Here we are at Davey's birthday party.
The boys enjoyed a morning with Uncle Geoff and the super awesome gifts from him. Both of them really like the boxes they got to carry out of the restaurant.
Here the boys are in one of the the last play times in the leaf pile. Our Kitty decided to watch and make sure all is well with the boys.
Alex being silly with his hat.
The boys wanted to help me make popcorn. They have to be in the action while cooking now. Not sure it's as much fun for me.
On our anniversary this year we went couch shopping. We started with the boys, which was not awesome because Art Van has lots of breakables at kid height. But Alex also found it fun to see if he could fit in consoles of couches.
This is one couch we decided on after shopping 9am - 9pm. It is the one on the right and has two recliners and the pillows are attached. We'll be getting this delivered tomorrow in a nice chocolate brown that is as soft as a teddy bear.
This is the second couch we decided on. This is my couch.... deep enough to sleep on, cushions are removable, 8' long, and super comfy for sleeping. It will be coming in the lighter brown color above Mikes head in the picture. Hopefully we will get this one by Feb.
Here are the boys on a random 70 degree day in Nov. Alex was looking at the map to direct us to the next location.
The boys got to see the Lion walking around.
At times Alex will grab a magazine while we are checking out and sit on the bench waiting for us to finish.
The boys enjoying their suckers.... I can't remember why they both got one, but Evan was in heaven.
The boys helping me make Mac and Cheese
Evan at the doctors office. he enjoys sitting in his chair and eating his snack. He's a pretty good companion while I'm there. He'll be seeing me get two shots at my appointment next week.
The boys and Oma enjoying Dexter Bakery baked goods. We shared I think 5 different donuts while we were there. They ate so much they couldn't finish what we got, but man they were happy campers.
The boys walking around downtown Farmington looking for a place to eat.
The boys with Santa. We went to Holly Days in Farmington and we got to see Santa for free and a free picture. He even asked Alex what he wanted to Christmas and Alex responded with "Candy". Evan was not very happy with seeing him, but it might have been because he was a bit under the weather.
The boys watching some TV. I just thought it was cute they were laying side by side. No more chaise in a day so these times are fleeting.
Evan enjoying his snack while Alex is in swim class. The only way I can keep Evan near me during swim is to feed him, otherwise he just wanders all over.
The boys enjoying mowing some snow.
Yum, hot cocoa!! Alex actually prefers Tea to Cocoa, but Evan prefers cocoa with marshmallows.
Alex setting up his Nativity.
Alex was a bit under the weather last week. This is his sad face.
I was concerned with Alex having a fever for a few days so we went to the doctor's office to get him checked out. All was fine and she said it was just a virus going around.
The Wades are home and they brought the snow with them. Here is their barn newly painted with the snow showing off the white trim. Alex went sledding most of the time we were there, Evan was not as excited about the snow. Without Clara he couldn't even walk through the snow.
Dave thought he'd look nice with a pink beret, Mom and I agreed.
Evan enjoying more hot cocoa with whip cream.
The boys having a nice warm bath. Cheese!!
The Wades came over yesterday so Mike and I could go to a movie with James. After which they enjoyed an evening of Mario Cart with Alex. The boys are really enjoying, as I am, having them home.
Daddy and Alex went out this morning to shovel all the snow we got last night. Evan chose to stay inside with me and stay warm for a while, but....
Once the sled came out Evan was out the door and down the hill.
Weeeee!!
