Close quarters

I wouldn't say our home is roomy, but there is room to move inside it.



This scene made me smile.
For some reason, while playing this afternoon, all three of them decided they had to be near each other.

Baby Joshua specifically picked up his jars of playdough and placed them in front of his big brothers for a little bit of brotherly love.

Awesome!

Joshua may not say that much, but when he decides to use his words, they come out loud and clear.

We were playing with Jenga blocks yesterday, building towers with them, knocking them over.



Jason and Michael kept saying, "Awesome!"

And so did Joshua.




His little voice kept yelping, "Awesome!" while the demolition took place.



Meanwhile, Michael The Ham, took center stage when the camera moved in his direction.



The boys quieted down to welcome Grace back in the house. Look how big she's gotten!

Have a great weekend!

Happy about haircuts

They may not all be looking at the camera, and maybe one of them shouldn't be (ahem, Michael). But you can see the boys received some much-needed haircuts yesterday.

And lollipops. And M&Ms. Because that's what happens at the barber shop.



We were happy to have Amah and Akong visit us for the weekend.




Joshua, of course, was pleased with all the attention showered on him.



But, we didn't see a true smile until we brought out dessert.
He does have a sweet tooth, that one.

My snow angels

It certainly doesn't look like the beach here, does it?



The boys almost didn't know how to react.



Once they got bundled up, Jason and Michael eventually got the hang of it.

Snowball fights.
Running around.
Screaming.





Poor Joshua just got the screaming part out of his system.




He didn't like the cold, he didn't like the boots on top of the peacoat and hat. He really didn't like being hit in the face with a snowball.



No surprises here. Michael and Jason lasted a little bit longer outside than their baby brother.
