Lots of great pix from today with so many new things going on!
Since February is the month of Love, the kids colored in some accordion-fold lettered Love cards to keep or give away.
Thanks to Grandma Chase, Declan and Livi have Diego’s “Rescue Pack” and Dora’s “Backpack” to play with. They went crazy with these packs! As usual, they acted out Diego and his sister Alicia playing animal rescuers, using the transportation form of jumping on chairs. “There’s an animal in trouble! We must resuce him/her!” Every time I accidentally call Declan by his real name, which is pretty much all the time, Livi corrects me and says “That’s *Diego!*” Declan loves that.
We also recently acquired some board games. Now that Declan is 3, there are so many cool things we can play together. Livi kicked our butts at Candyland, THEN she won at Chutes and Ladders, but I won the second round, then we played a bit of Boggle Junior, which after a few minutes the kids said was “boring.”
We went sledding outside afterwards, with Livi and D eating snow all the way after the huge storm we had the day before. We also saw lots of animal footprints outside in the woods – rabbit, squirrel, bird, and deer!
Coloring fun
Animal rescuers!

They really enjoyed Boggle Jr. before they said it was “boring.”
They were
- so
heavy to pull in the sled, but they loved it!
