Cure for the winter blues

Swim lessons!  Even little Sam is getting in on this one.  “Coach Josh” at the GJCC is like the Toddler Swim Whisperer.  Amazing results.  Can’t wait to take all my swimmers to the pool this summer.

Ben in quiet time

DSCN0288

I took this picture because it perfectly captures the personality of my precious Ben!  He loves his “things” and the way he carefully arranged them all on his bed and then somehow fell asleep made me laugh.  The red streak next to his ear?  That is a piece of gum.

A perfect snow day!

First, check the quality of snow and see if its packable for making a snowman.  Then eat some snowballs for breakfast.  (Ben likes to wear his bike helmet all the time, not sure why)

Next, spend 30 minutes stuffing children into their snow gear and then commence making snow angels.  The above pictures are actually two different children, who happen to be wearing similar snow gear.

Now hook up with some neighborhood friends and collaborate on making the largest snowball possible when you only weigh 40 pounds a piece.

Go ahead and eat some snow if you get thirsty from all that work.

Dress your snow people in appropriate attire, stand back and admire!  Nice work fellas!
