But most of the time, it's a bit more mundane around here, like 1) making cookies...
2) Drawing and coloring. Hadley loves to color more than I recall Owen doing at that age. She even filled in one of these adult coloring patterns. I was impressed that she found and colored the same elements in this complex design. And that's her writing her name (and Owen's) at the top of the page.
She also drew this self-portrait of her running. I saw her running just like this picture and went to see what she was doing. I think she was modeling for herself! Ha! That's two filled eyes and two cheeks; the open circles are her shoulders. (Owen's people just got bodies this year. I guess that's another benefit to being the second child.)
And 3) going to the library. So thankful they love books, especially when Owen "reads" to his sister. Came upon this surprise in the middle of the kids' section. :)
These were dragons they made at a library story time. We got home and I think the dragons were trying to melt some of the snow with their fiery breath.
H and I have also been known to picnic in a basement fort.
Did I mention that the cats are getting lots of attention these days? Friend or foe, just depends on the day.
And then we go back and sled some more.
