MORE SNOW!

Waiting patiently for the signal that he can go out!

9 inches and counting

The boys working on their fort

Now it's time for a snowman

Collin got his workout in for the day

Time for some hot cocoa
Can you still call it that if it's room temp?

The boys did pretty good walking in it. Caden got stuck a couple times but still loved it.

SNOW!!!

The boys were beyond thrilled to wake up to snow. I was able to stall them until 9:30, then it was time to head out.

Ready for a ride!

Faster mom!!!
This was quite a little workout

They ganged up on me!!!

Bye Bye Tonsils!

After way too many sore throats and rounds of Strep, the doctor decided Wyatt needed to have his tonsils out. He has been such a trouper! Did great all morning and once we got home he started getting sick and has had a little trouble keep anything down, but this big boy just grabs his bowl when he needs it and hasn't complained once. He even tried playing Legos for a while. But after I convinced him he doesn't need to pretend to feel ok, he snuggled in for another movie.


Silly juice in and a VERY relaxed boy. :)
(see video below)

Popsicle #1

This weekend Wyatt and I worked on some of his homework that his teacher sent home. Today, just 4 hours after having his tonsils out this sweat heart went to his folder and said he had to do more work. I tried to convince him to take today off, but he wanted to do some. I found the easiest thing for him to do and he completed a Dot-to-Dot before deciding he would rather watch a movie.

Before I started taking the video, he was trying to grab the things off of the page.
I think they give the kids 'silly juice' to help the parents relax too!

Dishwasher

I had to post these just to get them on record for when Caden is 13 and rolling his eyes at me every time I ask him to unload the dishwasher. :)

Cookies & Cards for Papa

The boys had fun this week making cookies to send to Papa. Peanut butter and jelly! :)

I thought their favorite part would be making the thumb print in the dough, but I was wrong. They loved putting the drops of jelly in.

We couldn't send cookies without trying a couple first!

Then we made some cards. I sent them up before I got a picture of them. Wyatt did such a great drawing of him pushing Papa in his wheelchair down a hall that happened to have a rainbow on the wall. Caden just kept tracing his hand saying 'high ive for Papa!'

And yes, Caden wore his head lamp pretty much all afternoon and it had to be on flashing.

Murphy Christmas

We had a nice Christmas with the Murphy clan (about 2 weeks ago)
The boys love their new table and food/kitchen stuff. They serve me dinner every day! :)

A month in review

The last month has gone by in a blink of an eye. A teary eye at times, but fast that's for sure! This is my first attempt at a slide show...I hope it works.
