Happy 4th Birthday Diana!

Diana had a very busy birthday week. Nana and Papa Richard came up to celebrate. She had a party with Ella at Ella's house. The girls went to a birthday tea. And we celebrated on her actual birthday at home, school, and at Tutta Bella.

Jessica made a rainbow cake.



Diana received many wonderful presents.

Snow!!

Wow! We've had a lot of snow over the past few days. We were off on Monday for MLK and Tuesday we had a late start and an early pick up. Both Wednesday and Thursday school was closed. We've spent the time playing in the snow, playing in the house, baking cookies, watching Sesame Street (and other of Diana's favorites), and doing a bit of cleaning. Diana and Sean walked over to a friend's house for a play-date. We'll see what tomorrow brings and how we'll hold up with another day at home.

Hanukkah and Christmas

We have been busy! Lily is very active and we have to watch her all the time. She is rolling everywhere and beginning to scoot backwards. She is sitting up for a few minutes at a time. She is eating a lot and enjoying all kinds of food. Diana is almost 4. Wow! She is keeping us on our toes. She loves art and reading. She also loves her baby sister.

We had a busy Christmas and Hanukkah. We spent Christmas in Seattle with Sean's family and went to Portland to celebrate Hanukkah with my family.








Lily tries to open Diana's present. She loves wrapping paper.
