The Magic Chair

-

Loyd has been a bit unhappy in the evenings lately. Out of desperation we have discovered what I like to call "The Magic Chair." If we wrap Loyd up and rock just right with him in the big comfy chair he can't resist the urge to quiet down and fall asleep. Bless the magic chair! Loyd is starting to get some great belly laughs. I love it when they get to the stage where they can giggle at the silliest things. Whenever someone looks him in the eye he rewards them with a great big grin and then pulls his cute little hands to his mouth in excitement. It's the best thing to see in the mornings when I go to get him.


Rebekah is keeping me in stitches with her wacky wardrobe choices and her incessant desire to explore and learn. This picture is her looking at the moon through a glorified toilet paper roll on Sunday. She loves space. She never tires of shouting "Space! Space!" when we drive past NASA and their outdoor jet display. She also loves to spot the moon in the evenings (as seen above) and sometimes when she is up late enough she can even see a few stars before she has to go to bed. Two is such a fun age!

The kids and I have been working hard to keep our driveway and the driveways of some of our elder neighbors cleared after all of this wonderful snowfall.  It's been a fun wintertime treat.  The ward to the child who shoveled the most for this storm goes to Rebekah!  She's a pretty awesome snow shoveler despite her preferenc...

Xavier is getting down to work on this year's science fair project.  He's testing to see which oil is best for popping popcorn.  It's important science. John and Diana are enjoying playtime inside boxes, because boxes are the best, of course! John is starting to have fun playdates with friends from the neighborhood.  It's so fun to find good friends who share a love in all things Paw Patrol!
