Cartwheels and Coffee


Today Ashley and I took Maddox and Brooklyn to Cartwheels and Coffee in Carytown for a long overdue playdate! It was a lot of fun. The kids had a blast and were very good!


Riding the bouncy things..

He learned how to go down the slide like this and thought it was the greatest thing ever!

He loved these little things...

Trip to the North

Last week we packed up and headed north to New York to visit Jim's family. We got some good snow while we were there so we took Maddox out some. After Arne and Ada's for a few days we did our yearly tradition, Land of the Vikings. It's a very fun filled lodge type weekend in the middle of nowhere on the New York/PA line. There are a ton of kids so Maddox had a blast. Lastly we stopped in Scranton, PA to visit Jim's friends Mike and Dana who just adopted a baby boy in September. We loved meeting baby Jason who is now 4 months old and cute as he can be!! It was a busy week but lots of fun. Always good to get to see family and friends we don't see often.

The snow was so deep Maddox couldn't even walk. It was so funny though I had to take a picture, even though he was screaming.

My little rocker

Here are a few pics of my future rock star. He is still in love with his guitar. He carries it around the house with his stool from his desk and just randomly sits down and starts playing. Very funny!!
