We gathered up all the troops and had fun celebrating Papa Bob's birthday on Saturday! The cousins were SO happy to see each other and played their hearts out. We all had a great time, especially since the day belonged to such a special man in our lives. Happy Birthday to the best Dad and Papa we could ask for! We love you!!

We have been keeping busy with this cold, winter weather. We took advantage of $2 Saturday at the movie theater and treated the kids to a movie and popcorn this weekend. We saw Madagascar 3 which we've seen already so Alex got a little squirrely at the end but otherwise did pretty well.
| Movie Time! |
I was practicing with Alex on writing out his name and he is getting better and better. He really wants to succeed but can sometimes get impatient. Sometimes I can't tell what he wrote but he's always so proud of his work. We made Papa Bob a card for his birthday and I had Alex write his name on the back. This was his best effort yet and I was so proud of him! He wrote it all by himself and I didn't help one bit.
| Great job, Alex! |
Other than that, we've just been keeping busy at home with the boys and enjoying their silly personalities...

The boys insisted on helping me make chocolate chip cookies tonight. Not sure all the ingredients were measured just right but the cookies turned out fantastic :)
