Brrrrr

We woke up to snow again this morning, brrrr! We were headed to the Library and I thought it would be cute to wear our scarves. There was no resistance, success! CUTE.

Dinner Table

Owen asked me Monday night if he could sit at the table for dinner. I said of course......and wondered if the last three years he has felt left out sitting at his high chair. Surely I was thinking way too far into the comment, but none-the-less we are all eating around the dinner table now. Bye-Bye special high chairs that Great Grandpa Lloyd and Papa Rob made. Molly will need an extra one soon! (to see special high chair click here)

The Tuomisto's Visit

Friday - The Tuomisto's Arrive and Molly, Sean and Parker come out for dinner and some play time. Kai and Mayli brought Christmas presents too. Look at my Super Why!Saturday - We head to the Children's Museum for a fun filled day.
The kids meet Curious George....Claire NOT interested!
Giant Light Brite...do you remember these? So cool!
More lights activities
The clay room.
The water room was probably the kiddos favorite stop!
This room is called the tree house, it was one of my favorites. It had hollow logs and leaf pillows for the kids to play on and read books in.
Next Stop the parking lot for lunch... It was a beautiful cold day.
Back into the museum for some grocery shopping. We could not get Claire and Mayli out of here. Meanwhile the boys were building log houses.
Last stop is the Dig Pit. The entire area is filled with rubber shavings and is filled with diggers and shovels. Very cool!
We got home around 2:00. Tried to put the kids down for a snoozer (Owen is the only one that napped....CRAZY) and then made Funny-Faced Pizzas. This idea came from Owen and Claire's Highlights magazine from the JoJo's (Brad's Grandpa Jim and Grandma Gloria). Next was baths..... ....a short movie, and BED!!!!
Sunday - was spent entirely outside. The kids bundled up for some dirty, muddy Clark house fun. We roasted hot dogs around the fire pit for lunch and then the Tuomisto Family headed home.
What a great weekend. Thanks Ryean, Ryan, Kai and Mayli for a super fun weekend!

Soccer

Owen started soccer last Thursday. He did so good. They warmed up, ran forwards, ran backwards, kicked balloons, and ended with kicking actual soccer balls. He did GREAT. We will be working on running backwards and our dribbling this week. We are looking forward to these new and exciting adventures as our babies grow up. Claire was wanting desperately to be on the field, in fact she made it out there a few times. I think we will probably sign her up for the next session. FUN!

Weekend Highlights

Here is my last post form our Sprague family weekend.....we just had so much fun! Everyone was here Thursday through Sunday. We were busy, but had quite a bit of relaxing at home time too. Here are some pics of the kids riding bikes in the garage, Claire feeding Parker (so sweet, so messy), Poker night ("the card sharks"), and Levi's Birthday/Promotion Celebration.
