Birthdays!

This is the cake that Simon and Mama made for Will's birthday. Daddy didn't want more sweets so we made the cake out of paper and glue and other fun stuff.

















This is Simon wearing the cake as a hat.
For some reason we didn't take any pictures of Daddy.

























For Mama's birthday we went ice skating! Here Simon clings on to Mama for dear life. It took some time, but Simon did get better and he was even starting to skate a little on his own by the end. He was very excited the whole time and never got scared or whiny. So we all had lots of fun.
























And then we went to Two Boots for Birthday lunch. Yum. (Thanks to Brooke who was photographer, Simon skating assitant, driver, and general all around good company!)

Playing with Gifts

Simon has really been enjoying all the wonderful holiday gifts- here he is watching his homemade volcano erput. Thanks Jesse and Sarah El!























And here Simon streches for letter in his cool alphabet stretchy game. Thanks Aunt Lisi and Uncle Robert!
















And loving drawing with window and mirror markers. Thanks Grandma Sue and Grandpa Steve!
