Cackle, cackle


Noah loves to dress up - probably more than Dylan does. He doesn't do it unprompted, but he does do it when Dylan encourages him. He was all about the witch yesterday. He even paired the outfit with a real broom, riding around the family room.

Snow Play


Here are some pictures and video of us playing in snow, and then eventually painting snow today. It was a cold, snowy day and we didn't feel like doing much, but this rocked. Do try this at home!

They are finally into it (took a little time for them to catch on that this was fun to wear mittens in the house (they usually hate mittens).

This video is Dylan describing what they are doing. It's funny because she is almost doing a video postcard or something - she definitely is saying things just for the tape - in order to see herself later. Thus the "I love you, you can have fun soon, etc." And yes, she says we're "planting" snow. :)




Here's the painted masterpieces!

Maple Syrup Bowls of Snow


A rare delicacy of my childhood - and something I wanted to give to my children.


ABCs


Noah has become quite the little musician lately and he is so happy when he's singing. Here's a glimpse at his latest performance.

New blog


Well loyal blog readers, I have decided to add posting on another blog to my growing list of things to do.

So, feel free to visit One Mom's Year of Gratitude at:

I'll be here again soon. I just got my computer's hard drive upgraded (thanks mom and dad and Steve) for Christmas, so I can now upload pictures again. Yippee!
