Snowball fight

Last weekend we had another big snowstorm.  Simon kept asking to go do things outside ("let's play baseball! let's ride bicycles!") that we had to say no to because the weather was bad, and he was starting to really get frustrated with the winter.  So we got all bundled up to see if we could have some fun outside even though there was a ton of snow.  We ended up having a great time playing around in the snow for over two hours: having a snowball fight, building part of a snowman, and even doing a little sledding.

Funday Punday!

Hello all! Simon and Stacey here! 

Much to Stacey's surprise, Simon loves puns. Especially snow puns!

So while we were out sledding, we were laughing so hard because we came up with so many! These were our favorite two:

"Snow wonder we're friends!"

"Gotta put on our Snow-veralls!"

You might not know....but doctors wear glasses according to Dr. Simon.

Super Bowl Sunday

Since Simon loves football so much, we figured he had to see the last game of the year. Unfortunately it started at 5:30, which is right at the end of dinner and about time for him to go upstairs for bed. We decided to watch the pregame show and have a special picnic dinner of nachos watching TV. 

We laid out a blanket and set up a special place mat (food stays on the mat!) and Simon LOVED it. Football, eating on the rug, watching TV during dinner, eating nachos for dinner - so many things to love. I think we have a new Super Bowl tradition. 

Lillian Laughs!

Lillian laughed last week for both Jenn and Stacey and as a result both Alan and I tried like crazy to make her laugh for us all weekend. We did finally hear it (a super cute, happy noise that sounds a bit like a coo with a catch in the middle) but she did it on her own terms - so despite many minutes of video there is no recording of her laughing. However the below videos have some great expressions - smiles, muppet sad face, amazement at both mama and daddy's funny faces. Luckily because I'm the video taker you can't see any of my funny faces.

In the morning Lillian was dressed for Super Bowl Sunday. She threw up on these mid-day though and moved on to outfit number three for the day for the next video. Muppet sad face shows up in this one a few times.

She had *just* laughed for us so I pulled out my phone thinking I could catch it for you. As a result, this was taken during Super Bowl half time and you can see the colors reflected on the back of her head.
