Winter Recap

A few weeks ago, Jen took Ethan in for his annual check up, (which we missed last year probably because we were so busy with building our house and getting our other house ready to sell --yuck! That was a stressful time.)

Ethan measured in at 50" tall which is the 82nd percentile. He was also weighed in at 47 lbs which is the 28th percentile. 

Jonas had his 4 month checkup and measured in at 25 1/2 in which is the 54th percentile. He weighed 15 lbs 4 oz (37%) and his head measured in at 17" (85% ). (He is now 5 months old, which we'll talk about in the next post.)

Jonas had his blessing on January 5th. We had a great time with lots of family visiting. We didn't get very many pictures, though.

Visiting Grandma Morrey in February.

 This was Ethan's Valentine's box for school. He was really into Angry Birds for a few weeks.

 This was our Valentine's dinner. Baked dijon pecan encrusted salmon, almond rice pilaf, a garden salad and steamed asparagus.

 For dessert we indulged in homemade Liege waffles topped with a homemade vanilla bean gelato, chocolate sauce, strawberries and toasted almonds.

 Here's a cute pic of Jonas and his puppy.

 Ethan turned 7 on March 1st. He had a Lego themed birthday party. Here's the pinata we made.

 Kyle made this banner for the party.

 Jen made lego cakes.

 Kyle also made up a game where each kid had a piece of the lego guy and were blind folded while the other kids gave directions on where to place the piece.

 This is how the lego guy ended up after the game.

 

Each kid had about 10 minuted to build a car out of legos, then they had fun racing them. It was fun to see all the creative cars that were made.

Ethan recently lost his two front teeth, each a day apart.
