo... He was not impressed! Even after he was all done he wandered around the office whining--what a day!!! Hopefully in 6 months he won't remember this and be just fine! I can only hope!! :)


He was happy to get a new toothbrush! He does love brushing his own teeth--as long as he can do it himself!!! VERY independent!!

This is what he did while we were waiting for Abby.... Oh Nicholas!! :)

Visit to the Dentist!

Last week Abby had her 6 month dental check up! She did great! She even sat in the big chair all by herself! They had sunglasses to wear--even a little Nintendo DS to play with!! No Cavaties!!! :)




She's holding the little mirror

Getting her teeth all sparkly!

OK--- Maybe this was a bit odd, but I had never seen dental xrays before and I just had to take a picture!! I just thought it was so neat to see her adult teeth underneath waiting to pop through!
