I am not very good at picking just one photo but I love to recap my life- haha- just a tad narcissistic I suppose...  Here are some shots from our last week- trying to make sure each kid was captured at least once.

Working on her new activity calendar- thanks Aunt Hannah

This boy is addicted to technology- I suppose this is "normal" these day.  This was a webcast about motherhood- I am sure he learned a lot:)  But if a computer, tv or phone is on- he is there!

I sing a song sometimes, ok often, "everybody's sad, what are we gonna do" - the best part is Olivia has picked up on it and joins in...  Yesterday though I think she sang "everybody's happy..."  

Just hanging out like a big boy

 So we don't consider ourselves very fun people- at least we don't initiate lots of fun in our lives.  However, we feel lucky that we have been able to surround ourselves with very fun people- like Astrid and family- she has a 4 year old boy and twin 2 year old girls!  So she also gives me a reality check of my life.  SO- this summer she built a huge sandpit playground in her back yard and had us over every evening when Nate was in Croatia- a large reason why I survived that trip! And for Christmas she built her kids a ball pit.  Yes a ball pit in their sunroom porch, complete with 2500 balls and boxes to jump off of and into it.  The cutest moment was when Olivia and Isaac jumped together- a double jump Olivia called it.  So much FUN!!!

For Christmas we received a really fun looking dinosaur cookie making kit . After spending friday night and most of the day Saturday we had one cookie....  So yea.  All the pieces tasted good though!
