January is flying by!

Our new year is off to a great start. James is busy learning and playing! In early January James and Tobias planted a little herb garden for me. The plants have sprouted and in just a couple of more weeks I should have some fresh basil!Tobias was off for the first part of January so he and James spent a lot of time playing together. This picture was taken while James was helping Tobias wash Bandit, our dog.
Before things started to speed back up with school and work, we squeezed in a couple of play dates. Here is James playing with his best buddy, Clayton!I love this picture! The sun was right behind him, but you can still see his beautiful smile!The past couple of weeks have been so cold for us that we had to break out James' winter coat. Here he is brushing his teeth before I take him off to school.Cold weather also means warm flannel pjs. This was taken on a chilly Saturday morning.Here's a picture of my beautiful mom who visited us last weekend. It was great to see her. Unfortunately, this is what met her! James was teething and sick during her visit. It was pretty miserable! Can you believe all those teeth James was popping through?! No wonder he was fussy!This picture was taken yesterday afternoon. All I can say is, yes, his feet really are that big!

Super cute! I love the one of him playing with Clayton. He looks so content playing with his friend :)

Fast as the Flash

The boys have a need for speed!  Recently James and Eli built Pine Wood derby cars to compete in the James' Boy Scout troop. In the beginning... We did some scholarly research to prepare.  Thank you YouTube! My step-dad, AKA Pawpaw was a big help and taught James to use power tools. Sanding is always fun! James designed and built his car with minimal assistance. Spray paint is always fun. Added weights to make it as heavy as the rules allowed. The finished products! The race was a lot of fun! James didn't win but he worked really hard and was really proud of his car. While his derby car wasn't the fastest, James was the fastest in a recent track race.  My future Olympic sprinter!   Zoom zoom zoom

M-I-C-K-E-Y and a bunch of other fun stuff

Everyone grab their Mickey Ears!  We just returned from a wonderful vacation to Walt Disney World.  We flew down to FL from MA, my sister and her beautiful family and my aunt and cousin all flew from CA, and my mom traveled from MO!   All 11 of us stayed in one beautiful villa right on the Walt Disney property and had a great time. We celebrated JillMama's 60th birthday in style.   We also celebrated my nephew's 2nd birthday while in WDW! Everyone had a great time! We celebrated Halloween a little early at Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party!   Can you tell we're the Avengers!?!  Eli was the Incredible Hulk, Tobias was Tony Stark (AKA Iron Man), James was Captain America, and I was Black Widow. By the end of the night, the Incredible Hulk was done, but still really cute! Gabe (age 4) and James got along great! Elias and Gavin (also 2) were fast friends too. Fun times on a ride with my little man! Rrrr Matey!  ...

Winter in Boston

Happy February!  I can't believe I haven't updated since November when we've had such an exciting couple of months!   Our Lego family for Christmas 2014 designed by James!  There are a lot of firsts and developmental milestones in first grade!  James finished his first chapter book over the Christmas break!  So proud of him - he is reading above grade level. James also remains very active with track and is working with his gym teacher to start a running club at his elementary school! This was a fun assignment for the entire family.  Once he completed the assignment, James presented it to his class. We did family Christmas pictures this year with a great photographer.  We met at Minute Man National Park - where Paul Revere was captured- and had fun taking pictures together.  I worked the night before and it was cold out, but the pictures still turned out great! The 2014 Walters Family Christmas picture! My two cuti...
