We've Been Busy...

Here's another catch-up post where, instead of telling complete stories (which takes too much time that I don't have), I'll let the pictures do the talking with brief captions. We've been quite busy since my last post, having lots of fun with family and friends...

Most of the Beaudoin clan, plus other families/friends, who attended the second annual sledding party at Grandpa B's last weekend - a rare group photo. The weather was awesome and we had a blast! We drank coffee and hot chocolate outside, and cooked hotdogs over the huge fire.

Sliding down the long hill; walking and riding up the other side

Snuggling with Grandma

Working on grooming the trail a bit more - the snow was soft and powdery, so it didn't pack down as easily


One of the boys brought trucks to share to play with outside. Jackson kept calling them all racecars. He did a great job that day, staying outside with us for over 4 hours! There were plenty of Cheetos to eat, so he was happy. :)

Here's Andrew trying to get the fire going. He and Curt finally fanned it to life with the sleds!

The next few photos are from our house. Andrew and Brea were up for the weekend, along with our college buddy Chee, and we got to enjoy some outside time in the snow-covered yard.

Maybe if they stare at it long and hard enough, the frozen shed door will magically open. Or maybe Sadie can bark it open.

This is how to have a good time in the snow, and...

this is a not-so-good time.

Later - thank goodness there were plenty of Doritos to keep him happy.

And these next few are from Grandma Paula and Papa's trip up for an overnight in the middle of one week - a nice change of pace for us!

Jackson likes to be a little helper now that he's cool with Carter being around :)

In the tub, showing off to Grandma & Papa his mad skillz at identifying letters and numbers. Aren't those cool? They stick to the walls of the tub! (Moms: they're available at Target)

Still doing a great job in the big-boy bed

Our boys, enjoying a good book with Daddy...

and a snuggle with Mommy...

and Grandma.

Tummy time
