March 2010 in a Thousand Words

Tee ball anyone?  We did take a day to play at the park, but our routine hasn't included much variety this month.  There are some random photos as I experiment with the camera, but most have a reason to exist.  If you can't figure it out, feel free to post a comment/question.

February in a Thousand Words

February was a much calmer month than January.  We had a few colds run through the family, but remained mostly healthy.  We were able to go to the Oakland Temple, while the boys enjoyed Chabot Space and Science Center.  Joshua honed his baking skills and even took a loaf of bread he made to share with his preschool class.  Gideon discovered his hands, continues to grow, and loves to smile at anyone who will smile at him.  All the boys chose new shoes, Nathan loved his so much that he slept with them (multiple times).  Both Daniel and Joshua started into t-ball, which will continue to keep us busy till June.  Fewer happening meant fewer pictures, so you'll probably be able to see all of these without clicking to enlarge, though you can if you want.

January in a Thousand Words

This month was a busy one!  We had a restful New Year's Day and then the month went into overdrive.  We went to Utah and back, with our radiator giving a miraculous performance on the way home.  Within 24 hours we were welcoming our friends the Barruses, who were trying to warm up after a winter in South Dakota.  Unfortunately, we couldn't show them a rousing good time, because the van revealed it's crippled radiator.  So, the next week was spent trying to get that fixed.  It runs much better now, hope the Barruses will come back again.  A few days later Nathan started through a series of unfortunate events which finally landed him in the ER needing a few stitches in his cheek/lip.  Meanwhile, Gideon has reached the 2 month milestone and earned himself 5 shots and an oral vaccine, all for being perfectly average at his checkup.  So here's hoping to a peaceful and uneventful February!
