Joel loves the library!  I wonder why I don't just glue our train track together and attach it the table since he would play for hours on this.  He's too focused to even look up for a picture.

Jeremy brought Jake into a snow fort that some of his students built at school.  Apparently senior boys still dig forts!  Only now they are big enough that 5 year olds can stand upright and there are 3 rooms included!

Aaahhhhh!!!  This is what I come home to on Wednesdays.  A CLEAN house!  I LOVE having someone clean for me.  It eliminates so much stress!!!!!

Yes, Joel is licking the window.  And yes, the window is covered in marker.  I guess we have a theme going on here!  Although this time it was allowable since we have markers specifically for coloring on windows.

You think we would learn - now Joel colored the wall with crayons.  Thank goodness for Mr. Clean Magic Erase!!

Avery found one of Jake's markers on the floor...and attempted to put on some lipstick with it!  Or just eat it.

My hat finally arrived in the mail!  I've been wanting one of these for quite a while and Jeremy has highly discouraged it.  He calls them "cougar hats."  This was my look of pure excitement right after I opened the package...now I'm not really sure when and how to wear it.  Although maybe I'm still cool just for owning one?

Daddy and Jakey sitting in the school auditorium.  They went to see the school play!

Avery's first big-kid bath and she has to share the tub!

Haircut day!  Although he looks good (and really needed it!) this haircut makes him look so old!!!

Posing in her John Deere shirt - especially for Oma and Opa!

It's Monday and the kids are too sick for me to go work.  So what do I do with unexpected extra time?  Make homemade pretzels!!!  On the left - cinnamon pretzels (dirty pretzels) and on the right, salty ones.  Delicious!

Snowman building day!  Too bad Jake wouldn't cooperate for a picture...

We have a sick household.  Joel was just running a fever, but fell asleep in the morning while watching TV.

Avery loves to eat!  Notice her hands are moving?  She gets so excited her hands go flying every time she eats!

Silly kid!  That hat is even too small for Avery!

Joel loves garlic bread - mostly because he likes to eat the center out and leave the crust.
