Winter Fun.

On Sunday Gracie and I got outside for a little bit to enjoy some of the snow. We haven't been out yet this year to play in the snow. Gracie loved it!!! I think she would have stayed out all day... except my cheeks and nose was getting cold, so I am sure hers was even colder. The joys of being a kid and having so much fun that the inconvenience of being cold doesn't matter.Eating snow!

Making a snow Angel. Gracie was pretty good at it.

Until Willie came and stepped all over it. Then she got a little upset.

Gracie and Mommy!

Our Christmas

Last evening we did the Marty/Terri Family Christmas celebration. Gracie is really getting into opening presents and realizing what this is all about. Zach just wondered around in amazement at all the paper on the floor and new things to discover. We will be going to my Mom and Dad's on Christmas Eve and then Marty's Mom and Dad's for Christmas day. Always a wonderful time with our families.

Yesterday bowls, Today plastic containers...

So yesterday these trouble-making kids get out all the bowls and play with them... today it is the plastic container drawer. Tomorrow will probably be pots and pans. Who knew a kitchen could also be so much fun. Oh, well at least they are playing nicely together and having fun.

Random Pictures

Well I downloaded 2 months worth of pictures from the camera today and thought I would share a few of the funnier ones. These kids are a hoot sometimes. I don't know where they come up with some of their ideas and actions. Keeps life interesting and definitely no time for boredom.

Enjoy!

Playing Horsey with Daddy

Zach's favorite place is sitting or standing on the coffee table.


Gracie decided to make a little bed for her Curious George on a shelf in the closet. She is very considerate as he gets a pillow to sleep on and her blankie to cover up with.

Zachy trying to get at the crackers himself in the pantry.

He uses the frying pan for a step stool.

Gracie playing night-night with Daddy.

Notice he also gets a pillow and a blanket to cover up with. Then she thought she would lay down too.

Playing night-night on the kitchen floor.

Getting ready for bed and brushing their teeth, then they go hide under the desk.

What are these crazy kids doing?

Zach wanting to wash his hands like his big sister does.

Zachy thinks he can use the potty chair too!

Gracie and Zach spend many hours playing with the big lego blocks.

Wearing Mommy's Army boots.

Oh, so cute, brother and sister hand-in-hand.
