Downtown Saturday

Aunt Christie recently moved into a super-cool apartment downtown, and the boys have been dying to check it out. Saturday morning we headed down to enjoy the awesome view, great weather and good company. Grandma and Pops joined us too, and Aunt Christie made a great breakfast. After breakfast, we headed up to the roof for the view (and a little running around). Then we made our way to the media room. The boys reclined the chairs and watched Toy Story on the huge screen. Finally, we walked over for some lunch at Kooky Canuck. What a great day!

 

 

 

 

 

Roller skating

We've finally had a few warm days, and Alex and Reed have headed outside to use some outside Christmas presents. They got to test out their roller skates, play with the football goal post, shoot hoops and ride scooters. They had a blast!

President's Day

Alex and Reed spent a fun President's Day holiday with Grandma and Pops (and Aunt Christie). They played with all the cool toys at their house, and Alex even got to venture out into the snow. Not much accumulation, but a fun time.

 

 

 

Valentine's Day

I feel like we have been celebrating Valentine's Day for a week now! We had school parties on Friday, candy all day Saturday, and then we actually had to celebrate the real holiday on Sunday! In honor of the actual day, we baked heart shaped cookies and were really, really lazy. Alex asked if he could keep his pajamas on all day and so we did (they were red!). All in all a fun day with all three of my favorite valentine boys.

Playing in the sink

Lately one of Alex and Reed's favorite activities has become playing in the sink. They get out their stools and roll up their sleeves. I turn on a little bit of water and fill the sink with measuring cups, spoons, etc. They literally will stand there for an hour and play. Very cute!

 

 

Alex's Valentine's Day party

I went to Alex's Valentine's Day party today at school. They did some reading, ate a fun snack and played Valentine's bingo. They also exchanged valentines and ate lots of candy!

Last week, we were at Target buying valentines for the class. We passed a display of big candy hearts, and Alex asked if he could get one of those for Abigail (a girl in his class). I asked him why, and he replied, "because she's a girl." Oh, boy! I suggested that we get treats for everyone in the class, and he was fine with that. But, I'm not sure I'm ready for this!

 

 

Another weekend at Moz and Gramps' house

Alex and Reed are finally getting used to Moz and Gramps' new house. They had a great time last weekend. They played with blocks, did puzzles, rode the "turtle rides" and even visited with Aunt Tootsie and Aunt Linda. Looks like they had fun!
