Little Helper

 
Noah has become quite the little helper.  He handles the rake like a pro.  With the help of the City and our neighbors, the live oak that we lost last year is almost completely cleaned up.  Might be time to plant another tree so we have more leaves for Jacob.

International Day


It was International Day at Noah and Jacob's school last Friday.  Booths were set up to represent different countries from around the world.  Each booth had local pictures, different foods, and goodies for the kids.  They also each had little passports which were stamped as they went along.  Mom pitched in to help at the event and represented Sweden.  It was good to see Noah sitting front and center!

Mater's Tow Chain


While on a nature walk, we happened to stumble across an old tow chain.  Noah and Levi instantly knew that the tow chain must have come from Mater and were more than happy to haul it back to the cabin.

Nap Nanny

We don't think it has many more miles on it, at least for Jacob.

Jacob's First Trip to El Arroyo

 
We took the opportunity to take Jacob out for his first trip to El Arroyo and we forgot to get a picture of him.  Oh well.....Noah and Mom take a good picture together.

Buddies


Meet Matthew. He is Noah's best friend at school. He is the only other kid from Noah's class last year that was placed into his current class and they are the youngest of the children.  We hear everyday about their adventures.  We ask every day who he played with at school and Matthew's name is always top of mind.

Generations

Jacob got the chance to meet his great-grandpa Reeder over Christmas. Hard to believe that there are four generations with over 90 years difference pictured.

Quiet Dinner

Jacob was in one of those moods the other night while we ran some errands. He sacked out at Schlotzkys for one of his patented 30 minute naps during dinner which was perfect timing.

Cool Hand Luke

 
Mom brought this cowboy hat back for Noah from her trip to Dallas.  Although you can't see it here, the star flashes red and green.....needless to say, Noah loved it.

Causality

Causality (also referred to as causation[1]) is the relationship between an event (the cause) and a second event (the effect), where the second event is understood as a consequence of the first.[2]
 
 
 
The Cookie is the cause.
 


A smile is the effect.

Some Clowning Around

 
Noah and Grandpa found a new use for the Lego containers.


It's always good to hear a full belly-laugh from Noah.
