We started out 2015 with a ferry ride to Bainbridge to celebrate Auntie Laura's birthday.
Even though this winter has been pretty warm for us, ferries in January are still pretty cold!
Our little Seahawk fans had a great time cheering this season. They were pretty upset about the end of the Super Bowl, but they're all still proud of the team.
Daniel's cub scout troop took a trip to see a Blanchet High School women's varsity basketball game. They loved watching the game and were particularly interested in the cheerleaders. ("Who are these people? What are they doing?")
Matthew had a great time.
Aaron got pretty into the game.
Valentines day was spent with our lovely friends, Brynn and Casey.
The next night, we lined up one of the boys' favorite babysitters so that the four of us could go out to eat together. Hiep is a rockstar.
We've had a bit of a graffiti problem in our back yard. Luckily, it's not too hard to figure out who the culprit is.
Apparently Daniel can still fit in the crib. And it's so sweet to see him spending quality book time with his littlest brother.
The boys are big into jokes right now. This was shoved into the kitchen, and when I opened it...
Ha! Joke's on me, it's filled with the most disgusting things they can think of. [Clean] socks, diapers, and underwear. Bwahahahaha!
Baby keeps growing and growing. We have just three weeks left till the due date (though each baby has come later and later, so I'm expecting to still be pregnant in four weeks).
Aaron's hair one day looked like we had put it in curlers the night before. A perfect barrel-type curl.
Daniel's drawer for his lego creations and other special items has attracted the younger brothers lately. Too bad they can't read.
Aaron likes to make trips to the mail box. He likes to run because "running gives me good exercise."
Daniel's school took a trip up to Burlington to volunteer at a food bank. Chris took Daniel and Matthew, and they had a great time learning about the food bank, sorting food, and then distributing food to patrons of the food bank.
Meanwhile, Aaron stayed at home with me and we had "potty training camp." He did a great job...it's really about time.
Matthew has been loving on his god-sister Mercy. She doesn't seem to mind. :)
Aaron's been really good at the photo-bomb.
These guys have been taking some park-outings with daddy so that I can have a break.
I had a terrible cold a little while ago that included a lost voice for a couple of days. While I was still in the throes of the cold, we had a weekday off school for teacher meetings, and Chris was out of town for work. These sweet boys decided to take care of me and made me breakfast in bed all by themselves. They were so proud of themselves (and I was proud, too--there were no messes and nothing broke in the process). I can't believe how grown up they are!
There are plenty of shenanigans going on here. We are never bored.
