2015 catch up

We have had a great start to the new year!

We did a little roller skating ... safety first with that helmet :) Toddler skate at the roller rink is one of my favorite activities. We take our scooters and they just go crazy there ... this time we tried out the skates though and they did awesome!

We visited the childrens' museum which was awesome as usual. The four of us crammed into the elevator lift to get to the top floor.

Since Andrew and Daniel were finally 5, they got to climb this awesome structure. They were little monkeys!

Helen got to see some friends  - Davis and Lilah. This was the first time I felt terrible that Helen did not have a twin. She LOVED watching the other babies and playing on the mat. Check her out holding Lilah's shoulder.

The big kids had a nice time too ...

Helen has some new sunnies ... This was at the store, I promise I took off the tags :)

Daniel found a very efficient way to eat his green beans:

Oh, we have some new members to the family! Snakey! The boys are obsessed and sleep with them every night. Boys!

We celebrated Mom's birthday with a tiny cupcake and all her grandkids:

We ate way too much candy at the Valentines Day parties at school. Andrew loving his pizza but more excited about the gummy hearts....

Daniel with his girlfriend Harper. Could they be sitting any closer to each other? I think he drank 5 glasses of lemonade. Everyone had a sugar let down (meltdown) around 4:30 that afternoon.

Ellie is loving life with her bone and 2 balls from Carly. She will play ball for hours on end now ... and cries dramatically when a ball is lost under the dresser, chair, sofa, refrigerator etc.

Did I mention Helen loves attention? We all wanted to keep sweet Georgia after this love fest:

Cutest monogrammed bum out there:

Oh Helen also loves Ellie. Ellie loves Helen too. If Helen is on a blanket, Ellie must be laying next to her. Helen likes to hold on to Ellie's fur now too but E doesn't seem to mind.

It was bounce house weekend. They had a blast ...

We are still working on the boys holding Helen. It seems to need more work ...

In other news, I'm officially retired and loving my new job as stay at home mom. Life is good!
