A Photo a Day

WEEk 4 [jan 22-28]

JAN 22 (TUE)- Ken brought home cupcakes (thanks to the many wonderful birthdays of his students).  This time, the cupcakes had rings on top!  The kids were so pumped.  They didn't last long- both were stepped on within 24 hours, but it was so fun to see them with their new accessories!

JAN 23 (WED)- Moira's clothing has been getting a little shorter lately but it wasn't until the kids were standing side by side that I realize she hit a growth spurt.  Isaac was "catching" up to his sister, but she has just shot up recently!  Looks like we need to get some new clothes- unfortunately for us- it's tough to find clothes for a string bean like her with such a skinny waist and long legs!  (I pray this is a trait that stays with her for the long haul!)

JAN 24 (THURS)- I made stir fry for dinner.  Isaac wasn't a fan (as you can see by the rice that he constantly kept spitting out!  Moira didn't care for it either.  It was a new recipe.  Needless to say, we won't be making that kind of stir fry again and Moira and Isaac had frozen waffles for dinner!  The next meal we made with rice (sweet and sour chicken in the crockpot) was much more of a hit!

JAN 25 (FRI)- Ok, so I promised on picture a day, but today I HAD to pick 2!  Moira and Isaac have been loving the Disney movie "Alice in Wonderland."  So today, Moira asked if they could have a tea party- nothing new, but today she had to have her {PARTY} hats on- aka winter hats that look like owls.  The first tea party (picture to the left) the kids had in lieu of their morning snack, but they insisted on having another tea party when their daddy got home.  So after dinner (for dessert) we had another tea party with oreo cookies.  The picture to the left was an after shot of Isaac.  He really enjoyed his cookies!

JAN 26 (SAT)- Dinner at Grammies!  We had to reschedule after I wasn't feeling well yesterday, but it was well worth the wait!  Ken's mom made spaghetti and meatballs with a glass of smooth red wine.  The best part was cheesecake for dessert.  She even had recorded a movie for the kids to watch (Charlotte's Web) while we played games!  What a fun night!

 Jan 27 (SUN)- Well, we had a rough night last night- kids up multiple times, so we slept in and missed church.  We made blueberry muffins for breakfast and just spent the day as a family!  This was one of my favorite moments!  Cuddles are the best!
 

JAN 28 (MON)- Yesterday afternoon snow flurries and ice came to WI.  Today, the sunshine came and melted it away! So we took the opportunity to take a walk.  But, kids will be kids and the WILL FIND puddles!
