Merry Christmas!

 

Winter fun

Just playing in the snow and throwing snow balls at each other

Dad and the boys made a snow bunny. I said something to Timmy about it and his response was "It's horrible. It's waaaaay yucky!"
Of course, a few hours later he said it was "very pretty"...

Getting sled rides behind the Ranger

Jacob found this toy tractor on a string and he's been using it as a censer, going throughout the house singing and incensing everything and everyone he sees.

My two vacuum buddies

Nothing is more fun than piling on top of Dad!

This and that

We've had some gorgeous weather lately (temps in the low 50's!) so we headed to the lake for a hike. We've never gone hiking in December before. :) The lake was mostly frozen over so when the boys threw their rocks, they bounced off the ice instead of sinking - that was a first!

Getting out for a walk

Helping Dad with the firewood

Concentrating on digging the dirt with his backhoe

It had been awhile since we'd taken the "floor picture", so we did it again.

And we weighed everyone:

Jacob: 36.8 lbs (79th percentile)

Timmy: 27.2 lbs (30th percentile)

Michael: 18.2 lbs (5th percentile)

David: 18.2 lbs (53rd percentile)

...yes, Mike and Dave are the exact same weight! Though Mike feels much lighter.
