Ice, Ice and my baby’s!

Come on you know you were just singing MC Hammer  right now! Here are some pictures of us making the best of the ice outside and more pictures of us hanging out inside trying to stay warm.  The town had pretty much been shut down.  Brad is off work and Bradley is out of Preschool thanks to this ICE!

Easton toasty in bed. 

This was from Friday night.  I am proud to say that Liz and I did celebrate and finish our Project Life books for 2010.  That's right! A picture with a journaling card for every day of last year! We tried to take a picture to document it with the self timer and what we got had us cracking up.  Cut off heads and I grabbed my book upside-down.  it’s just funny because you sit there, smile and wait and you think you look all cute…then we got this! Thanks for helping me to complete PL 2010 Liz.  Now onto the digital version for 2011. 

This is our house turned upside down everyday.  We barricade Gavin from Easton but I found him closing in yesterday. 

Gavin now says “baby” for his baby brother and it is so adorably cute to hear!

Bradley was at a sleepover with Sophia on Saturday night so I trapped Gavin in Bradley’s room to get into all the toys without Bradley telling him “No.” He loved his new found freedom (sort of)!

Bradley at Sophia’s house for the sleepover!

Back to Gavin at home!

 

Gavin was very excited and ran to the door when Bradley was coming home.  No freedom is worth his time away from his big brother!

On Sunday evening it snowed and we didn’t get out there until today but we were doing a lot of playing.  With our tickle monster hands and telling time games and Elefun and playing in the Toy story tent and tunnel.  These boys have had no shortage of laughter and attention that's for sure!

When we went outside today it was no longer soft fluffy snow but it had iced over.  Bradley and Daddy flew a remote control helicopter.  Bradley had so much fun flying it.  They landed successfully at times and sometimes it took a dive. 

They flew it right into a tree!

Waiting patiently for Daddy to rescue the downed plane. 

They got it and flew it a few more times but then it was onto sledding.  I love how he can watch and learn from his Dad on how to problem solve and Brad always includes him in the process even if it is just listening to his 3 year old ideas! Bradley said that maybe he needed a ladder and told Brad he had one in the garage! So cute!

 

Yep, he is excited about ice sledding!

Go Bradley Bear!

Daddy’s turn!

 

They went really fast with Brad pushing with his hands and steered through the bushes.  Bradley thought it was very exciting. 

Now it was my turn for fun since I did have Gavin and Easton sleeping inside. 

Who knew ice could be so much fun! All you need is the family you love, a blow up military issued mattress and a trash bag!
