Early December

The first half of December was pretty quiet. The weather has turned very cold, so going outside is difficult. Because of that, we're getting creative with things for Calvin to do. This was cookie day, introducing him to the joys of eating cookie dough. He liked it!

One of our only weekly activities, and the highlight of Calvin's week is story time at the public library. They spend about 45 minutes singing these sweet little songs that Cal and I then have to "pact-ice" all week. He's super attentive and absolutely LOVES it!

We've also had quite a bit of beautiful snow fall this month ... Calvin and Henry are watching it out the window. Sweet boys.

Another new game ... I don't know for sure what it is but it involves lots of water and cups and pouring.

Dear sweet Kees, about 6 weeks. He is so strong!

A beautiful sunrise.


Calvin's first snowman! Built with loving help from his Grandma.

Getting bigger! 7 weeks or so.

Lots and lots of kisses from brother.

Snuggles with mommy!


Hugging on daddy.

Bath time! Calvin's job is to stand next to me and say "it's okay brother" whenever Kees cries. He's very good at it!
