Atlanta Botanical Gardens

Today we ventured to the Atlanta Botanical Gardens.
My favorite part was in the Children's Garden.
They had a whole section with a Peter Rabbit theme.
The kids got to hide in the watering can and crawl under
Mr. Gregor's fence just like Peter.
It was very cute!

Three Man Recycling Band?

Anyone else have trouble keeping your kids out of the recycling?
It's a constant battle around here.
They always have grand plans of what they could do with what they see in the pile -
be it a craft project or some kind of weapon :)
This day they made a little band and were making lots of "music".
It was mainly a percussion section!
The three of them have lots of fun together
and the older two do so well playing with Jacob.

February Snow

I'm very late posting this but here it is.
Our first snow in Georgia and likely the only one this year.
We had beautiful big flakes and it practically snowed the whole day.

We had enough snow for Craig and the boys to build a snow bunny
- or maybe it was a snow Jasmine???

Nothin' Runs Like A Deere

How cute is this?

First Tooth Lost

A few weeks ago Caleb lost his first tooth!

Jacob is feeding himself

Jacob is now feeding himself which frees me up a little more to eat my own food at meals. Hurray for that!!! It is more messy of course.

Visit to Stone Mountain

This is the Confederate Memorial Carving on the side of the mountain.

Over the Christmas break we visited Stone Mountain which is about 30 min. from us. It is a mix between a state park and a toned down theme park. The main feature is the huge granite stone mountain which you can visit the top of in a sky ride. It was quite windy and chilly on top.
