Snow!

We had the first snow of the season today. James was unbelievably excited. We spent quite a bit of time outside together playing, shoveling, making snow angels and walking Frank. Luke joined in for a little bit. I think he liked the snow, but wasn’t as big of a fan of the cold.

Food for Luke

After a great 4-month check up, Luke’s doctor gave us the green light to start him on some basic food. First up, milky avocados. He’s a natural eater.

Baby Bear

I spent some quality time outdoors with Luke today – his cute little baby bear blanket/outfit kept him warm and cozy, allowing him to be one cute and happy little guy.

Alphabet

I found this on the fridge today – it looks like James was working on the alphabet, and made it pretty far before either getting stuck or bored. Who says that it needs to go from left to right?

Child Artist

James has recently developed some artistic skills – he’s become proficient at drawing humanoid figures. I’m really digging his signature too – it’s a bit different every time, but all of the essentials are in there. Pretty good for a 3 year old, I think.

Belated Happy Birthday to Frank

I’ve been meaning to post this one for a while now. We’ve had Frank for 6 years now. We’re guessing (wildly) that he was about a year old when we got him. We know that he came to Milwaukee from Lebanon, Kentucky – we can only guess what happened in his life before that. Chances are he had some fun and adventures that we’ll never know about. Happy #7 Frank!
