More January Fun!

Here is Isaac "running" on the treadmill. He is too funny.

Here Isaac is putting on a dog hat. He says "hat" a bunch of times and then gets down on the floor and barks like a dog. He loves to pretend he is a dog.

Isaac went to Play Street Museum last week. He still managed to sweep half the time he was there.

Double brooms!

They go everywhere with him.

Petting the toy dogs

He loves this sand table too.

riding in the boat

And, of course, doing laundry.

Here is a little video of Tahl punching at his second martial arts class.

Zev came in third in his age group for the Pine Derby last weekend!

Here he is with his den.

Here he is with his bronze medal and his car. He was very proud to show them off to me.

I went to Tyler by myself, and Uncle Mike sent back a present for Zev. It was a dinosaur skeleton that you dig out of a rock and assemble yourself.

Zev did it in just over 24 hours, and he was very happy with himself.

Tahl wanted to be in a picture too.

Isaac started pulling on my leg and saying "cheese."

We also got to do some fun science experiments with ice from our kiwi crate over the MLK holiday.

Isaac was very happy to start back at Mommy and Me class this week.

Tahl learned to "ice skate" on wax paper this week at school, so he has been having fun with that all over the house.

Wild Kratts Live!

The boys and I went to see Wild Kratts Live this week.

They were very excited, and they had been counting down the days.

Tahl was a little disappointed that "they were in costumes and not really transforming," but he loved it anyway.

It started a little late, so we had time to kill with a few selfies...

At the end of the show, Zev was sure that the Kratt brothers had really minaturized until Tahl told them they were just dolls. It was pretty funny.

Chris and Martin in real life!

Caracal powers!

Rhino powers!

The guys had good behavior and were lots of fun!

Old Pictures!

My grandma and grandpa moved into assisted living this past week, so I went to Tyler to visit them before they moved out. Grandma and I had fun going through lots of old pictures.
