the circus

The last month it has been cold, wet, snowy and slightly miserable. We have all had a mild case of cabin fever so even though it was snowy we decided to head out to the circus. Lucky for us the YMCA had free tickets for kids so it ended up being pretty cheap since we only had to pay for the adults. Overall we had a great time and everyone enjoyed it. Caleb and Ethan were both pretty scared at the beginning because it was really loud in the arena. A few minutes into the circus acts they had an aerialist come out dressed as Spiderman and both boys were completely won over. After that everything was great and everyone was happy.   

 

lately

Life has been pretty slow lately. We have spent the last few weeks hanging out around the house, playing, going to the gym, driving out to our new house and helping my Dad with a few renovation projects on his house. 

It's not always like this but on occasion these kids play well together. I love to listen to their conversations from a distance. Molly also thinks she is one of the boys and refuses to be left behind.
