27 February
The last day of vacation......- Trevor learned how to go up by himself on the chairlift and he is just awesome at skiing now.
- we skied in powder for the first time (challenging)
- the daycare worked out really well today for the two little ones (it was cold), Lucas stayed for the late afternoon which gave the big people a refreshing break to get tons of afternoon runs in.
- Breanna got up on skiis and took two runs down the bunny slope (and was pretty happy about it!) Awesome:)
- They ALL fell asleep in the car on the way home:)

Today....I took the boys tubin'! We went with our good friends and the kids all had a blast. Breanna would have loved it too except there has to be at least 1 adult to ride with each kid under 4 feet tall and I was it for my crew (J had to work) . the tubes went REALLY fast, it was so fun. We have lots of other fun stuff planned for the rest of the week too.... a Red Claws basketball game tomorrow, maybe the movies, bowling, and skiing on Sunday. We're going to have a fun week!

Today....was all about bringing three kids everywhere. I'll tell you, I like them a lot better when I DON'T have to bring them to the grocery store or to get the car inspected (a month overdue), or to doctors appointments. At the beginning of the day, however, everyone got to pick a new book, and that seemed to carry us through the day just short of a few meltdowns. For Trevor, it's all about Calvin and Hobbes. He can't put it down. And Breanna is here at her cardiology appointment getting an EKG. The doctor (who was the one who showed up in flip flops and shorts the day she was discharged form the hospital after her heart surgery) asked me if I remembered him....he's a nice guy. Breanna was super good through all her tests and to our relief, we remain on the two year plan. We'll see you when she is 8:)....... EIGHT, oh my .

The age right in between little and big. Sometimes you want us to read you picture books and cuddle and watch PBS, other times you want to listen to YOUR music, say you're bored, roll your eyes, and call your friends. But, you still need us (and want us around). The age right in between little and big is good.

Today, the boys had a project. They had to fix Trevor's hockey net that got run over by the car last Fall. Then, after it was rebuilt, unexpectedly, all the kids flocked to the garage, for pretty much the entire afternoon. I tell you, anything they can do together without fighting for a whole afternoon....I'll take it! Happy February vacation to me:)

Saturday.And like any normal Saturday, we are divided in many directions (sometimes we need three of us) supporting our children in their loves. Today , J got to witness a dance performance and me a double header in indoor soccer. and the littlest? Well, he was a bit under the weather with a cold today (which is why I was wishing there were three of us....one to stay home with the tired cranky one...). We also met up for a special lunch afterward at our favorite local coffee shop. I Love that picture (blurry and all) of my girl doing her ballerina stretches. She's doing awesome in this class.

This girl....plays with her "Nemo and Dad" fish for hours. She likes to act out parts from her favorite movie Finding Nemo (she would watch it everyday). We used to let her watch a small part of the movie as a reward for potty training, now that she's trained, she always asks for it when she goes. What were we thinking? Sometimes she even asks me to play fish with her, but then ends up being pretty bossy on how to act out the characters the right way. She's still cute though.

Today....was all about soaking up the sun that a 44 Degree day in February brings. I sat outside and read some, played, stomped in puddles, filled trucks and buckets with the melting snow, ran down piles of snow catching a little boy and spinning him around , and we rode bikes, "long bike rides". There was, "Mom, look what I discovered" (I love that word "discovered"). Then, after the afternoon buses came, we came in and read Frog and Toad because it's our favorite book right now. I think all that took 6 hours with lunch in between, because really, what else did we really have to do that was that important?

Our upstairs kids/guest bath is finished! Someday we will change the countertop and faucets, but for now a little paint (in my favorite color) , some new medicine cabinets and some little details look wonderful:)

The other day, Lucas come up to us and said, "guess what?! We are going to have a PAJAUHMA party at school with pancakes!" it turns out he was right and he wore those pajamas the whole day and even walking down to the bus stop to pick up his brother and sister in the afternoon (it was 40 degrees and we were ready to get out the beach chairs!). How cute is this kid.

And because Bre doesn't ski with us yet, Josh took her on a date to a very special Valentine's Day Princess on Ice show and out to dinner. What a lucky little girl (who has an antibiotic rash AGAIN-poor thing!) !

Lucy, Lucky kids! They got to go skiing with Gammie and Grampa! The conditions were fantastic, and the warm lodge "beverages" were wonderful. The kids are becoming quite the skiiers, and Josh even took Lucas down the "double black diamond" (I have know idea how he does it). What a fun and amazing day!
