Spring Break 2011

I realized that if I write this post it will prove how far behind I actually am on my posts. You can always tell when I'm working and when I have time off just by how often I post things on the blog. Spring Break has been fun for our family.

Monday: Played in the gym (basketball) at Moffitt with the Heacock's, lunch at Wendy's
Tusday: Wildlife Safari, Uncle Bryan's birthday @ Red Robin
Wednesday: Simon went fishing, I started sewing, Three baby photo sessions @ Tom's
Thursday: My mom and I went shopping in Portland, Date night @ The Steelhead with
Brett and Laura
Friday: We went to the Science Factory with the Roper's, Small Group at our house

At the end of Spring Break Solomon said his favorite thing was going to Mimi's house. Apparently nothing can top Mimi's.

My Baby Sister Ezra

Solomon has been super affectionate towards Ezra lately. It's been fun to watch as a mom. He told his grandma tonight, "Grandma, this is my baby sister Ezra!" Once we got home from grandmas I was getting ready to put Ezra to sleep. Solomon said, "Wait, I want to give her a hug and a kiss goodnight." As he was hugging and kissing her he said, "Ezra, you're my best girl in the whole wide world." It was one of those melt your heart moments. I realized if I didn't write it down somewhere I would probably forget about it. It's also so I have evidence when he's older and needs to be reminded that he loves his little sister.

Cousin Pictures


My cousin Dannika sewed all our kids matching Christmas outfits. The kids looked so cute in them. They were my favorite Christmas outfits ever. I'm going to have to start ordering my Christmas outfits through her every year. I am so blessed to have such a wonderful and talented cousin.

Snow Cabin


Our family goes to Sunriver during Christmas break each year. Solomon now calls it the snow cabin. It's a nice relaxing end to the hustle and bustle of the Christmas season. Ezra didn't make it out to play in the snow because she was sick and usually taking a nap. All the more snow for Solomon (to eat).

Merry Christmas


Here is our 2011 Christmas picture! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Rubba Dub Dub


Ezra likes taking baths without Solomon. She doesn't get dunked under water, splashed in the face, bubble lathered all over her head, etc. She can actually enjoy splashing and kicking on her own.

Thanksgiving


Thanksgiving was Solomon's favorite holiday this year. The Dow's came down from Washington and the Whites came over from Bend. Solomon had lots of cousins there to play with. The kids got to act out the First Thanksgiving. It was total chaos but the kids loved it. Solomon said, "I'm thankful for Mimi." Big surprise!
