Hello

I was surprised today while Owen was playing with the toy phone and it rang and he put it right up to his ear. So of course I had to get it on video.

Where Could The Boys Be??

This just shows we have way too many stuffed animals!

Shoveling with Dad

We haven't had as much outside play time as we would have liked this year. It's tough with a little one and by the time Gary gets home from work it's almost dark. It snowed one day last week and when Gary got home from work he went to work clearing the walkway. Aiden quickly found his boots and coat to run out and help with the shoveling.

Tatts

Aiden has been sporting some new tattoos. I think Mater really shows what a tough kid he is, don't you agree?

Owen's First Hair Cut

Gary is going to kick my butt, he has yet to find out that I cut Owen's hair and I'm already posting pictures. Gary loves Owen's longer locks and the curls in the back. The curls don't bother me as much as all the hair that hangs over his ears. I think Owen gets annoyed with at times also, I'll catch him with his hands in tight little fists holding his hair above his ears. We agreed that he would have his hair cut before Easter....

Well I can't wait till April and I don't think others were going to wait that long also. (FYI- when David was little he had hair over his ears and I was a horrible sister and cut it one day while babysitting. I saved the hair and gave it to Jessica after what she thought was his first hair cut. I had a feeling the same was about to happen to Owen.) So, Owen got a little trim today, I kept the back longer so we could enjoy his curls, but trimmed it a little so he didn't end up with a mullet.

Winter Zoo Trip

We love the zoo!! It never gets old or boring, there is always something new going on or a new animal born. One of my favorite trips is when we visit in the winter, the animals aren't just laying around and being lazy. Some of the animals can't go out when it's cold or icy but you can go inside the building where they are housed most of the time. Last week Jessica, Dad and I took the boys.

Owen spent most of the Day with Papa, he pushed the bus, I mean stroller around the whole day.


I bought the boys giant suckers after lunch, Aiden's lasted about 2 minutes before he dropped it on the floor where is shattered to pieces, thanks Papa for getting him a new one!


The best part of our zoo visit were the Polar Bears! They were swimming and playing in the water. I think we stood there for over a half hour just watching them.




The butterfly house in always our last stop of the day...

Tagged

I was tagged by friend Amy to go to my 6th album and post the 6th picture. That was quite a challenge since I save my pictures in all sorts of ways, holidays, seasons, events and so on. So I just opened picasa and went down six folders from the top to my 6th photo.

This is such a great photo, David, Kyle and Aiden are such great buds. I can't wait for this summer to see Owen trying to catch up to the three of them!



I'm supposed to pass this on, so all you bloggers that read this feel free to consider yourself tagged by me!

Uh-0h

Owen has been working on a new word.....Uh-oh. He has started to figure out the whole cause and effect process and is finding that it's fun to drop things on the floor. Owen already says Aiden and dada. We thought the Aiden thing was a fluke but he says all day long. If Aiden is to leave the room you can hear Owen calling for him.
