They have had SO MUCH fun playing in the snow this past week! It was been a great way to tire them out. The problem is, getting them tired out just tires us out, too! Getting them dressed to go outside is quite an ordeal. You know me, I've got it all nicely organized and laid out, but getting little boys to stand still to get all the winter gear on is exhausting! Mike, of course, has had lots of fun playing outside with them, and I got to go out with them one day, too, and we had a blast. I pulled them all over in their sled, they made snow angels, and we played hide and seek. Sadie always has fun when we're outside, too.
Friday afternoon we had a sledding party with some friends from church. It gets a little crazy with all the kids, but it was a good time!

Boys will be boys. Kids are in the sled, the two other dads are standing on a toboggan that's also hooked to the tractor - they took quite a long ride like this!

Levi can pull himself up! I wasn't really expecting that. He can get himself up on his knees good when he's playing at the bottom of the stairs, but yesterday he was playing by the indoor trampoline in the playroom and got up on his feet! Then he was doing it again later at the bottom of the stairs. He's also gotten good at raising up his hands when you do it. He loves scooting all around and checking things out. Somehow he doesn't scoot around to play with his toys - he goes for the nearest electrical cord, or into the kitchen to open up drawers and cupboards, or into the bathroom to bang the door on the shower door... :)
