SNOW!!!!!

It snowed here for about 10 minutes.  Good thing AK has snow boots!

Cooking

One day we made cornbread.

And then we made pizza.

Occupying Our Time

It's been very cold here and Lila was sick all last week, so we spent a lot of time inside trying to come up with different ways to entertain ourselves.

coloring on a cardboard box - always good for an our or so of entertainment

AK did a 60 piece puzzle!

waving at the construction workers in our driveway

playing with fake sand in the sand & water table (messy!)

snacks on the floor

Lila discovering the joy of pulling all the DVDs off the shelf - one of AK's favorite activities when she was little

Can she stack 6 blocks?  Yes.  Yes she can.

Merry Go Round at the mall

Daddy built this - mostly by himself

sanding

Valentine's Day

Lila's class (toddlers from 12 - 18 months) had a sweetheart dance with the young 3s class (one below AK).  It was very cute, although there wasn't much dancing.  There were snacks. And running in circles.  A LOT of running in circles.

This didn't end well - everyone involved was soaked

AK checking out the Vday loot from her classmates (mostly fruit snacks & lollipops)
