We hope winter is almost over. After all, the groundhog actually saw his shadow this year. We've been busy and having alot of fun. Had dinner over at our neighbor's house, the Carroll's. Noah and Kira get along great as you can see. We almost got kicked out!
We had a great Superbowl Sunday. We had a picnic dinner of little hot dogs, dips, and all sorts of fun food. Including making Superbowl Sundaes for dessert!
Loving the picnic
Bored with the game! (look at Sophie's hair--not only is it staying really blonde, it's starting to get curly).
Radnor Valley opened again after being closed for January. We like going there for lunch on the weekends. These two actually are nice to each other
This kid has the life. Every Friday night Noah and Kathy watch Wipeout in our room before bed. Noah looks quite comfortable, doesn't he?
Sophie has become David's Chili buddy. On Monday night Kathy takes Noah to Karate and for pizza, and David and Sophie have dinner together. Sophie loves chili! I said "Sophie, we're having dinner together tonight" and she wanted to know "are we going to have Chili?"
And she like all kinds of dip. Eating a spicy buffalo chicken dip on celery!
Let's go fishing.
Noah just loves reading. He is ready a book of fun poems by Shel Silverstein called "Where the Sidewalk Ends". Of course, he should be eating breakfast. He just finished a 3 book series about 1) Origami Yoda, 2) Darth Paper, and 3) The Fortune Wookie. You have to be a Star Wars fan to get it, but they're a series of books about these silly kids in school who make Star Wars figures out of Origami, and they seem to be real and powerful! Right now he's reading "Big Nate, In a Class By Himself"
This week Noah did a fundraiser at Karate; Kicks for Cancer. Here he is with Mr Schychtel breaking boards to raise money for St Judes. He broke about 7 boards with all sorts of different moves. Don't get in his way!
We've been busy but all looking forward to warmer weather. Let's all hug together!
A few more pictures from Sophie's second birthday. To get ready for the big party, Kathy took her to get her nails painted. This was the first time she got her nail done. She sure doesn't look 2 years old does, she??
At the party, we played this jumping game. from left to right is Kira, Birthday Girl Sophie, Molly, Mommy, and Hudson (in one of Noah's old shirts!)
Happy New Year, 2013 everyone!! We went to the Adventure Aquarium for a NY Eve party.
Counting down!
In the meantime, we got to see some fishies...
At 6pm, Philadelphia has the first of its 2 fireworks shows. The aquarium is right on the waterfront, and these were front row seats! Even if they were very very cold seats! Sophie was adorable about this. She just looked up at one point and said "I never never seen fireworks before"
Ohhhh. Ahhhh.
Then inside to the dance party.
We are trying a new way to upload videos and hopefully this will work better. At the aquarium on New Year's Eve was a dance party. Check out all the fun.
