Who knew a box could be so much fun. They played with it for an hour. Here they claimed they were sledding.

Aunt Liz visits

It was good to spend the afternoon and evening with Aunt Liz. We don't get to see you often enough.

My future is so bright I got to wear shades

Emma does her Lady GaGa impersonation with her foam letters

It was too funny. She was having a great time till she got so many on she couldn't move or get them off.

Emma and Ethan go to their friend Marinel's birthday party

Here's some pics of Marinel's 5th birthday party

 

We are starting our own market

Nanc is sick today and I went upstairs to tell her I had finally been able to contact her Dr. for a appointment. I came down to find that Emma and Ethan were setting up a grocery store on the living room table. They had literally removed about 20 cans and bottles from the pantry to the table.

Now if only I could harness all that energy in a "useful" manner.

Emma and Ethan in their car

We had a box from Amazon.com so I made a car for Ethan and Emma out of it. The dashboard and tailights, wheels only lasted a few minutes before they fell victim to Ethan and Emma, the rest of the car survived.

 

Emma reads in bed

Emma decided she wanted to read instead of take her nap.

Just love the way the flash highlighted Ethan's face

I love the way the flash from the camera highlighted Ethan's face and hid the background. Ethan was dragging their parachute around the living room, just before bed.

Emma and Ethan wear Daddy's Harley motorcycle boots

You have to start them out early if you want them to like what you do!

Ethan got our Daddy's boots and then Emma got in the game too.

Can't believe they can walk in them, they weigh a ton.

 

Emma and Ethan go with Daddy and Mommy to do the Polar Plunge

On Ethan and Emma’s birthday we all went to the Polar Plunge to support the Special Olympics. To say it was cold would be a understatement, but we feel so blessed that Ethan and Emma are so healthy we wanted to help others in a small way.

I think Emma and Ethan have caught on to Daddy's a SAHD

Well I guess Emma and Ethan have caught on to the fact that their Daddy and Mommy don't have the usual stereotypical roles. This was them playing at the same time. Emma is going golfing while Ethan goes grocery shopping. Emma is still in her sleeper since she got up again halfway through the night and then went back to sleep as Nanc was leaving for work and slept in. I am starting to think that Emma likes to get up to see Mommy before she leaves for work at 5:15.Ethan on the other hand slept all night, but woke up at 6:45.
