Where to start

So much has been going on in the last 5 months.  Yes, it's been 5 months (more actually) since our last post.  I'm going to try my best to summarize things with iPhone photos so we can look back and remember what our kids were up to.  But I think I have to make a new plan for updating this thing.  More on that later.  So back to February 2014.....

It remained brutally cold and I believe we had at least one cancelled work day for cold, again.  I won't complain.  We celebrated Valentine's day by taking the kids bowling and making a heart-shaped cake.  Alice seems to enjoy being at the bowling alley despite being confined to a high chair most of the time (maybe next year she can bowl).  And Evan loves it, although he has to bring a fleet of trucks to occupy himself when it's not his turn to bowl.

Smiling girl, even though her brother was trying to unload every possible toy from her toy bins into her lap that morning.

Pretty sure she's poking his eye out here.  Neither of them have boundaries with rough housing.

Mixing up some banana bread with mommy.  Check out his apron full of tools.
