Fun in the Snow and Water!!

January has been a fun month. We have been taking it easy and playing with all of our new Christmas toys. Regen is back in preschool after winter break and Regen has also started a gymnastics class. Regen is going to start skiing this year too. That should be fun and interesting. Regen has finally gotten comfortable in her swim class after Daddy has been practicing with her often. Claire is 10 months old now and into EVERYTHING. We can't keep anything out of her mouth and is happy exploring the house. We are looking forward to spring so we can go back outside to play.

TRENT'S 2nd BIRTHDAY PARTY!!

One of Regen's many silly faces


Smiling for Grandpa


The presents were much more interesting than the cupcakes..sorry mom!


Happy Birthday Trent!


Regen's thinks if she waits patiently she will be able to 'help' Trent open his presents



We got 5 inches of snow and Regen was outside ALL day playing with Cousin Anthony, Cousin Trent, Papa, and Mommy and Claire. After the fun in the snow, we went straight to swimming where Regen was a super swimmer. She swam all by herself underwater as if she had been doing it for years!!
