It's been nearly 6 months already, kid!

Have you ever had something you loved so much you thought about it every day? Well, Loyd does. Every day since Christmas, my life has been plagued by one question, "Where the stockings go?" Loyd absolutely loves the Christmas stockings Grandma P made for us. Since I took them down after the Christmas season, Loyd has asked me at least once a day, "Where the stockings go, Momma?" Just posting this picture of them on the blog has nearly put him into a frenzy. He loves seeing the stockings and feels the house is missing something important without them. So, to all those who think Christmas should last all year long, Loyd understands.


In other Loyd news, here is a shot of our little hooligan spending some quality time with his little brother. Loyd loves getting into the crib with Xavier and pretends to be a baby or just jumps around for a bit. I think he may be part little monkey. :)


Rebekah and I have had a nice quiet week together working on her alphabet and coloring pages from her giant coloring book she got for her birthday. Here she is displaying one of her beautiful masterworks. She did a great job coloring her frog like a rainbow and filling in the multi-colored lily pads. She also added lots of flowers to the trees in the background. She thought they looked a bit bare. Bekah loves color and thinks everything should be in shades of rainbow. Life would certainly be less colorful without my sweet little girl.

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!
