5 years, 4 months & 3 years, 1 month

Monthly picture time!







Excitement from this month:
  • Watching a lot of the Winter Olympics
  • Swim lessons - we're both in the same class now
  • Snow! We got to play outside in it a few times (it's gone now)
  • A lot of Buffs and Regis basketball - now it's onto baseball and softball season!
Monthly questions were asked of John first so he wouldn't copy big sister's answers:

John
  1. What's your favorite part about waking up? Uhhh...hmmm...don't wake up.
  2. If you had $20, what would you do with it? Put it my dinosaur bank [he then ran to the bank to make sure we knew what he was talking about]

Shovelers

We received a little snow for our day off on Monday and we got to work before breakfast!





We worked so hard that we were paid with hot chocolate for breakfast!

Dog show

We were all off from school and work on Monday so we made our annual trip over to the dog show again. We got sidetracked by arts and crafts immediately, but eventually saw some dogs.

Haircut

John tried to save us a trip to the barber and cut his own hair last Friday. Dad took him to Great Clips on Saturday morning and our regular stylist said there wasn't much for her to work with in terms of fixing it. So we'll just have to wait it out!

Maybe a bit more around the sides next time, Johnny!

How to exhaust kids

Erin took us to an indoor trampoline place on Saturday and it was amazing!

 Trying to climb up a slippery slide.



After an hour of jumping.

Enjoy a mishmash of clips!
