February spring

 We've had some odd Michigan weather recently. Yesterday I took advantage of the thaw and took the kids around the block. Michael was not a fan of the stroller so I left him in the house with Josh and did an additional lap with just the bicycle sized children.

My babies

4 months is a good age. I'm feeling better, the babies are starting to sleep better. And in Michael's case, he laughs, nurses better and gives slobber kisses.

Praire Dogs

 Uncle Aaron helped the cousins dig some wonderful snowdrift tunnels! I thought they looked kinda like prairie dogs popping out.

The social smile

Michael is starting to smile at more people now!

 

Lights

We put up some Christmas lights on our front tree. It is kind of fun to see the huge maple tree my Grandma planted behind her house and hope my little tree will be like that someday too.
 

Snow!

Snow accumulated the last few days and we have made the most of every opportunity! Please don't tell Kathryn that girls normally cry and run away when boys throw snow balls at their faces. She laughed and opened her mouth to catch them. Cyrus was a great sport too and allowed Kathryn to dump handfuls of snow on his head. This might be a really interesting winter!

 

1 month

 Michael made it past the 1 month mark. I put together a collage of each of our babies at this milestone.
