Monkey See--Monkey Do

This "bridge" is one of Ezekiel's favorite things to do--I just can never seem to grab the camera in time to capture it-- Finally got one shot!

Little Mister

War Paint

Sara's K-5 class went to the Minneapolis Children's Museum. She had a ball and came home painted all over--she did most of this lovely artwork herself:)

Mealtime or Playtime?

Exploring Books

Stuck!

Faces

Physical Therapy with Ellen

I am getting behind on my blogging again. . .This post is a little dated. Ezekiel started crawling the day of this video and hasn't stopped since! Poor guy gets himself in all kinds of interesting predicaments!

Three-Ring Circus

Sara's K-5 class put on a circus for the parents and grandparents. Sara was a tight-rope walker. Sara's teacher, Mrs. Brown, did a great job planning and organizing this fun time for them. The kids loved it!

Sara and her friend Hannah

Sara and Jonas

The kids were all eager to get started!

All by myself

Contemplation

Brothers

Mr. Independent

Ezekiel is already attempting to dress himself--he really is growing up way too fast!!

SNOW

Believe it or not, with all the snow we get in Minnesota, this was only the seconed time this winter that the kids were able to really play in the snow. The temperatures are just TOO cold most of the time--they were very excited to get out and play!

A Child's Hand

I cannot draw to save my life! Usually when the kids ask me to draw something for them, unless it's a flower or a butterfly, I send them to Matt. Sara has put me to shame, not that I'm surprised. . .here are her pictures of George Washington and Abraham Lincoln that she drew in school. (K-5) I was quite impressed! Perhaps Sara got some artistic ability from her daddy,(or maybe her Uncle Tony) b/c she certainly didn't get it from me!!

Prison Break

Ezekiel got into the habit of scooting himself backwards in order to get back into sitting position. He somehow manages to get himself in the worst predicaments. I was busy in the kitchen and looked over to find him trapped underneath the chair. He actually was quite content under there for a little while, so I grabbed the camera. I eventually rescued him after he started getting frustrated.

"Hmm. . . Now What?!"

Cute Stuff

The Happy Elf

This is one of our favorite outfits. It was a gift from a family in our church. Matt thinks Ezekiel looks like a little elf with the hood up.
