Life on the Funny Farm Resumes

We're off to a normal, healthy, happy week...thank goodness! Everyone is better and back to their normal schedules/routines. We enjoyed time out in the snow this weekend along with some painting and reading.

It's officially "go time" to study for comps in Justin's world, so we didn't see much of him this weekend and I have a feeling it will be like this for awhile. But it's all for a good cause and helps get us closer to being done with school.

Morgan is getting a whole mouth full of teeth right now, so he goes between gnawing on everything and being fussy (or a "fuss bucket" as Jacoby and I call him). He's not as in to practicing walking this week as he was last, but that probably means he's going to take off running here one of these days. He's such a sweet little guy. Whenever he gets into trouble and we have to redirect him, he hangs his head and cries now! He's also starting to figure out the spoon and how to put it in his mouth.

Jacoby has a new stack of truck and firetruck books from the library that he's been reading non-stop for the past couple of days. We're talking more about his upcoming birthday and his party (Mommy is now going to be 3 (: ). His teachers sent home a project with each of the kids and one part of it has us talking about what makes him special. Jacoby told Justin that he was special because he likes crackers and Morgan. (: He's giving Play-Doh Valentines to his friends at school this week. Who knew you could get Play-Doh in tiny red, white, and pink containers just for Valentine's Day! I like it because it bypasses all of the candy, sugar stuff.

Two weekends ago I attended a workshop on keeping kiddos safe from abuse (which was very good) and this last weekend I attended a food allergy "support" group in Boulder that, oddly, was not very supportive. It was more geared towards families with kids who have severe food allergies, and I just don't think we fall in that category. So, I'm moving on from that and am contemplating whether or not to try and organize something for the families at the school who deal with allergies...in all of my spare time...hmmmm. I am loving the bible study I'm in right now though. The women are just lovely and I look forward to spending time with them every other week...and I guess the study is good too. (:

That's about all from our funny farm this week. Here are a couple of pictures & videos...We might need a bigger sled...
