I tired to tell him he's too big.
wow, that's close
reading books with dad before bed
would you like some butter with those rolls?
sweet mohawk. No signs of curls yet.
We went to the doctor this morning and confirmed double ear infections. Poor baby. He has had a low grade fever the last few days and really hasn't been eating like normal (i know, he could stand to skip a few meals) but this morning he was at 102. He cried from the moment we got home last night unless someone was holding him. All night. The whole night. Poor Tad is such a good husband, he stayed up with him most of the time and didn't get much sleep. I am just glad its not contagious and he is on the pink stuff, so hopefully that will knock it out quick.
Here is Mr. Leafy. Tad's first snowman broke. We have too many leaves in our yard. 
Tad was very determined while working on his snowmen. I had no idea how dedicated he was to snow play. 
SM on the other wasn't really sure what to think about the whole thing. He played outside for over an hour though before he had to come in and drank 2 cups of hot chocolate. 
We couldn't find a sled, so we used the top of a storage container to get down the hill in our back yard. SM only had fun when he went with me. GJ slept through all the fun. 
We did manage to surprise the Stuarts for their going away party. We are sad they are leaving but excited that someone has graduated (that gives us hope!) and is actually moving on. 
Miracle of miracles. I haven't seen snow for 5 years and I look out the window to a light sprinkle of snow. Within an hour we actually had big flakes and then it actually started to cover the ground. Now we didn't exactly get enough for a snowman,but it was fun for one day. In the morning it was still there, but it was raining, so it has now all melted away. But you would think I had never seen snow before, I was so excited!
They sure are cuddley cute though. 
SM's eyes are no longer blue. I can't say when they changed or even what color they are now. When I ask him, he says green. 
Every chance he gets, he is playing with trains. He even sleeps with Percy (I know, its really Henry, but its too late now, he won't accept the change). I caught him playing with his trains in his little people zoo this morning. Who needs the animals? GJ is glad to slobber all over them.
We are so grateful for all of the hard work he puts in at school and church, and for our family. He a great dad and we love him. He takes care of so much stuff that I loathe (the cars, the house, paperwork, bills) He stresses out to much, but he does so much and we couldn't ask for a better dad. Happy Birthday Daddy!
