These January Days

It's cold outside! Burrrr! And we are just staying cozy and warm inside on these January days. Carson is back to school and Kylie and I are digging into letters, sounds, and counting once again. I am very thankful for Austin's morning nap. I'm guessing it isn't going to last a whole lot longer, so Kylie and I have to work hard while we have the opportunity. Here are some snapshots from this past month:

Carson is getting much better about trying to dress himself and actually getting his appendages in their proper opening. I had to laugh when he came to me like this:

Kylie recovering from a little tummy bug.
Isn't this so sweet? Daddy makes everything better.
(And just to answer that burning question mostly for my side of the family...yes, Kaycee washed his hands afterwards.)
This little man LOVES his daddy to pieces.






Austin's second love is FOOD. Seriously. This boy wants what we have...finally!


The cramming action!





Don't you love the cute little squat?

I cannot get this boy to keep his socks on for anything. So, this little man goes barefoot these cold winter days. Somehow, his feet still manage to stay warm.



I LOVE this picture. These kids attack their dad when he arrives home from work. He is missed dearly as you can probably tell.
"I'm a big boy now".




Carson's attempt to straighten his hair :)

Watching daddy.


Morning good-bye hugs.
Carson loves to try to "fix" things. Here, he is "fixing" his chain saw with the screwdriver.




I thought Carson might be our only real binky lover. Nope. This boy takes after his brother.

Three binkies in hand don't even bring happiness. But daddy does!
A hard worker in the making!

We've been working on some projects around here! I hope to have pictures posted in the next week or so of our dining room transformation. Check back!
