Naptime.

Christopher has been taking less and less naps lately. It's hard because if he gets up early and doesn't nap he's super cranky by the time the evening rolls around. Luckily, he'll usually stay in his room during the time he's supposed to be napping, and read books or play quietly by himself. Except for the day he got out his markers and decided to color on EVERYTHING. I think I counted at least 20 different things that he'd drawn a tiny purple scribble on including the door, the walls, both light switches, his toy boxes, his stereo and speaker, his chair, a wooden truck, the Fisher Price castle, his new toy shelf, his easel (both on and off the paper), his blanket, his special Giraffe stuffed animal, one of his stuffed dogs, his bed and... himself. Luckily crayola washable markers come off most surfaces easily!

Snow Day.

We've been trying to take it easy since the holidays but we did manage to make it up to the snow for a day of fun with some friends. The boys enjoyed sledding and making a snowman while us parents enjoyed running after them and trying to keep them from eating the snow! Here are some pictures...

All bundled up for the snow!


Christopher and Jake took turns pulling each other on the sled.


The cute little snowman we built. The boys had fun collecting things to decorate him with.



Christopher was exhausted!
