The day after Christmas we headed up to Mt. Shasta to enjoy the snow for the day. It turned out to be a gorgeous day and we all had a blast!
Unfortunately when we got home, all three kids got a nasty cold with tons of congestion, fevers, etc. We're pretty sure it's RSV. Also Andy broke two of his toes, which made for a not fun rest of our vacation. But we did get lots of quality time together for sure.
Miles is really starting to army crawl around, and he even sat up from laying down. He's a mover, that's for sure!
We all finished breakfast... except for Reid. He's such a slow eater.
Then we packed up and headed to the snow. Isn't Mt. Shasta gorgeous?
It turned out to be pretty warm, so we didn't need all of those layers.
Reid loved pulling this sled around.
Ruby had fun sledding! The snow was pretty ice so we didn't have the kids start up very high.
Our pretty girl.
Happy baby!
He got tired apparently and laid like this for a while. We also ran into the Lundquists up there! How funny.
Ruby loved sledding!
Reid went once or twice with Andy...
...and back to pulling the sled around.
Building a snow man.
He turned out pretty cute.
:)
Back at the car...
...and still pulling his sled.
Ruby loved playing ponies and things with the girls (and apparently Quin too).
We had a music session, mom on the piano, Andy on the melodica, Dad on the guitar, and me on the uke. Quin and Lia were waltzing around the living room, it was so cute.
We got a Rubik's cube for Christmas! We all have fun trying to get it figured out. Oh, and we also stopped at the new In-N-Out in Grants Pass.
He slept for about 10 minutes on the drive home.
Reading to her brothers.
We got Sequence and have been loving it.
And more trains!!
Family movie night. Poor Andy had to keep his broken toes elevated. It's going to take a while for them to heal I think.
Both kids had dentist appointments and did great! Healthy teeth all around.
:)
Sleepy babe.
They decided to make lunch by themselves, it was the cutest thing.
Peek-a-boo! He adores his big sister and brother.
Mmmm... baby food.
More train building.
We're having lots of fun with Ruby on her winter break from school.
She helped me go grocery shopping.
He has almost outgrown his infant car seat.
Saturday evening Ruby started getting pretty sick and had a fever.
So we stayed home on Sunday and Monday (and the rest of the week since then too). She was supposed to make a snow man over the break, so we had fun with their new water colors.
Happy 8 months to little Miles! He has 8 teeth in now and is about 20-21 pounds I think. He's scooting around everywhere, so we have to make sure the floors stay clean and tidy.
We borrowed Ticket to Ride Europe from the library, and it's so fun! We love board games with our kids.
So happy!
And getting into everything.
Andy's foot about 5 days after it happened. Those last two are broken.
Cute little train track.
I asked Ruby to write "groceries" on the calendar. :)
That picture of Miles with baby food on his face could be an advertisement!! So cute!! So sorry that you have had sick kids! You do think of fun things for your family to do even if you are homebound. Hope this illness season is over soon!!
