day 158

max drawing a beatiful picture for his teacher. i love to watch him draw. he still sticks his tongue out and move his mouth all around when he is concentrating on something like this.

day 157

freezing cold whitecaps game. we weren't prepared for the cold wind but we still had a good time. cotton candy, hot dogs, fries-all the stuff to complete a game. the boys and me called it a little early into the van but even though naomi was one of the biggest complainers she wouldn't leave the game til it was finished.

day 156

my honey watching all the radars on the tv and computer for the storms and calling our parents at 11:30 at night for tornado warnings. he keeps us safe.

day 155

max wrapped this snowman and note in a plastic bag and gave it to kevin and i. it made me cry-only because it reminds me of the love that i have for our children and the love they have back for me even though at times i feel not nicer than anyone or anything. i am so glad that he can see beyond my imperfections as a parent and give me words like this. i know we are teaching our children that love in this house is unconditional. this was a feel good moment and these words will always remind me of that.

day 154

this cool dude lost two teeth this week!!! we were reading a book together and couldn't stop laughing at the way max talked. some of the words came out so incredibly silly.

day 153

levi is 8 months old today. when i took these photos i was sure i was taking his 7 month photos. i had to call auntie j to tell me how old cora is to remind me how old levi really is. most days i am losing my mind:) sorry bubby-even though i can't remember how old you are i love you beyond measure...
