Dusty

Dayton likes riding on Dusty. I like it that he likes it because it buys me at least a few minutes of time when I suggest that he play on Dusty.

I love this profile of him laughing!

Curls

Look at those curls!

Shades

Dayton’s rockin’ the shades!

Cousin Time

Jordan and I watched Kyle, Ryan, and Evan while Stephen and Mel went out of town for a few days. We had lots of good cousin time. 

Breakfast Time (Those boys love cereal. On about day 3, Claire asked why we were having cereal so much. I told her it was because the boys like it so much!)

Mardi Gras Time

Art Time (Kyle made all sorts of monsters).

Map Time (Kyle was interested to see five states over - where his parents were).

Movie Time

Outside Time

Uncle Bando Time

More Uncle Bando Time

Silly Time

Random Pictures

Here are lots of random pictures from both the recent and not so recent past.

The mustaches that occasionally make an appearance in my life. (I’m glad they don’t last very long!)

Claire made a castle one day during her quiet time. I love her imagination!

 Dayton sleeping. So sweet.

Dayton lounging in the swing (back in November). We had the swing set aside to put in the attic, but he got in there one day.

A cute snowman Claire made at school

Back in December, I went to Claire’s school on the day they performed the nativity for parents. When they practiced, the kids took turns being all sorts of different characters in the story. The day of the performance, Claire was the angel, and Ryan was a shepherd.

Dayton at the park

Claire at Blue Baker during the play group tour. She decorated this bread dough, and they baked it for us. I picked it up later, and it was very tasty!

Claire has been dressing up in my closet lately. She’ll say, “Don’t look at me!” and then come out with a cute, crazy, or silly outfit made up of my clothes and accessories.
