Brody's First Tooth!!

Brody FINALLY lost his first tooth at dinner tonight! He wiggled it and wiggled it at the table until I finally took the initiative and ripped it out. He was sooo excited! The tooth fairy is visiting for the first time and he is very ready. He's hoping for $100...he will be so disappointed when he finds $2

Snow day (what feels like the 43rd one)

ANOTHER storm has managed to cripple the region and again, we find ourselves home from school. We fared much better than the western part if the state, but the rain in too of the 6+inches has made it annoying to shovel. Of course Jon is away on a ski trip so we are left here to deal with the snow, but we are having a great day!! We (with the help of our fabulous neighbors) have cleared the driveway as well as others on the street, made three snowmen, a fort, and had hot cocoa. Nothing is better than a cozy blanket and a movie after being in the cold, or in Alison's case, a stone cold passed out nap! Hopefully this is our last hurrah with snow!!! I miss spring!!!

Is it really supposed to snow tomorrow??

Because it's 60 degrees and Brody and I rode our bikes to the park in sweatshirts!!

Snow day January 2014

Our third snow day this year and our biggest totals so far. A solid 6 inches was enough for us to venture to the Soderro's house for pizza, sledding, hot cocoa, dinner, playing, and movies all day. They had so much fun, Alison fell fast asleep face down on the couch!!! Great time and we even got another snow day the next day:)

Alison's First Soccer Practice

She was sooooo excited to play!! Of course, we needed a new outfit and shoes for the occasion. Her friends from Goddard are also in the class, but they never left their parents and cried the whole time. Not Alison, ran away and never really looked back! Overall a successful event!

Lacrosse Clinic

After much begging, we broke down and registered Brody for a 5 week clinic at SPY. He loves it!! Hope he still enjoys it when it's outside at 8am on Saturday mornings this spring!

Happy 6th Birthday Brody!!

I can't believe how big my little guy is getting. We celebrated his birthday at home by going out to dinner and having cake, again at school with cupcakes, and finally at the barn with a Batman party. The party was was so fun!!! We had almost 20 kids join us to welcome Batman and play games, and of course, eat cupcakes! The kids LOVED the special guest and the games. Such a fun and exhausting day. If course, no birthday would be complete without a fever and cough!
