Evie partied with her friends at Chuck E Cheese

She had asked for a birthday cake this year, so I was thrilled to find a local bakery that made an egg-free, milk-free cake.

Way Back Whensday

Evie and Andrew's good friend, Kate, is going to be a big sister this spring, so we have spent a lot of time over the past few weeks talking about babies and all the things they need. Below are pictures of the kids in my very favorite baby gear item. Thank you Fisher Price for the cradle swing...I could kiss you for designing this calming device. It was a lifesaver for babies with colic and reflux. Definitely the best money we ever spent!

The Pick Up Line

Andrew was playing with his train set yesterday morning while I was getting ready. When I went in to check on him, he told me the trains were waiting to pick up their children but the snow was slowing them down. I couldn't help but laugh. Apparently the early dismissal pickup line at Evie's school from a couple of weeks ago made quite the impression. He was reenacting our hour long wait on Schaad Road while it was pouring snow.

Enough snow

You know we have had enough snow and cold weather when Phil asks the kids if they want to go on a walk in the snow and after and Andrew replies, "Let's go to the beach."

We learned icicles shatter when you throw them,

it is fun to stomp around in our boots,

and walks in the snow are extremely cold!

Library card

Evie got her very own library card today. She was very excited about it!
