Happy Saint Patty's Day

I couldn't remember when I let Zoe start using a snack trap, but lately, Grant hates getting in his car seat.  I thought well, I guess I could reward him with a snack.  So the era of the snack trap began.  He loves it!!  He is very proud of himself when he gets something out.  He is also proud of himself when he feeds the dogs from it.  He is so super cute!

Oh and Happy Saint Patty's day.  Just a little late.

New PJ's

Most people won't understand this, but my family LOVES to go to Cost-Co.  We typically go as a family every Saturday, but when little man got on a schedule, He and I stayed behind.  This last Saturday I decided I was done with that.  I really wanted to go!!!  Grant took his nap, ate his lunch, and we headed.  Oh, it was wonderful and the Carter's clothes were perfect. I went a little nuts.  This was Zoe's pick.

Laundry

Grant has a thing for the laundry.  That is, he loves to pull it off the table.  He thinks it's hilarious!!!!  

I forget that it's an issue until it's all over the floor.

God this little boy has stolen my heart!

More Snow

So the snow this year has been amazing.  It's been such a part of our life, that I had to learn how to use the snow blower over the phone.  It wasn't difficult but luckily my nice neighbor who has an even bigger machine came over and finished for me!!!  (That reminds me I need to do something for them.)

 Grant really wanted to go out with Todd and Zoe so I pulled out his snow suit and he lasted like 5 minutes.  He wanted to get down, but the snow was so deep, he would of flew through.

Zoe loved the snow.  She and I went sledding in the front yard, and then she had a snow ball fight with her daddy.  Snow does have it's advantages!!!

February

So I'm a little late on this post, and I don't really have an excuse, but man does time fly.  The month of February just went by before I could even blink.  Let's see....In February, truthfully I don't even know what happened.  We did get a ton of snow which explains these pictures.

 Zoe was stuck inside for many days because of the ridiculous amount of snow, so I pulled out my preschool teacher brain and came up with some things to do.

She really loved the shaving cream.  She played with it for an hour or so.  The next day we did a rice table and it entertained her again for an hour or so.

 This is Zoe on Valentines day.  They don't celebrate Valentines at her preschool due to the fact that it's Saint Valentine, but I still put her in her V-day shirt.
Soon after, we took both of the kids to get their hair cut.  At the age of 10 months, Grant has had 4 hair cuts.  He really is due for another, but I don't think it's going to happen anytime soon.  These next pictures are of Grants new due and his new habit that he loves doing.

 This isn't the best picture of Zoe's hair, but we did the same little bob for her.

 Grant decided that it might be fun to try snow.  He took a clump and put it in his mouth.

I don't think he enjoyed it.

These were just a couple of pics that I thought were super cute of him.

As for baby book info: 
At 9 months he started crawling on all four, and pulling himself up

At 10 months, he started holding onto objects and walking along side them.  He can sign all done.  It's not perfect, but I get it and that's all that matters.

Boy or Girl

On Friday's, I get up at 430 so I can be at work at 6am.  Todd gets the kids ready for the day and is in charge for the day.  When I went up to put the little man to bed, I found that none of his pj's were clean.  So what is a mom to do????  I went into Zoe's bins of clothes and found some really cute pj's. In the morning, I thought it might be funny or just fun to see what he would look like as a girl!!!

I definitely think he makes a cutter boy!!!

This picture is just funny!!  I was on the phone with my mom and kept hearing this little giggle.  I knew the folded laundry was sitting there, but I had no idea what he was doing. 

He was sitting with the basket's slowly taking out the clothes.  He thought it was so funny.

Dark Cave

Zoe has become obsessed with building a, "Dark Cave" out of our couch pillows.  I love this adventure of hers!  She started out simple by just using the pillows and then with a little help from mom and dad....

 She has built a real cave that stands up to a lot of rough play. 

In both caves she has her musts to make it complete, they are:  her lady bug light, Mimi's blanket to curl up with, and her lunch box with multiple tea party items.  She can really entertain herself for a bit, and has done a fabulous job including Grant in the activity.
