Random January

Once upon a January, we had a monkey who liked to escape his crib. 
He would fall and land on the floor with a big thump...

Before he ended up breaking his arm or banging his 
head on his bookshelf, he got upgraded to a toddler bed!

Oh the freedom of being able to easily escape your bed... 
made for some long days with skipped naps!

Coloring is so fun! Poking holes in the paper- even better!

Russell locked Zoey in her kennel because he wanted 
to leave the house and go swimming... in the cold weather...

My cute family... and Russell's football

Russell collecting sticks at the park to give to a german 
shepherd puppy he made friends with that day

Lots of time was spent reading books in his R2 chair!

You can make beautiful music with cars on a piano

Playing with Daddy's star wars legos

Making his own pool in his water table... definitely not
winter weather the whole month!

Playing a duet and singing/screaming with Dad

Enjoying the sunshine whenever possible!

Texas Snow Day

Once every two years it seems, Texas gets some snow. This year was one pitiful sprinkling. Sadly not even enough for Russell to build a snowman, but we had to go out and enjoy! Russell and Zoey did not know what to think of the snow at first. Then Zoey discovered it was like a ground full of delicious ice and she was happy!


Russell was cold and unimpressed when
 the first flakes started coming down

Once there was more on the ground, and I found his 
gloves, he was ready to check it out again.


Snow wont stop him from mowing the lawn!



Daddy got to come home early and play too!
