January 2011

January has been a challenge for everyone because of the cold weather and all the snow. Can't go outside in three feet of it when you're only a few feet tall. Maybe when it gets warmer we'll try. Meanwhile, we've been working on a few things. Peyton insists he needs glasses and has been lackadaisical in his computer work however, he did sign himself up as an "official member of Team Umizoo"!!!!and printed the official document that says so. He's learning how to spell his name and is very good with his letters. Ally's hittin' the books and letters also....but....

December

The holidays are finally over, the new year is here and I've had loads of fun with the kids. Ally's exploring my house and one of her favorite spots is playing with the shoes by the door. I see many shoes in her future. She's also learning her way around the kitchen and.... discovering popsicles help a bad hair day. Peyton is really into electronics. He especially likes the application on my iphone called 'Talking Tom' aka psycho kitty. Ally's even trying to play the Nintendo DS, she already knows how to open it. Before Christmas we put on our aprons and made cookies. Peyton was happy I finally put a button on the sweater he's been watching me make for him. He says its "berrie soft". The kids and Bigfoot want to wish Mommy and Daddy a Happy New Year. Until next year, The Gram Cam

Novembers gone

                                 It was warm enough to take one last lap around the sandbox                                                      and play in the leaves. Peyton is quite determined to learn Nintendo DS.....                                           Ally's determined to sit herself in this chair                                                          Just one leg left to go!!!! 
                       Peyton likes to put on my dishtowel like a cape and save the princess. Even Super Hero's need a nap. The Gram Cam

Good bye Summer

Going, going, gone is our summer. The chilly mornings are prevent us from going outside as much. The park is still our favorite place. We've had some visitors. I just love the way Ally likes dolls, reading and how cute it is the way she sits on her lower legs. Bye Summer, see ya next year when we're taller. The Gram Cam

See You in September

This month we started driving but we need a lot of practice. Ally did a little gardening and...... Peyton made YoJay. Yum Yum. Hide and seek is always a good time.... Ally found the perfect spot. Peyton is working on his photography and took this photo of me and Ally, Good Job Peyton!!! And after much pondering, we made a project off the computer. "Swiper no Swiping" Later The Gram Cam
