Drawing With Oma

Last night Oma and the kids had a drawing session before bed.

They went through a lot of paper, but it was worth it.

Kassidy on the Prowl

The poor baby's been very sniffly and it keeps her from sleeping peacefully. Tonight however shed decided to stay up, and me, too. She seems to enjoy having the kitchen all to herself.

Tea for Three

Before Oma came to visit us in Texas, she spent a few days with Grandma and Grandpa. They all enjoyed tea at the Boston Harbor Hotel.

Sunday Gallery

Katharine created a bunch of illustrated panels last week, and has one running comic strip going in her sketchbook (the pictures below are not sequential).

In this picture it looks like Lukas got inspired by Katharine's panels (minus the text). Here are him and Gwen raising their glasses to the king:

Then he returned to his standard superhero fare- here is Batman battling Joker:

Outside Lukas discovered that he can rub plants into the pavement and make green marks. Here is a "green" Batman:

3-D

Linda saw her first 3-D movie with us over the weekend ("How to Train Your Dragon").

Tutu

One of Keira's favorite words in "tutu". 

It is also one of her favorite things to wear, so she was very motivated to learn the word for it :)

Random Pictures

Book Club

The boys stuffed their jammies with as many silkies and other dress up things they could find to see who would look the most like a superhero.

Kassidy Stats

Kassidy is almost 10 months old and crawling. She's trying to pull up on furniture, too. At her last well-baby check up, which was at 9 months, she weighed 19.13 lbs, was 28.25 inches long and her head circ. was 18.25 inches. She's still a very happy and content baby and a true blessing to all of us.

Chalk Art

Forget budding leaves and blossoming flowers- one of the first signs of Spring is when the driveway shows its colors.

Superheroes were the theme on Sunday. Here is Lukas posing with the superhero version of himself.

Lennon, as always, was just happy to be Robin.

Katharine and Charlotte sketched all of the super girl characters (and snuck in a few mermaids for good measure).

We also tossed the Frisbee around a little bit. 

Spring is in the air, but I still wouldn't mind one more surprise snowfall :)

Kassidy

Here is a cute picture of Kassidy that we took last week. 

The kids were dressing up in grown-up clothes, and Kassidy found a loose tie to play with.
