Snowman named "snowman" by Lindson

Lindson has been wanting to build a snowman for about a week but the snow was too dry to pack. Fortunately for him the new snow that fell last night is good to go, so we made a masterpiece in the driveway.

Lindson was proud because he helped roll and lift each ball and dictated to me where to put the eyes, nose, mouth and arms. He even named his snowman "snowman" ...he might want to work on his originality....

Colorized

Apparently the kids grew bored of their coloring books and decided to try their own version of body painting

See Sara

Lindson still can't say Sierra's name. He has a tendency to simplify her name and just say Sara. Erin and I will correct him by saying, "Lindson, Sierra is her name, can you say it like this... See-era" Lindson's response is always the same, "See Sara".

So close but yet so far

Anywho, Here are a couple of pictures of the kids earlier today when we were building a tower out of blocks

Lindson proud of his tower

And finally, here is a video that illustrates why I can't seem to keep the house very clean

I've been staying busy with photography despite it being the "off season". If you haven't been following my other blog you can check it out here

It has been forever...

I realize that it has been so long since we last posted that it is ridiculous...we have lots of pictures to post but here are a few that didn't take much effort to put up being they were on our desktop (I'm a little tired). Thought you all might enjoy seeing what we all look like again :). More photos and updates to come soon!

Two Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed

Except no one fell off and hit their head.

Seat drop!

Bunny hop for Sierra

I think we need to get Lindson a trampoline

Sierra's turn with two feet off the ground

Markers

I thought giving the kids markers and a coloring book would be a good distraction for them while I did the dishes but apparently I was mistaken. When I got done, I discovered Sierra trying to eat the one that smelled like Lemon and Lindson was trying his hand at face painting. Maybe next time I'll try the sticker book...

Playing in pajamas...

If we had our choice (and we do), we would always be in our pajamas in this family! Sierra and Lindson tend to spend a lot of their time in pajamas (or at least in clothes that resemble pajamas) and I think they look just as cute as ever. I got home early enough to see the kids tonight, which is becoming more and more rare these days, and we went out to the studio to capture some moments playing and dancing in our pajamas! It was good...until they both started bawling of course...but I enjoyed every moment of it anyway because they are too few for me these days. Enjoy the pictures of our beautifully babes!

Sierra sitting on daddy's camera case (of course) and playing with one of her many stuffed animals...

Lindson dancing to his new robot truck that plays music and dances too!

Sierra ready for the Iditarod...or just the walk to the studio :).

Wouldn't you know that Lindson's absolute FAVORITE toy right now is the mini-calculator I use for work when I am getting the "numbers" on the babies in the NICU each morning. Lindson said to me tonight, "Mommy, I getting the numbers now" as he punched in the numbers on the calculator. It was the first thing he asked me for when I walked in the door tonight, "Mommy, you got the calculator?" What a memory that boy has...too funny!
