OK, so I haven't posted in a long time, but a lot of you have asked if I please can post! So, here it is! This set of pictures are from the beginning of our week away! We went to Kris's family camp on Aziscohos Lake (near Rangeley) for 2 days and to the Rangeley Lake Resorts for 2 days. It rained the whole time, on and off, but we made the most of it! We still went fishing - see the boys using umbrellas! We had good luck though and caught a nice one! We still had a campfire and made smore's, my favorite. A good start to our trip.

Just a few more pics...sorry they aren't every day! My favorite is from today - the boys had a beach party, even in the middle of a snowstorm. They lounged in the sun (lamp light), made fishing poles and fish and then caught them, made fruit kabobs and had a picnic lunch, and we even played games, like Sam's ring toss. Tons of fun.

Day 53 (January 22nd)

SURPRISE! We had a baby shower for my Sister-in-Law on Sunday. Baby is due April 12th and I can't wait!! They live next door to me, so I plan to see my new nephew daily.

So my computer had a virus that wouldn't let me download anything! It is finally working again, so here are a few pics of the days I missed. Sammy and Grampy A in top left. We went up to Winterport for a sleep over the 13th - 14th. In the morning, Grampy made quite a plate! The boys loved it and asked if he would make the SAME thing next time. The top right is Ethan's hands. He loves my Stampin Up Tattoo kit. If I let him, he stamps from his hands up to his shoulders. I help him color them in. They wash off well, so I just let him do whatever - it makes him happy! So I am happy! The last pic is of last Friday night. Kris set up our tent in the livingroom. He also blew up the air mattress and the four of us watched a movie from inside the tent. Sam was the only one who slept in the tent all night though. I was first to go up to my bedroom. Then Ethan was coughing so bad and needed the humidifier, so Kris brought him up. Sometime during the night, Kris moved from the tent to the couch. So, Sammy is the winner. He even wanted to sleep in the tent AGAIN on Saturday night.

Day 32

I had to post 2 pictures today so you can see what Ethan was reacting to. Kris and I took the boys to see Disney on Ice. Ethan was in awe of everything and smiled the whole time. I looked over during the Little Mermaid song "Under the Sea" and this is what he looked like. We were in the 3rd row, so practically on the ice - great seats. Afterward, he said he loved the jellyfish.

Day 30

Don't they just look so cute! I really don't know how I even snapped this picture. They were acting like animals, like they usually do! They were holding hands, swinging each other in circles. Letting go and sliding across the floor. Then doing it again. I said look and me and say cheese, and this is what I got! Soon after, I went out the door. They had a Daddy night, with pizza and a movie. They love that.

Day 29

After a big snowstorm and being stuck inside all day on the 28th, the boys were anxious to play outside. Lots of sledding down the driveway, since we don't sand, it can be fun for the little kids still. Then we made a snowman. We put on the black top hat, but nothing happened. So, Sam decided maybe we needed his flame hat to bring "Frosty" to life. They waited and waited and waited. That is what they are doing in this picture! Waiting...but they finally gave up and we decided that maybe we just didn't have the right magic hat.
