Phone Pictures

 These were from a couple of weeks ago, playing at OSP.

 On Feb. 1st, this arrived at our doorstep. New bunk beds!! It's a full on the bottom and twin on the top. The kids love all sleeping together. Now Kelsey has her own room and it works out well that way since she's not exactly on the same sleeping schedule as the others.

She loves to sit in big girl chairs, and CLIMB! Oh my she climbs everything she can. But her most favorite spot in the house is up on the fireplace. It's always barricaded now because I don't like her playing in the ashes, but she occasionally still manages to get up there.

 

Madison is doing awesome and except for nights and naps, she's potty trained! She decided it was okay to poop on the real big potty, not the little trainer one. Then the next day she came down with a bad bug and was throwing up a lot and had diarrhea. So that set us back a little bit but once she got better she did fine again! We now finally have more children in underwear, than in diapers!! Cool!

Brynlee found these white spandex shorts in her drawer and got so excited. "Look Mom! I have white shorts just like the ones you wear!! (Like my garments) Then she insisted on wearing them over her tights, to church. But it was too hot so we ended up pulling them off during sacrament meeting. :) Made me laugh.

 Sledding/playing outside. We've received A LOT of snow this month of February. Seems to be makign up for the lack of snow in Jan.

 

 This last week I built a "secret snow fort" in the backyard with Ty and Bryn. They helped too! They each have a little shovel and it kept them busy for a long time.

This weekend Fur Rondy started!! So yesterday morning Tyler and I went downtown and ran in the Frostbite Footrace! It was a 2.5k fun run, and his first race. He did so awesome and kept pushing himself even when he didn't want to do it anymore. I was so proud of him and his determination. It was a very cold, but fun morning with my big boy. I only wish his eyes weren't closed in this picture :).

This past Friday we went to UAA Planetarium as a family to see one of their Friday night showings. They do these awesome movies in the big dome ceiling and a short lecture afterwards. We were going to see if we were interested in getting a membership because it's a really cool thing, and not too expensive for our whole family for a year. But after one night, we realized we are about 10 years too early. There's no way we're going back with anyone but Tyler. But it was worth a try, right? :)
