Snacktime.

Sitting in Jacob's house.

Playing in Copper Harbor sand.

We were all up around 8am. The boys wanted me to put diapers on their bears. As the we waited for the dogs to come back inside the boys had fun drawing in the frost on the door window. They laughed as they made noseprints. Jacob fed the dogs their food and I put some water in the container for Adam to give to them. As I was filling the water Adam ran to the fridge, grabbed the handle, and said, “Milk!” He wanted me to put milk in the container. We read some books and then ate breakfast. Jacob requested cheerios with the milk separate. Adam also tried to say separate. As I poured their drinks Adam folded his hands and said, “pray”. I blessed the food and as I prayed Adam added, “Daddy” and Jacob said, “Please give us snowflakes for playing in”. We watched Clifford. Then I got out the art box. I cut out paper snowflakes to decorate. The boys liked choosing what shape to cut and watching as I opened them up. Adam always chose “circle”. The boys had fun coloring with markers. Adam helped me decorate a snowflake with glue and glitter, but he preferred coloring. Jacob didn't want to use the glitter saying he didn't want to get it in his eye like last time. He did some gluing and choosing colors. We things cleaned up and had lunch. After lunch we enjoyed listening to the Donutman cd while playing. Jacob piled lots of toys to make a house. He and Adam couldn’t seem to get along with the ride on tractor and the dump truck so I put it away for a little bit. After a while Jacob came over to me and said, "I want another try". I was telling Jacob how proud I was for how he was sharing and said something like, "I bet God's smiling at you right now". Jacob though for a minute, looked up towards heaven and yelled, “God, are you smiling!” Around 2pm the boys had a snack. Then I read some books with Adam and tucked him in his crib. Today he fell asleep right away and didn't even ask for Louie. Jacob and I read some books. Then he asked to play with his Copper Harbor sand. We played together and then he continued playing while he rested. Adam woke up around 5pm, just before Daddy came home from work. Right away he took my hand and lead me to our closet where the games are kept. He pointed at the fishing game. The boys and I had fun playing that. I went outside to take care of the animals while Daddy got some playtime in with the boys. The boys were having fun playing with the tracor and cart. Adam sat in the cart as Jacob rode the tractor. After dinner we relaxed and had fun playing with the boys. This evening they enjoyed ice cream with chocolate syrup. The boys and Daddy had fun playing with paper airplanes. As I rocked Adam he pointed towards the snowflake with his name on it (We each have a snowflake with our name written in glitter) and said, "Dat mine". The boys were tucked in bed around 9pm. Jared and I had ice cream and watched a couple episodes of I Love Lucy.
