12.31.09 new year's eve

To Tom and carols for Christmas brunch with Sunday dinner crew. The boys got an awesome pirate ship and some nerf dart guns that were both huge hits. Maggie & Felix stayed there all day playing dominos and with Tom(who read books to fee for 1hr while F tried to poop) - Asher, hazel, & I came home. Maddie came over for a playdate with Asher. We never got a sitter so we watched a movie instead of going out.

12.30.09 Wednesday

Made a robot. Went outside with squirt bottles filled with food coloring.








I took boys ice skating at billy's pond after dinner- anita,maddie,zach,kylie etc. Asher really improved in the course of an hour. Felix held my hand and gave it his all the whole time. It was snowing crazy and was very pretty. Maggie stayed home with hazel.









Hazel can now dismount the couch and even the tall guest bed safely.
No walking but occasionally pushes the walking cart a step or two.

12.29.09 Tuesday

Connected tunnels and tents in the basement- Maggie post-call. Isabel kept hazel while the rest of us went bowling for the boys first time. They really liked it///especially the shoes-which looked awesome! Felix rolled a ball that stopped dead b4 it hit any pins. We told the boys they could have a piece of candy if they didn't call each other poop, baby, or throw-up (or any combination of the words) for one hour. They came close but never quite made it.

Home for lunch. M had afternoon off- family shovel/snow partying with George and isabel. M back to work for overnight at 5.
