Four Kid Family

 Around here there has been lots of Andy holding.and game playing.  One day we played every game in this stack because it was too cold to go outside.
For Christmas the kids got a zoo pass and Bridget braved taking them to the zoo when Justin had the flu.  She must have terrified them enough because they were all great!


 They were kind of confused that Eli the gorilla was eating cardboard.
 We enjoyed some beautiful flowers from our Secret Elves for a long time.
 Ian loves his brother and Andy makes funny faces.
 We've been doing lots of domino runs.  Ian was trying to perfect a three-tiered one this time.

 Andy is getting great at tummy time and rolled over on January 13th and had his first smile on January 19th.
 We had just a tiny bit of snow that for the record has still not melted!
 We practiced some kid pyramids.


 They made a sledding hill in our driveway.

 Justin tried out his new snowshoes on his birthday.
 And the kids treated him to quite the "Daddy Spa".
 Andy practiced the superman workout move.
 And fell asleep from being so cute.


 Austin was adorable with his cousin.
 Ian and Rachel made "mouse town" in their hallway.  It was complete with a city hall, stores, and apartment buildings.
 Here is a resident.
 Here's a sweet apartment.
 Ian had Rachel draw up plans for his gorilla habitat.  We especially loved the "pee botel" and "poop botel" (aka bottle).
 The cute young women froze in a night of snow games.
 We did some science activities on what floats.

 And we had some CRAZY freezing rain!
And our children put on a funny play.  Josie was a princess, Ian a ninja, and Rachel a crazy zoo keeper.  All zoo keepers out there should never, ever wear that outfit.
