Winter continued....

It seems like the last few weeks we have been out a little more - especially since it's back up in the 20s and 30s.

By this age Belen had been swimming a ton, so we decided to get Oscar back in the water. Turns out, he doesn't turn blue nearly as fast as B did. That chub is good for something.

Belen went down the slide all by herself.

Auntie Nae comes over when I work on Tuesdays until Garrett comes home.

Oscar the teething monster. He is constantly covered in drool. All that chewing finally popped through one on the top and the other is not far behind. It has been a bit rough at night lately. He did have an ear infection, which cleared up on it's own- so I think it is probably the teeth or he thinks we are suckers.

Last weekend Oscar and I went to Iowa and Garrett and Belen stayed home so Belen could go to her friend Ava's birthday party.

And of course it was a princess party. That costume she got for her birthday came in handy.

Garrett also took Belen ice skating for her first time. She mostly shuffled along the wall. They also went sledding (which she did by herself too).

And after all that she said the swings were her favorite.

Meanwhile, Oscar went out shopping with the girls. Here is Cali and him in a firetruck stroller.

We went out to eat with Grandma and Grandpa. These pictures were just before the melt down that had us eating at a contest pace. Oh well.

Bath at Grandmas. We actually feed him his squash while he sat there- it made clean up pretty easy. :)
