Another sporadic update from Daddy & Me Daycare...
a sign that the weather is nice, and that we've been busy playing!

But if it weren't for these updates,
I (Jon) don't think I'd notice how much the kids have grown!!

lunchtime with "the Crazy 7"

It's time for art!

Caleb and Cayden taking a walk with Mara

a (belated) birthday with snowmen pancakes!

It was great to have you girls visit again!

The snowy days of January

"Happy (birthday) yaya (Evan)!!"

Evan brought us b-day treats!!

...and Cayden and I celebrated Evan's 3-year birthday

with snowmen pancakes!!
(Evan had to save room for birthday lunch with Mom & Dad)

And here's what else we've been up to lately...

Cayden--decided to stop taking naps for awhile
(other than for 2 minutes at lunchtime)

We're VERY happy Cayden's back on schedule!!

Lots of snowdays in January!!

Painting...

...craft projects

Lots of books...

...and even a marching band!!

Of forts, and other things

we love building forts!!!!

Today we piled ALL
of the toys (a.k.a. "garbage") on the front porch,

and ourselves, on top of the slide!

Then we piled ALL of the "garbage" on a chair,

and we ALL sat on the chair,

of course!

Typical table talk
at Daddy & Me Daycare

the great swimming race...
with TWO first-place WINNERS!

It's twins...

no, wait...

It's Triplets!!

Portrait day at Daddy Daycare

It's amazing what kids do when they see a camera!
We borrowed a fancy digital camera to take Caleb's one year pics, but the kids had to help me practice using the camera first.
