Someone needs to tell this kid that snow angels are made on your back not on your front!

Owen is no longer happy. Time elapsed...one minute three seconds.
Eating the ice chunk that Aidan found while making his snow angel.

Owen begged to go outside but then HATED it!

His second attempt seemed better but only lasted less than two minutes. The big kids, on the other hand, spent most of the day enjoying the rare snowfall.

Happy Owen as he prepares for the dreaded trip outside!

More unwrapping of the ornaments

The only picture of Owen's new ornament before it became a headless snowman!

We had a dusting of snow Sunday morning. The kids wanted to play in it before it melted. The picture was taken before 8 am and the snow was gone by noon.

Watch out!

The "biggies" (how we refer to Aidan and Bella) thought it was a great idea to use my measuring tape to pull Owen around as if they were sled dogs. This is the calm before the storm! It got a little rough so the game is no longer allowed!

My thankful little Native American

Despite the crazy red eye, Owen is lovin' this new game of chomp the finger with Aidan!

O loves the digital camera and oh's and ah's at the picture on the back. He usually can't stay still long enough to get a picture taken before he wants to run over and see it on the screen. Yes, a major lack of impulse control! Either way, Owen's saying "cheese" and hamming it up for a picture!

Owen LOVES water play!

"Don't write on your brother" shouldn't even have to be a rule!
Our pet frog Leaper who leapt right into the house one rainy morning. It's been raining so much even the frogs are seeking refuge!

Aidan helped me make some homemade bread. Notice his initials! YUMMY!
