spring snow

looking up to dad, while vacuuming

little wheelbarrow i got for him at walmart yesterday.

he was posing in the door frame! so cute

cooking up some yum yums

i don't have a picture of the snow but it snowed again this morning. it's good we need the moisture!

palmer was looking extra cute today. i have to finish studying for a test i have tomorrow and write 2 essays for it and do some reading. i'm trying to decide if i should take this advanced statistics class in the fall. i wanted to take it this semester but they weren't offering it. it's tues/thurs 1-2:15, so i would have to figure out some child care for palmer. i know erica can do thrusdays but we'll see. i asked the dr. who is going to write me a letter of recomendation and that is helping me present at the psychology conference if it would be worth while to take it. i registered but i can drop it if it won't work out.

we'll miss you guys@

though ian really never got used to us it was still really nice to have mara and ian here. will miss them for sure!

blizzard

this morning. . . it snowed all day
waking up from nap

our neighbor brought us some balloons from her bachlorette party. it's given the boys some entertainment.

this looks like a kiss, but palmer leans in with almost a head butt. no one cried after this shot was taken though.

sorry grandma, we tried to get a good one today. no one was having it.
this was right when we would have gone to sears but maybe everything really does happen for a reason. . . .

palmer was sitting on the pulled out futon reading himself his car book. he is so obsessed with cars!

palmer playing with matchbox cars. that was a very good investment.
palmer brushing mara's hair
ian being cool
kiko said ian looked like a guy who had just gotten home from a job interview that didn't go too well. . . poor little guy, he had a rough day.
palmer riding the carpet cleaner. . .

cutie patooties

palmer digging in the dirt! he needs a sandbox! he loves it.

mara and i went to target yesterday and whew, it's hard with 2 kiddos! i think ian is kind of getting used to us and being here. he still is a little afraid of me and kiko but hopefully he'll get over it soon!

they have arrived

mara and ian made it safe and sound and the cousins have been having a pretty good time. i've been trying to get ian to recognize me. I think that ian looks a lot like my dad, his grandpa. and mara of course. he's still getting to know me and kiko he's got stranger anxiety but we're gonna wear him down soon!

this is my dad here, on the left and my uncle brian on the right.
