Historic Littleton Museum

We went into Downtown Littleton to see the Historic Littleton Museum. Here are the pictures:

Happy Birthday Keith

Happy Birthday to Keith. We celebrated his birthday with Chicago style pizza, chicken pasta salad, spicy chicken wings, and they best homemade chocolate cake made by Becky Knowles.

New Stuff

We got this sail boat sandbox on Craigslist for FREE, and the kids love it. I decided that we won't put any sand in it till springtime, but they just love to play in it and eat lunch in it. I put about 1 inch of water in it and they played in the sandbox (and got completely wet) for hours; which allowed Matt and I to watch most of conference.

Jonah fell asleep watching Wonder Pets.

They know this is a rule: Don't climb in the crib. They do it anyway, and Matt thinks it's funny.

We now have to make sure to tuck in all our chairs or this happens. We have a climber now. The chair tucking in only partially matters though because Tyrel has learned how to grab on and pull them out by himself. He loves pounding on the computer keyboard and sitting on top of the table.

Playing in the sandbox again, only this time they thought it would be a great idea to bring my one nice pan out with all of their play food.

Our nice new red astroturf that we scored for FREE on craigslist as well. Good bye slivers!

Whenever I tell the kids to say 'cheese' for a picture, this is what Tyrel does.

My new haircut.

more pictures

Here are just some pictures of what we've been up to:

Jonah and Tyrel watching a movie while Mikelle is at preschool...they sure miss her while she is gone.

Cuddle time with Mommy

Jonah fell asleep while in the middle of a game

Matt tried to wake him up, but gave up when Jonah wouldn't even wake up while doing this:

Matt took these pictures of Jonah after his haircut.

Playing dress up (I love that they are holding hands)

Jonah's FAVORITE toys...all the Toy Story gang

sneak peak while he is playing

Invited to see the new Tinkerbell movie at a friend's house, and of course, she had to dress up.

Sorry for the picture overload on this one; but I thought it was so cute. Mikelle fell asleep, and when Tyrel noticed, he climbed on the couch and snuggled right up to her by himself. Then Jonah did. I didn't put them there.

Snuggling

Then Tyrel tries to wake her up

Then he sits on her to wake her up

Then he pushes her off...she was awake at this point and kind of 'helped' Tyrel push her off, but he had fun doing it

At the park

Tyrel LOVES the sandbox

Jonah

(the battery ran out just as I was focusing in on Mikelle, so I didn't get any pictures of her at the park)
