The Hawk

Well, it's official...I am no longer "cool." And, I have to say that I no longer care!! Now that we have three children, I care much more about what is EASY!

Ladies and Gentleman.....drumroll please....introducing the Hawk:

I had told Lanny and Ben that I DO NOT want to call it the "van." We can't call it the Honda because we already have another Honda. Ben and Lanny vetoed my other names, which were the Party Wagon or Hoopti. So, we all agreed on the Hawk.

Snow Fun

The kids had a great snow day last week! I can't believe how much snow we got. We had fun with snow ball fights, sledding, snow men, etc!

What was NOT fun was losing power at midnight the night it snowed so much. It was out for a while, and we had made plans to stay at our cousins' house that night, who so generously offered their home to us while they were out of town. We spent the morning at a friend's house who did have power. I went home to pack up our stuff and as I packed the last bag, the power kicked back on. It was nice to get to stay in our own house, though!!

And, then, we got to have a slumber party (complete with brownies and ice cream) with our friends who didn't get their power back until the next day.

6 Months

Brandt turned 6 months old this week! He had his check up and is doing great! He weighed 18 lbs 1 oz (70th%) and was a little over 27 inches (75th%); he still has a peanut head in the 20th percentile.




















For his 6 month birthday, he got to try some cereal; as you can see, he loved it ;)

More Snow!

It has snowed all day! It has been so fun!!!

Here is our snowman; he was standing at one point :)
