Where do I begin? So much has happened in the past 8 months.
I suppose a photo dump is my best bet.
| First things first, we bought a house!!  Yes that's my husband on the roof shoveling off snow. We moved in the middle of December. It was snowy and cheerful and new! | 
.
| I believe this is my only picture from Christmas time. What a rush to get things settled before the big Christmas celebration! | 
| Helping? | 
| Helping! | 
| Joyfully! ! | 
| My little window washers. | 
| Fun outside! Sledding... into THE BROOK!!! | 
| A warmish day (25 degrees) | 
| When we bought the house a lovely piano came with it for a great price! | 
| Sometimes winter is too cold to play outside. So bring the snow inside!! | 
| Lots of school work accomplished....most days. | 
| A quiet place to think and journal | 
| Get used to it buddy. | 
| Right by our porch this incredible bird pecked a hole! What an amazing time we had watching him. | 
| My Little Pony card game | 
| He said it was for the girls to play with...but I knew better. | 
| Of course they still had a blast!! | 
| Claire walked into the dining room wearing daddy's work clothes. We laughed and laughed. | 
| Sometimes there is so much splashing from this little man an umbrella is in order. | 
| Matching pj's? My two boys. <3 | 
| We celebrated a girl in February. | 
| And quietly at that. We all had colds and had to postpone the real birthday celebration. | 
| Helping mommy again, with laundry this time! | 
| And it looks like he's trying to help daddy build a fire now too. | 
| Quiet time means sewing, reading, light bright or resting. These two are willing participants of quiet time. | 
| We laughed at how big HE is and how tiny SHE is!! | 
| Trying to occupy this boy for a few minutes...isn't always easy. | 
| Caught them in the middle of some good imaginative play. | 
| This has been a winter of soups. The kids love it. So do I! | 
| Coloring time. | 
| Hmmm? | 
| Blowing eggs to make Easter birds! | 
| OH yes! At ten months he started walking! What a gem! | 
| Enjoying a book with daddy. Except Simon who seems to have given up! HA! |
