A Little of Snow in February

 

We got a little bit of snow in early February, but it was enough to get the kids out to play!

Caelan and her best buddy Ewan.  Ewan is wearing Brennan’s old coat and hat in this picture.  And, I think Caelan is wearing a hat that was handed down from Cassidy.

I love this picture below of Damian (Ewan and Cassidy’s Dad) with the ‘littles’'.

Go Seahawks!


This year the Seahawks won the Superbowl, and we celebrated in style with the kiddos…..

I decided that Caelan’s looked a little like a lemur…..

After we won the game, Brennan and I decided to go to Dick’s Sporting Goods and see if they had any shirts yet, and sure enough they did.

Deck the Halls

 

Yes, it is Christmas in March.  I’m realizing that I don’t think that I ever shared pictures from the Family Pictures we had taken in late November.  The kids were both pretty uncooperative, but we got a few pretty good ones.

Ohmygoodness……look at those goofy forced smiles…..

Wow, its been a long time!

 

I have really fallen off schedule in updating the blog!  My work has been more demanding, and life at home has been a bit stressful too.  In any event, I am going to try and get back on track, but it will take a while. 

The below pictures are from way back in January!

Caelan got a new Gymnastics leotard for Christmas and was very excited to model it for me….

She also got ‘Piggy Paint’ for christmas and these are her pretty toes – painted in Seahawks Green!  Go HAWKS!

In mid- January, Sean took Caelan and flew to Helena for a few days.  Brennan and I went roller-skating on Saturday, and he very much wanted to see his hair in a mohawk (not even sure where he got this idea).  So, I found some gel/hairspray in the back of the cabinet and did my best…..

This is alley-play after skating….

I took a picture of the card we got from St. Matthews Lutheran church where Caelan was baptized in 2011.  I thought this was an incredibly special touch for them to send a card, with a picture even, to remember her ‘Happy Day!’

We had some really great weather days in January…..and our neighbors behind us in the alley recently got a basketball hoop.  I can’t even remember what C was crying about here – probably just mad that I was trying to take her picture.

The kids all gathered around my computer when I started playing music from the movie Frozen.  I was just playing music, but they were convinced they would miss something if they didn’t gather around the screen.

Snacktime!  It was a beautiful January evening, but of course it got quite cold when the sun started setting.

Yes, in case you were wondering, she does still make her ‘diva’ face…..
