How did we miss February?

Somehow a whole month has zipped by. We barely have any pictures to show for it. Here's a pic of Gwydion, Gavin and Papa on Valentine's Day. Gwydion helped make the brownies.


We also visited Grandma Diane and saw her new Guinea pig, Patty.



Other than a little Valentine's fun, it has been the normal routine. The weather has been up and down here: hot one day, cold the next. So of course, everyone got sick. Poor Gwydion missed a week of school because he was so pathetic. He's back to school now and very happy to see his friends. He has lots of little friends and is constantly asking for one of them to come over for a playdate. Here are some pictures of Gwydion's indoor fun:

Gwydion and his race track.

Gwydion the big, green caterpillar.

Gwydion built a model of the city of Sand Springs, complete with Carl's Jr., the movie theater, and library.

Gwydion is enjoying school very much, though he is stressed about writing in his journal. His handwriting is constantly improving though, and I hope it won't be so stressful for much longer. The talked a lot about Chinese New Year in school and did lots of activities, including making paper lanterns and dragons.

Next week starts Gwydion's spring break. He gets 2 whole weeks off (it was 3 until we had a week of ice), during which we'll be making a visit to Cincinnati. He's very much looking forward to seeing Grandma and his cousins, and of course, to staying in a hotel. He's even saving his money so that he has something to spend on the trip!
