Brotherly Love

JJ loves his Legos and of course Ben will do anything to get ahold of them! But Jeremiah is finally warming up to the idea of having a brother. Ben loves to follow JJ around the house and loves to watch what JJ is doing. JJ is not always the happiest with Ben, but does enjoy chasing him around and getting him to laugh. The love is slowly starting to grow between them! Below is a picture I took of the two boys hanging out together playing with Legos (JJ playing and Ben attempting to grab them)!

Ben's Newest Skill

Over this long snowy weekend, Ben has managed to come up with a new talent to show off! His ability to raise his hand to speak!! Just kidding! He just seemed to take to raising his hand every once in awhile for no particual reason. He could be sitting on the floor or sitting in his highchair, it wouldn't matter where he was or what he was doing the hand would just go up! It was too cute, so I of course took a few pics!

SNOW! SNOW! And more SNOW!!!

Those of us in Wisconsin have had our fair share of snow this year! The most recent batch of storms started on Thursday (Feb.14). We had 9 inches of snow dumped on us (of course school was dismissed early). Then three days later (Feb. 17) we had another 5-6 inches of snow dumped on us AGAIN! Luckily, this was the year that Mark insisted that we buy a snowblower! Thank goodness we did! Below are some pictures of all our blessed snow! Please send us an email if you would like us to send you some! LOL!


These first few pictures are of JJ attempting to walk out on our back deck! He basically slid down the steps and coming back up the steps was quite a feat for him!

The picture below is of JJ and Mark out in the front of the house. Jeremiah is hunting for buried treasure:) He is such a big help when we go out to shovel the driveway:)
