Doings lately

It’s time for a quick recap of what’s been going on over here. Hold onto your hats folks, here we go!


This cute kid had a birthday and was baptized. 


He also tried on Jess’s clothes. We laughed and laughed. He then asked if he could sleep in them. We convinced him that it wouldn’t be very comfortable. 


Here’s Ansel standing next to his You’re a Good Sport Charlie Brown diorama. He did the whole thing all by himself. The kid had a vision and went to it!


Ian is having fun building, playing, and being so imaginative. 


He said this was his jungle. So cool! Then he requested that no one should mess it up. That’s a big request seeing as he lives in a house with 5 other people, one of them being a near two-year-old. 


Here’s his “drawer guy.” Look at the smiling face he drew. I’d want to get tinfoil from that friendly drawer anytime. 


Oliver had his cast removed and he’s back to 100 percent. 


He continues to grow like a weed and lose teeth at an astonishing rate. He’s basically as tall as I am and the kid’s 11. 


Elsie loves to watch the snow. 


She handled this cold day at the park. It was her first experience at a playground so the allure made her forget all about temps. 


She is such a happy kid! We are currently trying to figure out how much sleep she needs (one or two naps?), because she never lets on how tired she is because she so good natured (and full of energy, ready to do anything and everything — see park experience above).


We had some family visit from out of town, so we did our best fitting in a fun activity with social distancing measures since we have some high riskers in the group. It made us get creative and we had a lot of fun. 


It was snowing, so we all got under the lean-to and had our hot chocolate. 


The kids were good sports. And the snow was kind of magical. I feel like we’re getting a knack at finding spots were no one else really goes but we can gather. 

February was filled with goodness.
