Everett’s First Haircut

27 Feb

The kids and I all got haircuts last week.  This was Everett’s first haircut, but I forgot my camera so I took pictures with my phone.  Sorry for the poor quality!  He actually did really well!

Snowy Day

26 Feb

A few weeks ago, on a Saturday afternoon, we took the kids out to play in the snow.  Everett was still getting the hang of walking and didn’t want to walk on the snow at all!  Kaisa had a blast throwing and eating snow.  Why do little kids like to eat snow?  I will never understand.  I didn’t have snow growing up, so this is all new to me. :)

Here are some pics!

Kaisa had just eaten a big handful of snow!

What IS this stuff!?

Kaisa and Kora. What a pair!

Loving the swing!

More swing fun!

The snow was PERFECT for making snowballs! Nathan rolled this one in just a few minutes!

Here are a couple of videos to watch too, if you are bored. :)

Dear Grandma,

Thank you SO MUCH for the beautiful dress you made me for Christmas!  I wore it to church and got LOTS of compliments!  I love you, Grandma Wendy, and I miss you!

Love,

Kaisa

Oops

14 Feb

At Everett’s birthday party yesterday, my mother-in-law pointed out a mistake we made a YEAR ago and I’d like to publicly correct it.

Everett’s birth announcements showed his birth date as February 9th, 2008.  He was, in fact, born on Feburary 9th, 2009.  Hard to believe neither Nathan or I caught that in all our reviews of the card before printing it. Oops.

Sorry, Everett, you can’t be 2 yet.
