Artist

My guess is that Smith will not be an artist when he grows up.
















Chuck and I made Smith som edible finger paint (just in case). He didn't like is much as we thought he would!

Bounce Houses!

Today we had a birthday party to go to and Dr. was actually off and went with us!

Dad and Chuck going through a tube.




Smith is so happy it hurts?




It turned out to be pretty warm so we got to play in the back yard. We are still working on not eating every piece of dirt in sight.







Chuck took a spin around the house on his scooter.





And we got a head start on things and put Chuck's valentine's together for his class. He is giving ring pops that say "you're a gem!"




Smith has a little virus. Rash, runny nose, red cheeks. He has had a rough winter. Just thankful it's not an encounter with the flu.

Chuck's Weekend

Chuck continued planning the weekend. The train table was Saturday so Sunday we went to a playground. Chuck actually picked which one we went to. It's getting a little bit more fun (exhausting) because now Smith is old enough to play. He spends the entire time going up and down little stairs or curbs. (We have no step up in our house. It is completely flat all the way out the front door and the back door.)













The wrong one took a nap on Sunday.




Chuck is still getting his kiwi crate from Aunt KoKo every month. (Every time it comes he gives a surprise sound and says "Aunt Koko sent this to me?"). This weekend we made some weeble wobblers and some "potion".

Trains

Chuck planned the day. Today he decided we would go to the store and play with the train table and "not buy anything, mom". So we went to the store and played with the train table....for an hour.




We were asked many times if we needed help and I let them know that we just came to play! I'm not sure why I've never thought about getting Chuck one. Maybe because they take up so much room. Perhaps if Smith ends up sharing a room with Chuck then I will convert Smith's room into a playroom.

We also went on a walk. We normally walk three miles. Well, by the time we were done both boys were asleep! (After boycotting naps at home.). So I just continued walking and did another loop. So we got in 6 miles today (and remember when the boys are in the stroller it is about 85/90lbs)!!!

More teeth?

I was starting to wonder if two teeth is all he had. Looks like we are finally getting our top two teeth.

Summer in the Winter

The weather here has been fabulous. It was cold today but the past 4 days it's been warm enough for me to stroll the boys. They have been so great. I have a three mile course I like to walk that works up a sweat pushing them up and down hills. With both boys and the weight of the stroller I am pushing 90lbs! I didn't ask for anything for Christmas because I got a double stroller around thanksgiving. I am so happy I did. I love it! The next few days are going to be warm again so we will be back out again tomorrow!

Chuck was sick (stomach virus?) this weekend so stayed home from school Monday. Our walk got him some fresh air and a nice nap! Smith and I were sick yesterday. We are all fine now. So glad it is over! I am also very thankful it wasn't the flu!

Here's pics of our everyday life...

Smith loves to wrestle his teddy bear!




Smith likes to dress in his workout gear too. Way to keep mom motivated!




Dad is home early enough to sword fight. Mom is glad she gets a break from being stabbed and hit over the head.







Smith plays outside for the first time as a walking little boy!




Chuck is still strong.
