Caught It!!!

I actually caught Isaac laughing, talking and smiling at Christian on video!


Oh, such is life with boys

Friday was quite the day. After a morning of boys not getting along and mking bad choices, we were at grandma and grandpa's for lunch and the afternoon. First Christian hit Jakobs back so hard that it left a hand print. Then, not a 1/2 hour later, Christian screams and comes running in from the playroom - blood running down the side of his face. It turns out that Jakob swung one of the removable legs from the kids table, hitting Christian right next to his right eye. So mom and I checked it out and, thankfully we didn't have to go to the ER. Although I do wish that I didn't have to do the cleaning and bandaging of it... not a fun place to peal a band-aid off of!!!


Christian is quite proud of his black eye though! (Just like one that Auntie Sarah had!)

Reading time

Christian has a homework "menu" that he is supposed to do every month. We forgot all about it until he came home today with a new one for February... AHHHHH! I always was horrible at doing my own homework, why would I be any better at helping my boys do it? Anyway, at the bottom of every homework list, is "Read a great book to someone that is younger than you." The last 2 months it has been cousin Daniel, but this month it is both Jakob and Isaac. If you listen hard enough, you can hear Jakob trying to correct Christian's reading... Oh Dear.

Snow Snow Snow!!!



Oh What Fun!!! Chris still had school, but was 2 hours late. Jake didn't have school at all. They had fun throwing snowballs at the sliding glass door and, of course, eating snow! We are still getting snow and maybe there won't be any school tomorrow. Christian is probably praying for lots of snow and no school... Didn't you at his age? Oh, to be a kid again.
