Jan ~ The First Half

First half of January was pretty good. We didn't have a whole lot planned and we kept it that way! Between holidays, snow days, and half days though it's been difficult to get into the swing of things again.

 New Year and these kids are gonna do a lot

more in the kitchen by themselves :)

Up first, banana bread with mom only helping

with the oven.

 George "helping" Daddy

 Why not start the year off with a blizzard?

 George did not like the blizzard food choice of chilli

but he was bribed with some brownies, he ate his and Caroline gobbled

hers once brownies were on the table :)

 George's fork tine puffer fish, the best in the class, 

no really :)

 Jenga time!

We've had either this disgusting nonsense or snow so far

Cookie time!

 Caroline was at Brownie's so George

had to help make meatloaf

(which turns out is his new favorite meal!?!)

Ya know, enjoying the paper and a bagel before

we start our Saturday 

 Pool time!

 Then off to the library to see Caroline's class

book that was featured :)

We have a beautiful gallery by Miss Caroline that was featured 

over the MLK Jr. holiday
