Almost spring!

We've had fun with head colds the last few weeks, so most of our play time has been inside. Here are a few new pics.

December!

We've had a lot going on this month! We had 10 inches of snow to play in, so we built some snowmen. Gwydion had a fabulous Christmas, as you can see from the photos below.


Photos removed so the music from the slideshow doesn't play the whole time you're viewing the page. If anyone still wants to see the December pics, email me.

Thanksgiving Adventure!

Our first stop for Thanksgiving weekend was in Alabama. We got to meet some of Gwydion's cousins. They had a really nice time playing together.

We also met Raj, Shawna, Anand and Elizabeth at the Huntsville Botanical Gardens. Even in late fall, this was a fun place to go.

Elizabeth, Gwydion and Anand pose in their strollers.


Gwydion loved playing in the fountains, no matter how cold they were.


Hey, what's behind this door?


Elizabeth and Gwydion play in the sunflower maze.

Digging up dinosaur bones!

Since we were only 6 hours from Cincinnati, we drove up to see Grandma Susan too! Everyone was very happy to see us. Gwydion got to spend more time with his aunts, uncles, and cousins.

Gwydion and Uncle Nathan.

Playing trains with Grandma.

Walking down the stairs. Up, down, up, down.

Gwydion loves to play funny jokes just like Daddy.

Thomas the Tank Engine, Pumpking Hunting, Halloween, and more!

Gwydion really enjoyed helping put up the Halloween decorations. He especially liked his new hat!

Hey, this looks pretty good!

We had a short visit with Papa Rick and got to see the truck he drives. Gwydion loved it!

This is Gwydion in the hotel room the night before we saw Thomas. He thought the whole bed was his.


Where are we Papa?

Is that what I think it is?


Oooh! A train table!

This place isn't so bad after all.

What's that over there?


There's Henry!


Wow, they have real trains here too!


Riding in Thomas's coach with Papa.


Even the rocks here are fun.


Dancing with Mama, one of his favorite activities.


Playing with the neighbor's puppy.



Pumpkins everywhere!


Helping Grandma pick out a pumpkin.


These pumpkins are just my size.

Gwydion dressed like Woody from Toy Story.

He was really sleepy by this point.

Autumn is here and it's time for an update!

Here's Gwydion playing with various costume pieces. He likes to turn on his keyboard and dance to the music while trying on his hats and capes. He also likes to watch himself in the mirror while he's doing this. Quite funny, really!



Gwydion in my office/sewing room. Not sure what he's doing, but he's cute!


This pic gives me an idea of what he'll be like as a teenager. Asleep and on the phone.



Next are a few pics of our visit with Grandma Susan and Nathan. We're walking through Grandpa's back yard.
Of course Gwydion finds the messiest thing he can to play with. In this case it is a pile of cut grass.


Here's a pic of the whole crew at Woolaroc.


And finally, a picture of Gwydion playing with the balloon Grandpa brought for him.
