"Camping"

Its definitely too cold and rainy to go camping in the woods, so Stephen took Michael "camping" in the playroom last night. They bought little lanterns and found the sleeping bags and it was all Michael talked about the entire day!

Pretending to go to sleep after we set the tent up.

He told daddy that the sun was going down at 5 and it was time to camp, then was ready for bed at 6, patiently waited until 7 to set up the tent, and cordially agreed to take a bath before bed...he was so excited, he probably would have done anything we asked him too!

Ready for lights out! Can you see his little smile behind his thumb...

I made pancakes with strawberry sauce and bananas for breakfast! But apparently Savannah was still bummed she didn't get to camp too...Who knew pancakes could be so sad!

VIDEOS! YAY!

Just another bitterly cold afternoon, and instead of tackling the 700 things on my to do list I'm tediously uploading videos!

Yesterday morning we braved the below freezing temps to visit the Smithsonian "Zoo-Zeum" and see the humpback whale and dinosaurs...and the whale, and the whale, and the whale...Savannah very much LOVES the whale lol!


And what else do you do on a cold, snowy evening when you've been cooped up inside all day...don a pink tutu and dance!


Michael got a gummy bear for going potty, actually he took two, but wanted 1 more and we said no. He was really tired after his nap and this is his explanation for how he was wronged lol!
