Snow

This is Logan and Lyla's first time playing in the snow this year. And it is Lyla's first real time out in the snow. She enjoyed it, but her snow clothes keep her from being able to move about very well. The snow is several inches deep, but it has melted and been refrozen so it is pretty solid. The kids are so light that they just stay right on top of the snow.
Logan climbed up the mountain of snow left by the snow plow.
Lyla's hands don't quite come to the ends of her coat sleeves, but she managed to eat the snow any way. she put her sleep don't into a hole of loosened snow and then ate the snow that was on the end of her sleeve when she pulled it out.
Trying to figure out these boots.

Lyla wanted to be like Logan and climb the mountain, too. They had lots of fun and didn't want to go in for lunch and naptime.

Logan

Logan is very shy at times, and very rambunctious at others. He is soft-hearted and cuddly and such a goof!

The other day when it was snowing, Lyla ran off after I got her out of the bath. She was amazed by the falling snow outside. Logan loves to copy (anyone and anything) and so he decided to join his sister at the window to watch the snow. They were so cute standing there together with their little bare bums I just had to take a picture. I can't imagine what someone would think seeing the picture from the other side of the door! This one's going in the wedding video!!


When ever I get the camera out to take a picture of Lyla, Logan has to make sure he gets a picture too. He will ask me to take a picture of whatever toy he is currently playing with. He's so cute, I just can't NOT take a picture!


Take a picture of me mom!

Logan loves Lyla and loves to play with her, but is often a little bit rough. He doesn't seem to understand the concept of gentle. Most of the time, just when he passes the "ok" level of roughness, just as I'm about to pull them apart, that is when Lyla is laughing and having the most fun.

Logan loves to watch Veggie Tales at his Aunt Sharon's house. This particular night, both Aunt Sharon and Daddy fell alseep while Logan was watching the video.

Lyla

Sillly girl!

Rocking in the chair again. With a great big smile! I love her dimples. When people meet her, the most popular choice of words is "What a doll!"

Radiant in Red. Go UTES!!


Lyla is walking all over, she couldn't wait to walk so she could keep up with her brother and cousins.

Our little one is such a climber. She loves to climb up on Logan's bed and play, and she is so proud of herself!
Reading books with Daddy. Both the kids love Daddy so much. All they have to do is hear the door open and they scream "Daddy!" and run to him. I've never seen Lyla literally JUMP to her feet before until she heard Daddy come home last night!

Climbing on the bed again!

Those who have tried to dress Lyla know just how fast she can get away from you. Like most little kids, she prefers to be undressed and will escape as fast as she can, giggling and running away as fast as she can.

Halloween

Ok, so we're a little behind in getting these pics up! We had a fun party with family for Haloween, Even Sean's Dad dressed up! :O) This pic is to show family resemblance!


Ashley is a dolly, Sean is a "cereal" killer, Logan is Jack (Jack skellington from Nightmare Before Christmas), and Lyla, our little dragon, is trying to pull her hood off.
