It's too cold to play outside...

...so yesterday afternoon we went to the Ann Arbor Hands-on Museum!We had so much fun riding in the firetruck,

playing fireman

eating pretend food,and getting soaked in the water!
(good thing Mommy brought a change of clothes)Kody likes to line things up together

Kody the Liar

It's a conversation that happens at least once a day (lately it's been more like 5), and it all starts innocent enough. I begin to smell something fowl so I say:

"Who's poopy?"
Kody: "Mah-nee poopy"
Me: "it really smells like Kody poop"
Kody: "no, Mah-nee poopy"

So of course I always check Mollie first (you know, to give him the benefit of the doubt) and find that she's clean. A quick peek at Kody's behind and I know he's lied to me again! He's really quite sweet and honest any other time, he only lies about this one particular subject, but I don't think I'll worry too much about. I just laugh and change him!Does this look like a face that would lie?

Mollie Translations

Here are my words and mommy's translation so you know what I'm saying:
Da! (Daddy)
Da!Da! (Daddy when she's really excited)
mo (more)
gah (car)
gi-guh gi-guh (cookie, tickle or ka-chow depending on what she's doing)
momomom (Mommy of course!)
gak gak gak (quak quak)
uhoh (uh-oh)
bum (jump)
da (ta-da)

We love our new TOYS!

We thought it would be fun to post some pictures of us playing with our new toys that we got for Christmas!

Pretty Pretty Princess

How do I look? I got this pretty princess dress from Grandma & Grandpa B for Christmas! I wasn't really in the mood for a photo shoot, because I didn't feel well, so I think Mommy will try again on a better day. I think I still looked pretty, though!

Kody's Christmas

I had so much fun at Grandma & Grandpa's house this Christmas! I played with my cousins, spent lots of time with Daddy

and I got lots of cars and a real life Woody doll! I was so busy, I hardly slowed down to get sick. I wish it could be Christmas all the time!

Mollie's Christmas

We went to Grandma's house in Utah for Christmas. I got to practice walking a lot until ...I got sick, then Mommy was nice and held me all the time.

I felt better for Christmas morning, then I was sick again.

I'm okay now!

Who's that fat man?

See my Tabblo>

We went to the ward Christmas party last weekend and Santa was there!  Kody cut right to the front of the line and climbed on Santa's lap.  Mollie was the very last kid and she screamed like crazy as soon as I set her down!   We all got a good laugh about it, except Mollie of course.  The snow is melted now, but the kids had fun while it lasted.  I know there will be more soon!  Kody was following "animal tracks" all over, really they were his own!  Mollie was fine while she was standing, but she got a little upset when she had to crawl through the cold stuff!  We only lasted outside for about five minutes - just long enough to take some pictures! Merry Christmas!

Mollie's birthday

Go Mollie, it's your birthday!

It's my birthday today! I'm all grown up now, I can do so many things. Mommy took this video to show you some of the things I like to do. Have a great day -- I know I will!

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Happy Birthday Daddy! We love you so much and we're glad you're our Daddy. Thank you for all you do for us!

My Hero

My Daddy is my hero, and on Halloween night he proved it! He came home from school and he was Mr. Incredible! He was wearing his clothes over his costume and I was so excited when he showed me his secret identity! We had fun playing superheroes together.

A New Friend

I have a new friend now, he visits me almost every day!

I think I'll name him Nuts

I wish I could play with him

but Mommy won't open the door when he comes to say hi.

One Happy Family

This is a picture of us with Mommy and Daddy. We love our family so much!
