Happy Birthday to Jane!

IT'S THE BIRTHDAY GIRL!

Jane received some fun new things. Ethan and Claire liked playing with the new toys just as much as Jane!

Jane even got to go on the dogsled for her big day!

This is Jane's first experience with chocolate...it seemed like she wasn't sure what to think of it, but she kept wanting more!

After a long hard day of play, play, play, Jane takes a quick break!

The First Snow

It's been about a week and a half since our first big snow...enough to go tobogganing! Ethan and Claire got to try out their saucers for the first time and it was great fun. There is a little hill just the right size for us about a block from our apartment. Jane wasn't quite sure what to think about the snow. She is frustrated by her snowsuit because she can barely move!

Jane Scoots

This is the way Jane gets around these days...she's pretty fast too.

Claire's Dance Recital

Tonight was Claire's last dance class, ending with a recital. She kept dancing past, reminding me that I should be taking her photograph! She has really enjoyed this class and was sad to learn that this was the time we would be going. She is ready to sign up again.

Jane's New Hair Style!

It's A Party!

We had friends and family over on Saturday for cupcakes and ice cream to celebrate Ethan and Claire's recent birthday and Jane's upcoming birthday. Everyone had a great time.

Jane unwraps her first present! And has a good time playing.

Cupcakes!


Claire wanted to dress all the girls up so they could dance with the boys. So each girl in turn was taken back to Claire's room to get beautified! Here is the end result for Carlee and Grandma Rae!


Time to Play...
