Snow Day #2

We made it outside again today.  Our walk today was a little bit longer.  We discovered that it is not so easy to walk in the snow.  About halfway through the walk Casey's legs were just worn out.  After so many steps of me dragging/helping him walk Casey would just plop himself down in the snow.  We took several "breaks" but we finally made it back home!

So here's what you do when you don't have any kid size snow gloves around the house.  First you put a pair of mittens on his hands.  The next layer is a sandwhich baggy.  Finally you put on a second pair of mittens (more so to keep the baggy on than anything else).  So his hands stayed dry... but the poor thing did have trouble picking up the snow!

He's all boy... we just had to stop and look at the big truck parked in the snow.

Casey had a tough time walking in the snow.  We had to take several breaks on our way back to the house!

Snow Day!!!

I'm so glad we got a good amount of snow!  We happened to be out of town for the last snow fall and didn't get to see much of anything.  Casey really enjoyed the 5-10 minutes we spent outside yesterday.  I'm sure he was nice and warm with the tons of layers he was bundled in.  I was the one that was more than a little chilly!

Merry Christmas

18 months and talking

Casey's language has exploded within the past month. It is so neat (and funny) to listen to him try out new words... which he is so eager to do! His newest word is banana which comes out in the form of "nanana" with some sort of weird tongue roll thing.

So much to discover

Casey enjoyed another fun evening in the park.

This is just one picture from a series of laughing photos... you get the idea.

Ta-da...

I said TA-DA!

So the story behind this photo... as we were leaving the park Casey saw a man getting ready for a run by doing push-ups in one of the parking spaces. As the man left Casey promptly walked over and began to do his own push-ups... too cute.

Bye-bye park. Until we meet again...

Swing Dancing!

So these two clips don't really have anything to do with Casey. But swing dancing is such a big part of our lives that I thought I would go ahead and post these on here. Every so often at a swing dance we will have something called a jam circle. Basically everyone gathers around in a circle while random couples move into the center to show off their dance moves. It's neat to see what everyone can do.

Here's a short clip of a flip. Not great. But you get the idea.

This dance is known as Balboa. Tons of fun!

Casey's "play pen"...

Casey does have a little of his mama in him! Look at that curl!

Our brave boy... a little too brave!!!
