Muffin Tin Monday


We have done a couple of Muffin Tin Mondays at our house but I never seem to get a picture.
Yesterday was President's day so I tried to make that the theme.

 Star PB&J's, pretzel sticks (Abe's log cabin), cherry yogurt (George's cherry tree) & Teddy Grahams (because we just bought them at the store and Addie really wanted them or Teddy Roosevelt)

It's amazing if I put it in a muffin cup Addie will eat it!

Pattern Blocks

Yesterday during quite time Addie was a little too quite so I went in to check on her and I found her sorting her pattern blocks. She is so Craig's daughter!




Yes Addie Dressed herself ;)

Happy Chinese New Year

Last Saturday the kids and I head over to the Crow Collection of Asian Art. They were having special activities for children to celebrate Chinese New Year.
 We got a new stroller last week and Adelynn is loving pushing her little brother around.

 We got special treat to take home. Addie tried a couple of things mostly the candy but she passed on the watermelon seeds and candied coconuts.
 Addie standing in front of something REALLY old I told her she couldn't touch or sit on anything!

 The kids got to make rabbit ears (FYI year of the rabbit), and a fan
Addie: A fan just like Mulan!


My attempt to get a good picture of Addie in front of the museum.




Climbing on the house

These pictures are from a couple of weeks ago.


 Okay I know I shouldn't let her do this but I swear it was really cold outside and we couldn't go to the park and play so you do what you've got to do to keep the house in order ;)


A day at the zoo and a friend too!

Today it's in the 80's and I've been dying to go to the zoo, so we went!
My friend Allison (the world traveler she just got in from Africa Wednesday) was in town for a couple of days and so she joined us on our little trip.

 Snack time
 Addie was dying to play in the water but she know the rules- If you get wet we go home!

 The petting zoo



No trip is complete without a ride on the carousel  

We had a great time and it was a nice way to caught up on Allison life! Can't wait for her next visit- And maybe next time she in town we can go to the zoo with her niece and nephew!
Hi Avery & Larson!

A Little Taste of Spring

The weather has been amazing here this past week and after being stuck in the house due to the snow and ice we are taking advantage of it! We've played in our backyard, gone to the school around the corner to play and today we went to the park.
I told Adelynn before Bible Study that we were going to the park later and it was all she talked about on our ride to church and as soon as I picked her up she told her teacher Mr. John "We're going to the park!"

As soon as we got to the park she was off!












Addie taking pictures at the park




Asher was there too! He really wanted to play, but since he is still a couple of weeks away from walking, he got to experience the park mostly from his stroller.




I let Asher try out the swing but.....

 I don't think he liked it!
