more everyday fun!

So, I've been bad at blogging lately, but we are still here and doing lots of great things!
Here is an update through pictures...

1) Shae has discovered my foot bath...and LOVES it! Already pampering herself at 3...what are we in for?! 2) Teegan is super curious...we had a fun time playing peek-a-boo in this cupboard! 3) Shae is getting very good at coloring!
We had a very cold, snowy Sunday and Monday, but Jadan and Cooper still had fun playing outside, all bundled up! Always a great excuse for hot cocoa, too!! Shae's tea set is the perfect size for little hands and tiny sips!
Jadan participated in his school's science fair! After pondering a list of topics, he decided "What can a helium balloon lift?" would be fun. And it was! We borrowed a few books from the library and he learned the basic science of helium; he thought of different objects to "test" what a helium balloon could lift and Danny helped him complete this little experiment. Overall it was a great experience and I know Jadan had fun...he just loves learning!
We love when we get to go and watch Danny's cousin, Logan's basketball games; for this one, we painted the kids' faces...what good cheerleaders!!
Every Friday, Jadan's class has a "Mystery Reader" come in and read their favorite book to the class. I signed up for a Friday in January and was thrilled when DeAnne said she could do it; I knew Jadan would LOVE that surprise...and HE DID! When DeAnne walked in, the class turned around and Jadan gasped a huge wide smile and gave Aunt Doodoo a big hug! The class loved DeAnne's story, Edgar the Dolphin, and had a fun time learning a little more about one of Jadan's favorite people! Thanks again, Aunt Doodoo!!
