Blizzard 2015

Well, we had our first major snow of the season and it was a good one.  We got about 3 feet in Framingham.  We did get some good sledding in!

 

 

 

 

Snow fun weekend

We got our first snow storm this weekend and it was mostly done on Saturday.  So, we decided to bundle up and play in the snow and make a snowman in the front yard. 

After a long time of being outside the kids came in for hot chocolate.  The kids were exhausted but in heaven.

 

On Sunday we went sledding with Jen, Dave and Shane.  We went over to the Framingham Country club, which had some awesome hills to sled on. 

 

5 Year Checkup

Elan had his 5 year checkup today.  The doctor was happy with everything and passed the vision and hearing test with flying colors.  He weighs 43lbs and is 42 3/4 inches high.

 

Bowling

This weekend we went bowling with the Hollywoods.  It was candle-pin bowling so the balls are really small.  Mila would toss the balls down the lane as fast as she could.  Elan was a little more strategic in his game.

Mila's first dentist visit

Today was Mila's first dentist visit.  We scheduled it so both kids would get their teeth cleaned at the same time.  Mila did great and charmed everyone in the office.  Elan has never liked the dentist but this time he fought the hygienist a little bit less than normal and got most of his teeth cleaned.  Elan has 2 loose teeth so we may be getting a visit from the tooth fairy in the next few months.

Tennis

We signed Elan up for Tennis this winter.  He did really well his first class.  During Elan's class, Mila got to run around and play with balls and cones, so she was in heaven too.

One thing that Elan and Mila are really good at is falling asleep in unusual positions.  We think they are playing and then all of a sudden just pass out.

More and more legos

It was a cold and rainy weekend so Elan got to go get another Lego kit.  This one was over 1,000 pieces and for ages 9-16.  Took him a while to put it together but he loved doing it.  Mila is starting to get into Legos too, which we think is fantastic! 

Making crafts

Today we decided to head over to Mashpee and make some crafts.  Mila took the whole thing very serious.  I don't think I've ever seen her so focused on a project.

New Year 2015!

Today is the first day of 2015 and what do Mat and I do...we decide to jump into the ocean!  It was cold and I think Elan and Mila were quite confused.  Maybe next year they will go in with us!
