Winter Fun

We have all had that stomach flu that has been going around. Darren has had it the longest, and had a rash on his cheeks (as you can see). He seems to be all better now, though he gets fevers in the evening still, and really enjoys cuddling. He had an appointment at the hospital for the Neo-Natal Follow -up Clinic. He's doing well. The nurses and pediatrician were happy to see him again. He's almost 17lbs now. We ventured out in the snow this morning. The men (Daddy and Evan) shovelled and then we went for a walk in the blizzardy snow. We came inside for some hot chocolate... I'm sure there's a lot more shovelling to come - they say it's only just begun!

Darren is still rolling and often finds himself stuck. I think Evan did the exact same thing in the same spot...maybe I should find that picture!
"...all dressed up to go..." Evan's favourite quote from his favourite book, The Party by Barbara Reid. If I'm putting my coat on, or if Evan is getting his coat on, he says that we're "all dressed up to go."

Love your pictures! Poor Darren looks like he doesn't understand what he is doing in that coat! Bet you're looking forward to spring and no more snowsuits!!

I love the picture with Eric and Darren, we have a similiar picture with Eric and Evan and it is proudly displayed in our home--it just shows so much love to me. Keep the pictures coming!!

Poor family! Did you get sick, too? Even though the babies are sick, I think they look so beautiful with those rosy cheeks!
