Father/Son Ski Weekend

The day before the boys left-- only happy smiles.

 The next day.

 

 

 

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 This picture is after a full night of stomach flu, a trip to the ER, IV and zofran.

Poor kid was determined to go tubing.

The next day was MUCH better.  Andrew skied all by himself!

Pretty sure the boys had a great time bonding.  Hopefully, the memories of the ER will fade quickly.

First (and last) Snowfall

Andrew & Liam saw these big fat flakes start to fall, and ran around like wild crazies playing soccer in the snow.

Don't Be Jealous

We said goodbye to the MDX, and said hello to the mini-van. I am in mourning, but this van is pretty sweet. Don't judge it's awesomeness until you go for a ride.

A Commercial Break

Today's blog is brought to you by Lulu in a tutu.

Strange Days

Poor Andrew had some strange chest pain, so we went to the doc to run some tests. The "crazy spaghetti" was an EKG, which revealed nothing out of the ordinary. Basically, the docs said he looks fine, so the verdict was that a choking incident earlier in the day caused the chest spasms. Add 15 more gray hairs for mom.

DIY Spa Treatment

I like to scare Andrew. Always a fun pre-bedtime event.

Step 1: apply face mask
Step 2: run in bathroom and scream like a banshee
Step 3: watch kid loose his mind

After he regained his composure, he wanted a spa treatment, too. So here we are in all our glory.

Lu's First Haircut

Lucy was getting pretty shaggy, so it was time for a trim. She liked sitting in the police car and having her hair "prettied." The lady gave Lucy her first real hairdo complete with a butterfly clip. Mommy has trouble doing hair, so this was a new experience.

Andrew needed a trim, too.

Much much better!

Why do the dogs follow Lu around the house?
Not sure, but the doggy treat bag is now empty.

Introducing for the very first time before an American audience...
ANDREW the MAGNIFICENT!
He can pull a rabbit out of his hat and magically disappear when the playroom needs to be picked up. AMAZING!

This is a girl who loves her accessories.
