Frozen Lake

We decided to head to the lake for a change of scenery. Will kept asking if we were going swiming and riding in the boat. Hmmm, no it's a little too cold for that! He was very excited when I told him that the lake would be ice and we could walk on it and that we would build a snowman instead. We saw some snowmobilers("Mama too loud!!") and some ice fisherman.

Squeaky clean

Why is splashing in the bath SO much fun!!?

This explains a lot!

I wonder how long he's been sneaking out of the house to go get coffee! At least now we know why he doesn't sleep;)

Train engineer

Will has discovered the fun of setting up the chairs to make a train. I remember doing this when I was little too! It was so much fun! Nate and I rode on the caboose and as Will chugged and tooted along.

Elsie Kate

We are so excited to have a new baby cousin in the family! Elsie was born on 1/9 and was just a little peanut at 6pounds 1oz. She's is adorable, snuggly and perfect! Her sisters nicknamed her Teapot, while her parents were deciding on a name. So the other day Will told me "Lila has a new baby Teapot!" Congrats to the Stanley's on their newest addition!

Dancing Bobble Head

This can only make you laugh! It looks like he's in "rewind mode".. but that's just his secret move!! You can hear him at the begining say "go backwards." So the real question is did he get his moves from mom or dad? Ahhh...classic Will!

Sledding!

It was a great day full of sledding and hot cocoa with the cousins! And the best part was baby Elsie was born later this evening!!!

Holiday Marathon

Stealing "big kid" sippy cups

SO Happy!!

Wow... this Christmas stuff is crazy

We were so lucky to celebrate Christmas with all of our families and after a whirlwind of fun, it's back to reality! Here's a glimpse of what some of our many Christmas's looked like!

Firetrucks, firetrucks, and more firetrucks!

There are few things Will enjoys more than being a fireman. Papa G took him to the firestation where they checked out the brand new firetruck. How exciting to get to sit in the truck, meet the captian, and try on the helmuts. He loves his new fireman gear which, ironically, goes great with his fireman jammies!! Thanks to all who contributed to his love for firetrucks!!! He is one happy boy!
