Catching Up

This winter has been wonderful in the fact that it hasn't felt like winter.  It has been great to be able to play outside, take walks and get some fresh air.  The kids have enjoyed it so much!  One day they took advantage of the weather and jumped on the trampoline.  Cameron took it to the extreme by taking off his shirt, but I figured if he could stand it, then I would let it be! 

Cameron also lost another tooth, this makes 3 for him.  It had been loose for so long!  One night we put the kids to bed and I was in the living room reading.  Cameron came walking into the living room and I was just about to scold him for getting up (something he really doesn't ever do) but I looked over and saw him holding out his tooth.  He was very excited and showed everyone at church the next day.  I didn't get a very good picture of him, I kept telling him to smile with his mouth open, but he wasn't understanding what I meant.  Oh well!  I have to say, there is something so cute about kids with missing teeth!

Lauren has a new pastime of playing with my shoes.  She especially loves my boots, which is hilarious because they are extremely tall and large on her feet; they basically cover her whole legs.  When she's wearing them, she has to walk along furniture or the wall in order to keep her balance.

Aubrey has been asking for these fake, sticker nails that she saw at Target.  I thought it was a bit extreme, but then decided that it would make a good Valentine's day present.  They were only a few dollars and it didn't matter if they lasted long or not.  The good news about them is that they go on and come off very easily.  The bad news is that they come off very easily.  We went swimming within 24 hours of her putting them on and they came right off.  She wasn't too disappointed though, so it was worth it. It was funny to watch her try to do things with these long nails on because it was very awkward.  I think she was just getting the hang of it when they came off.  There are two sets in the pack so we get to try again!
