"Wow", That's All She Could Say

Skating Girl

The photos and video are from last week when Anna really learned to skate! The video quality is HORRIBLE, but that will just give me incentive to drop the dough for a small video camera when we go on our vacation this summer! If you are friends with Derek on Facebook, you should check out Dominic riding his bike, and he's not even 3 yet!

mid-March

The book they are reading is from Pete's Aunt Janet. It's about making miniature food using polymer clay. Don't my boys look handsome with their guitars! And my girl looks cute with her shorter haircut, too! We don't have to have the daily hair-brushing struggle that way--she can easily do it herself!

Photos from the February break. In the ones where Craig is wearing the grey sports sweatshirt, they are at Henry Ford Museum, which I love. We are at the Herman Miller exhibit, and one of the displays was about ergonomics. So, the kids are designing a chair that fits them! They must have spent half an hour messing around with it and getting it comfy. There are more pictures of Anna because she is a more willing subject!

mid-February

A few random pictures from February. Anna with no front teeth and Craig with a robot that we built from a kit that Eva and Tim gave him for Christmas! His smile belies the agony with which he attended the project! You would have thought it was pure torture while we were working on it!

Snowman

The kids made this snowman by themselves back in the middle of January one evening while I was inside fixing dinner. My only contribution was to throw out the gloves/hat/mittens!

The Best Christmas Photos

We took a few pics of opening gifts, but these were the best photos of Christmas and Christmas Eve! The one in their pajamas (Anna in zebra stripes!) was actually one spontaneously hugging the other as a thank you for a well-chosen Christmas gift! The other is Christmas Eve, and they both look oddly devious!

More Pics with Mom/Me

These photos were from December, and an attempt to pacify me after my complaints that I am not in enough family photos! Usually I am the one taking the photos!

Costumes!

Anna fell knew the minute she saw this costume that she wanted to be a dragon for Halloween!

For some reason I really think Craig looks like Pete here, with his dark eyebrows and darker hair! He did a very spooky "trick or treat" in a vampire-ish voice that was awesome!
