All Things Random

Willow got a fun kit for growing crystals for Christmas so we tried out an edible crystal version and it worked!!


Willow lost her 3rd tooth! It was holding on for a looooong time and had been loose since Christmas break! She's enjoyed poking her tough through the hole. I think she'd forgotten what having a tooth gone felt like since it'd been so long since she lost her last one! She has 3 more wiggly ones right now though. 

Willow's friend Campbell had her birthday party at a roller skating rink recently. We've never been roller skating with the kids so we had many talks beforehand in an effort to prepare Willow for needing to have a good attitude, not expect it to be easy, be patient with herself, expect to fall, yadda yadda yadda. She excitedly put on her roller skates and refused to let me go out with her. Here she is in action. Check out the play area in the video or the picture below because that's where she happily played for the 2 hours of the party after she made it 1/4 of the way around the rink and fell when going across an opening without a wall to hold on to and was d.o.n.e.


"One of these things is not like the other..."

The kids have enjoyed the trampoline and spring-like weather lately. They do a fairly good job of playing nicely together....until they don't, which is always how it ends. Sigh. The laughs are soooo good though. Check them out playing their dragging eachother game


We went to see a matinee of "Zootopia" yesterday then headed to IHOP for dinner. Owen occupied himself by balancing the creamers:

And Willow impressed us by cutting her own pancake with a knife! So grown up!

And this guy must be growing too because he ate his kids meal (grilled cheese and applesauce) plus a FULL pancake from Chris's plate! All after having eating a ridiculous amount of popcorn in the theater!
