Sibling Bonding Time

This baby is so loved. His expressions say it all...

 Really, Kiwi, these girl clothes are not my color.

 Seriously mom, you call this a babysitter? He's not even reading the book to me.

 Let go of me! Ugh, you're so annoying. 

This guy, I like this guy. He can hold me anytime.

Pie Day 2015

We'll never get sick of this tradition. This year was ultimate pie day! 3/14/15. And yes, we also recognize Star Wars day on May 4th. We are those people. 

First Smiles?

They're elusive and hard to catch

 Almost got it. 

The winking half smile will have to do.

One Month Old Baby

Where did the time go?

How is he so big already?

Z is as shocked as we are!

Snow Day Activities

JW and Mr. S love building. They also love having pictures taken of the things they build.

 We've had plenty of opportunities for building as we're trapped inside waiting for the six feet of snow to melt. I have a feeling March is going to be long.

 That's one good thing about having a little baby right now. We don't have to come up with excuses to just stay home and snuggle. 

The Big One Oh for Kiwi

And to wrap up the crazy month of February, we had to squeeze in a little birthday party for the now 10 year old. We totally chose correctly, and had it hosted at a local rock climbing gym. This was legit in that there was real rock climbing, with harnesses and ropes and the whole nine yards.

It was a total blast for the kids. I would recommend this type of easy party option, if your kid is like Kiwi and likes to be active. They were so tired at the end it was great.

It is a great feeling as a parent to see your child do a hard thing. Kiwi was very proud of herself for making it to the top.

Grandparents meet Little Z

Of course the grandparents want to check out the newest edition to their progeny (or is that prodigy? :))

We managed to get the grandkids looking great all in the same shot. You can't get any luckier than that.
