Snow Bunnies

(3 posts at once, this craziness must stop!)

A few days after our family frolicked in the park, it snowed again (there's CO for ya'). Here's Eli all decked out in his snow gear and our other little snow bunny all cozy inside.

A Day at the Park

(I know, 2 posts in one day, don't get used to it!)

So, for those of you who live(d) in CO, you know that any day above 50 degrees in the spring is reason to break out the short-sleeved shirts and flip-flops! A couple of Saturdays ago was one such day and our little fam' headed to the park. We even took a picnic lunch. :) Eli is so athletic that we love to take him to new playgrounds and let him climb and explore. Of course, he also loves the classic swings too. Maddie was just enjoying being outside and soaking it all in. Right now, she loves to stand and look out at everything/everyone around her.

Valentine's Day (yes, I know it's March...)

OK, so I'm finally posting pictures from Valentine's Day - how bad is that?! Better than never, I guess. So, here's Eli helping me make some cookies. He started out really well by arranging the cookies and then dipping them in sugar...but then he wanted to use every tool in the utensil drawer to "cook." Hmmm...guess we won't be sharing the cookies with the neighbors.

Maddie and I actually went to VA on Valentine's Day so the rest of the aunts, uncles, and cousins could meet her. She is only the second girl grandchild on both sides of the family! All of the cousins had fun trying to make her smile, giving her her paci and touching her toes. And, grandma of course had fun spending some time with her newest granddaughter as well.
