"I'm ready for church, Mom!" Natalie (and Ben) love wearing my shoes, especially Sunday shoes, around the house. They call them "noisy shoes" and love clomping on the tile. Needless to say Dad loves it as he tries to sleep in a little!

Can you see what Natalie filled her cereal bowl up this morning? Mike and Ike's candy. Nice and healthy, right! She also chose some yogurt to balance it out! It reminded me of one of Bill Cosby's routines about feeding his kids chocolate cake for breakfast. His kids convince him it's a good choice because it had eggs, flour, and milk in it. The kids chant: "Dad is great, he feeds us chocolate cake!" Ha, ha!

Instead of staying home to watch the historic inauguration of Barak Obama, we chose to go on an outing to the Monte L. Bean Museum in Provo. We had a good time checking out the taxidermy animals on display. The kids hesitated at the door when they saw the first animals, but then they were able to enjoy it after I reminded them that the animals we stuffed...just like teddy bears! Afterward, we bought a treat the the candy counter in the BYU Bookstore. (Just FYI, I DID watch the inauguration over the web later.)

I love little kids artwork...especially my own little kid's artwork! Ben has been really into Batman this week and drew this picture of Robin at his friend Tyler's house. Each week I try to showcase one piece of art from school, church or home on the refrigerator gallery.

We have a new toy at our house...one that I have a love-hate relationship with. It's a new PS3 (Playstation 3). Bryan has been shopping for one for several months and finally found a deal he was happy with. Ben has been in heaven playing Lego Batman and Lego Indiana Jones (Bryan likes it a little too!). We're on the hunt for the new Lego Star Wars. I know it's a boy thing to love video games and all but I just don't get it...oh well I know they don't get what I love about crafting. To each his own hobbies I guess! Natalie likes to play the "paystation" a little too, but she's like me and can only stare at the TV for so long. Cute picture though of them snuggled up together on the couch.

More cookie baking...we just can't get enough cookies at our house. It seems like when one batch is gone it's only a matter of days before we get out the chocolate chips and are at it again. My waistline is definitely absorbing the effects of such habits. I need to start looking for low fat recipes!

We're all getting a little anxious for Spring around here...Natalie asked me for a snack today and after a little searching through the pantry she decided she needed a snowcone! I couldn't convince her it was too cold for such snacks, as you can see. We hope the groundhog has good news in a few weeks!
