Maggie Helper

Maggie is such  a good helper with Arthur.  These pictures are from winter break.



She is also getting more responsible and decided to learn how to make pancakes instead of complaining there wasn't anything to eat.

A new source of trouble this month.




His friend Jake from church.


Loves ipad.



Wants mom or dad to lie with him until he falls asleep.

Sienna the Sass

Sienna got tossed by a wave, like, a year ago, and has since been afraid of the beach, and cries every time I tell her we're going. But she stays away from the water and always has a good time collecting, digging, climbing. 

This particular day was a mommy-Nenna beach date. Right after we arrived, I took this picture as she said, "I always have fun when I get to the beach! What is going on inside my head??"

Later that day, we collected buckets of pinecones to throw in the river, and I caught this shot of her.


And, relaxing in the driveway.

January Beach Days

We are still going strong with the sea glass hunting in our family.  About once a week, we make it down to Laguna during low tide.

Disney for Arhur

John and I decided that I should get myself a Disney pass and take Arthur while he is in the glorious toddler, character-loving, magical stage. Our first visit, Dale sat down and snuggled him for TEN MINUTES.  





We made four trips in January, about once a week he gets to go snuggle his friends. Arthur loves Chip and Dale, the train, teacups, and Pooh.
