His Little Window

Snow Day

I woke up this morning to my personal nightmare... SNOW! And a lot of it! I hate snow and last night we got a ton of it (10 inches to be exact) dropped in our neck of the woods. The kids' school was closed and so was JMU (even though we are currently on spring break anyway).

This was the view from our second floor around 8am this morning. Yuck!

We spent the day playing with Play Doh, making chocolate chip cookies, playing "wedding," watching TV, lounging around, and Wes took the twins outside while I graded papers for a bit.

 

Even though I might hate the snow, the twins absolutely LOVE it!

I just don't see the fun in snow. I hope it's gone by the weekend.

Fun with Pax

No Gymnastics Today

Gymnastics class was cancelled today (due to JMU's spring break). So naturally, we took the kiddos to Pump It Up! (sorry about the blurry pictures- the lighting was terrible and we were BOUNCING)

Watercolors

Last weekend, we had some fun with watercolors. As you'll see below, the twins took painting very seriously.

The difference between painting with boys and painting with girls:

So serious.

Around Here Lately

Paxton has become obsessed with opening this bottom

drawer in the kitchen and digging around inside it.

Gavin and Vivian are still completely obsessed with eating

chips and dip with their Daddy. And Wes is, too.

We recently moved the play kitchen into

the living room for Pax. He's in love.

Even though it sucks that Pax is sick, I've really

enjoyed the extra couch-snuggling I've been experiencing.

There have been a few days in the last couple of weeks that have

been a little warm and the kids have thoroughly enjoyed playing in the back yard.

Yesterday, the twins, Wes, and Pax crowded around his

iPhone on the floor and watched a ton of random Youtube videos.

Vivi, Pax, and I aren't the only ones who've enjoyed snuggling on the couch.

Our Busy Monday

Last Monday, we had a busy day. We started off by taking an early morning grocery trip to Walmart. Then we played at home for a while, ate lunch, and played some more.

Somehow, the twins' Monday nap was avoided. This made it a little difficult to get through all of gymnastics class.

After gymnastics, we went to Walmart again (to get some forgotten meds for Pax) and Petsmart (to look at all of the animals and just pittle around).

By 5pm, it was time to go to Family Night at Chick Fil-A. It was a Dr. Suess themed night. There was a make-a-Dr. Suess-hat craft, cookies to decorate, story time, and free ice cream (which we unfortunately did not partake in).

Gavin: "I like to mix my ketchup and BBQ sauce.
Did you know dat about me, Mom? I is a dip-mixer."

A busy (but very fun) Monday, indeed.
