Flat Olivia

-


We had a guest come visit this week. Her name is Flat Olivia. We are all very glad she came. The picture above is with her and Rebekah by the NASA rockets on NASA Rd 1. Flat Olivia is here for a school project. We are suppose to show her around town and teach her a little about League City then send her back home. Wish us luck!



A very nice couple in our ward was cleaning out their attic and came across the table/chairs above and a small pretend kitchen complete with dishes. They kindly gave them to us. The kids are in heaven! Loyd learned how to climb up on the chairs by himself in about 5 mins. He also learned he can drive his sister nuts by pushing the table around the kitchen while she tries to put "food" on it. They crack me up. Now Bekah insists on baking in her kitchen all day long and pushes plates of "cereal" and "pancakes and hash browns" on the family all day long. (Note: My menue is more extensive. She just has an obsession with breakfast) Loyd even gets in on the cooking action and throws the little silverware on the floor with great relish.

Loyd is developing his walking skills. Wednesday and Thursday he was pushing himself to stand up without holding on to anything and on Thursday he took 3 steps and danced for a few seconds before plopping down on his bum. Unfortunately, he seems to be taking a break and hasn't shown interest in walking by himself for the last few days. I'll keep you posted and throw up video of his new skill once we get it captured on tape.

What fun you have at your house. Your little ones are so cute. They are at such fun ages! We love our play kitchen! My kids could play with it all day. I am glad you get hash browns...I usually just get juice...I don't even give my kids juice! Funny!

It's About Time We Got Some Snow Around Here

It's been a bit of a warm and dry winter, until our latest epic snow storm!!  We didn't get as much snow as high elevations, but I'm happy with 9 inches in 3 days.  Diana is all in when it comes to playing in the snow, the little boys have been busy as beavers digging snow forts, and Maeve has found that digging out snow paths with her friend Lilly is a great way to "chill" during the afternoon.  :D  The big kids have been busy helping Dustin and I keep the street shoveled out.  Dustin wakes up early every morning to use my Dad's snow plow to clear all of the sidewalks on our street  before the kids have to walk to school. 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 preference for warm

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!
