barrett: 69 months old


Sorry for the late post - I've been under the weather with that head cold that everyone under the sun is suffering from right now, and I was right along with them.  I took any "severe" cold medicine I could find, and hibernated for a couple of days.  But I'm out of the weeds, and finally getting to share this handsome guy's monthly pictures!  Barrett is hard at work on his Valentine's Day box for school.  He's going with a "space" theme, and right now everything is either space or dinosaurs.  We went to the Natural Science Museum last weekend, and Barrett never wanted to leave the dinosaur exhibits!  He wants to have his birthday party there, and I think we're going to go for it - the kids get to dig in the dino pit!


Likes:  dinosaurs, all things space, going to birthday parties (two this month alone!), the RV show, funfetti macarons (I test out recipes on my kids), Trial Xtreme 3 BMX video game

Dislikes:  putting down his electronics, not getting to play outside because all we have is rain!

114 months old


Lately, Britton has been super-busy!  She's gearing up for her three dance routines for the recital in May, still participates in GEMS (Girls in Engineering, Math, and Science) and student council, and will soon begin soccer.  She doesn't miss piano at all, and gets a kick out of seeing Barrett learn piano for the first time.  The hubs just got back from Japan, and brought back squishies, stickers, and erasers for Britton - she loves that stuff!  


Likes:  reading, our new tree swing, watching Super Bowl ads

Dislikes:  not getting to stay up and watch the entire Super Bowl
