What have we been up to?? Nothing much. winter is a hard time for us due to the fact that we are cooped up inside all day and night with nothing to do. We have found a few things to keep us occupied and to pass our days... Hallie got invited to a tea party with all her friends in our ward. She got to dress up, make cupcakes and play with all the girls that we only see on sundays.

these kids love to dress up. Cole loves his Superman costume and either wants to wear that or his buzz lightyear jammies everywhere we go... and sometimes I give in to his whining and put them on. This little boy is easy to please! Also, while we are on the subject of Cole, today was a huge milestone for him. He went potty on the toilet all by himself!!! I am hoping this will last and that I will no longer be having to buy diapers! Wish us luck:)

we play alot of games. Mostly Hallie and I do when Cole is napping but Cole does love his hungry, hungry hippos. Hallies favorite games are Guess who, Horton hears a who, and Operation.

and this is what Ive been up to! Its been fun to learn how to make cute bows for Hallie and then teaching some good friends how to do it and in return, they teach me more fun tricks! It really has made these last few weeks go by extra quick:)
