  • Watch them grow

    Well, it’s been years (not really, but I guess in a round about sort of way, really) in the making — I’ve finally organized our Flickr stream and I’ve put together three pages of the kids next to their stuffed animals.

    For those who don’t know, Greta and I picked a different animal for each of the kids and took a monthly picture with them next to their animal. Now that they’re all older, we’ll just be doing it yearly, but here are pictures of the three kids, through the months and years:

    Crazy!

  • Major milestones

    There have been a few age changes in the house of late. Tony had his birthday on the 8th. (No comment on the age.) Corinne turned 5 on the 10th. She decided to have a sleepover the weekend before and cake with family for the actual day.

    Ethan also turned six months at the end of January. He is getting around the house with ease doing the army crawl and is starting to get the hang of real crawling. He is as cute as ever. We finally had to give him his first haircut. It was scary but looks way better than the long, wispy look he had going.

    Mason is starting to understand birthdays and answers with the correct age and date when you ask him about it.

    As always, there are more frequent updates on Greta’s website. Feel free to check it out!

  • Happy Holidays!

    I was pretty depressed yesterday thinking that we weren’t going to see any family this year for Christmas Eve or Christmas. By the time dinner rolled around (egg rolls which may be a permanent tradition…yum!), I was getting into the holiday spirit. We built a fire and sang Christmas carols with the lights out. The kids got on their Christmas jammies just in time for cocoa and some of Santa’s cookies. We also had a family from church stop by to carol us! The kids LOVED that. Christmas morning didn’t come too early (which was my biggest fear) and was enjoyed by all. Mason declared that he “needs more presents!” while Corinne asked if there was anything else to “rip.” Ethan has enjoyed the distraction that the presents have brought. He isn’t getting picked on much today. Here’s a summary by photographs:

    The turkey is going into the oven soon. Can’t wait to smell it cooking! All the best to you and yours!

    Corinne also started preschool this past week. She modeled her backpack for everyone:
