Ryan's 5th Birthday

Ryan celebrated his birthday with Mommy and Daddy and his brothers at Red Robin.  He then came home to have Scooby Doo birthday cake and open presents.

The best was his birthday party the following weekend at Chuck E Cheese's with his friends from school.  He sang, danced, played balloon guitar, did the ticket grab and played tons of games. He then came home and got his first pair of cowboy boots from Peapooh.  There still a little big, but he will grow into them.

Coloring

Adam and Nathaniel recently discovered coloring.  They really enjoy scribbling if we can keep the crayons out of their mouths.  They even shared a page for a couple minutes.

 

 

 

Snow

This winter we have had A LOT of snow and COLD!  Ryan has only gone out for a few minutes at a time and Adam and Nathaniel finally experience a little.  They enjoyed Ryan dragging them up and down the street in the laundry basket.

Writing His Name

Ryan is improving everyday (thanks to school) with writing his name.  He is happy to sign a card or show off his skills.

Illness

Adam and Nathaniel had quite the cold in the early part of January.  Unfortunately they had to sit through the nebulizer (which we are all too familiar with because of Ryan).  Nathaniel did great and just sat there with his buddy (aka - pacifier).

Christmas 2013

The boys had so much fun at Christmas.  Santa made several drops unloading toys and gifts.  There was a lot of play and fun.

Christmas Performance

 

Ryan performed with his class  at the Christmas program at school.  His class sang "Away in a Manager" and "Jingle Bells" while shaking the bells.  Ryan did a great job! 

 

He also made an ornament that will hang on our tree for many years to come.

 

 

Ornament Hunt

Adam and Nathaniel went on their first "hunt" looking for ornaments.  Ryan separated from his brothers to a bigger kid group and also went on a hunt.  They all had fun picking them up and trying to keep them in their baskets.

Wordless Thursday

A Visit with Santa

We took the boys to see Santa at Yankee Candle.  Nathaniel was not happy at first, but warmed up to Santa.  Adam was unsure, but he smiled.  Ryan told Santa everything he wanted and also told Santa what to bring his brothers.
