Hot Dog

Cole loves Mickey Mouse Club House. He will sit calmly and watch the show and then get supper excited during the Hot Dog dance. The characters each have their own special moves, but I think Cole's are the cutest by far!

Good Dragon Vs Bad Dragon

Night Fury

I have always thought of myself as a "Good Dragon" kind of person. You know like Night Fury from How to Train Your Dragon. The kind of person that will go out of their way to help another. A person that is good with kids. Yes I always thought I was a good dragon person, but today I was told otherwise by a two year old. I walked into the house and said "Hi." And that was all it took for this boy to break down and cry. He told me I was a "Bad Dragon". This was due to the fact that I am getting over a cold and my voice is a bit raspy. So I sound like a "Bad Dragon". That means I yell at people, I am mean, and I don't think of others, but worst of all I look like this...

Sad Day

Snowed in (Still)

After waking up yesterday to realize that we really were snowed in (and still are) we needed to come up with some fun things to do to celebrate Daddy's snow day. So how did we celebrate...

 The first thing that we did was decide to go camping. Not outside of course, but in our basement. it was kinda hard to put up the tent, but with Daddy's little helper it was able to get done. After the tent was put up we had fun playing in the tent and watching movies.

After we set up our tent we had some lunch. We had some yummy mac and cheese, and some super yummy snowflakes. These snowflakes are made out of flour tortillas, butter, sugar, and cinnamon. So yummy!

After our naps we then decided to make a snow man. Not out of snow, but out of cotton balls. Cole mostly had fun playing with the glue.

Then last but not least after dinner Chris made cookies with Cole's help. Or more Chris was making cookies and Cole was trying to eat the dough. After all was said and done we had some yummy cookies and it was off to bed we went.

A Mommy Field Trip

On Monday a few of us decided to go to the Museum of Science and Industry or as Ben calls it "The Big Museum". We had so much fun playing together and learning new things. Us moms had fun talking and playing with our kids. There were so many things to do that we didn't get to everything and we tiered ourselves out. The next day I got sick, but at least we beat the storm and got to have fun before we were snowed in.

We loved learning about gravity.

And about all the different planets.

Lets not forget to act silly.

And to make music with the lights.

Learning about life on a farm.

Say Cheese!!!

Playing with water.

Running through a Mirror maze.

Taking turns driving a race car.

Spilling water.

Getting in and out of chairs.

Learning something new from our Moms.

Running away from Mommy.

Forgive the randomness of these photos. By the end of this post they didn't want to do what I wanted them to do. However we did have so much fun and can't wait to go somewhere else and have fun with our friends again!!

My New Love

Yes that is right I am now a proud owner of a Nikon SLR D3100. This makes me very happy. I was wanting to get a D5000 but when I went to get my camera, they were sold out, and not only that they have stopped making it. All in all I am very happy with it, and I love playing with the camera. Here are some of the very first photos on my camera. They may not be the best , but they were fun to take!
