Lego Land (1/2)

Charlie LOVES LEGO's. So what better place to go than LegoLand!  It's an amusement park geared towards kids under 12.  It's awesome.  Charlie can do a bunch of fun rides. 

First, you have to wake up early!

Then get in the car!

Sometimes Maggie gets sleepy

But she's ready for her plane ride!  (Actually, she did not enjoy this!)

Travelling to Cali!

We made it to Cali!

There were legos -

And the olympics:

And a great release of energy!

New Dolls from Aunt Maria

My Aunt Maria gave us a bunch of amazing old dolls that she had made for her kids when they were little.  We gave them to Maggie (& Charlie) for Christmas.  Maggie is super into them.  We have a little doll bed, and she loves to put them in there to go to sleep!  Here's Maggie playing with two of them.

Charlie at Pre-School

Recently, Charlie came home with a bunch of paper plates with cool designs on them.  He loves them, but wouldn't tell us how he made them (we had some guesses!).  Luckily, Charlie's pre-school sends us pictures sometimes!

I like that he was wearing his hat backwards for some reason!

Maggie in the Stars

I have similar pictures of Charlie from about the same age... Magical

Charlie lookin cool

I asked Charlie to wait for me over here while I got Maggie out of the car.  He said "I'm going to stand like this"  and he did!

Then he literally rolled his eyes at me!  (I had to ask him to do it again, so I could get the picture)  Look closely

Then he said his hand hurt, and he wouldn't take any more pictures - Photo shoot OVER!

Daddy & Maggie @ The Museum

Charlie wasn't feeling great, so didn't want to come to the museum with me and Maggie Saturday.  But we had so much fun!  Here's us stopping for a snack

Strutting our stuff

Riding a "horse"

And another snack!

Maggie In a Box

One of Maggie's new favorite hobbies is finding out what she can fit inside.  For example... she can fit inside this box!  You betcha!

Another Amazing Snow Day!

Gray's Birthday Party

Mom and Maggie weren't feeling up to it, so Daddy brought Charlie to his friend Gray's Birthday party.  It was super fun. 

Here's Charlie doing his Cupcake thing!

Here's the birthday boy & his mom Amber.  Happy Birthday Gray!

Snowy Day Video Montage

New iPhones evidently have a "make me cry" button - it makes this:

Maggie wants to be aloooooone

Sometimes Maggie just wants to be alone! (Well, with Charlie!)

Happy Christmas y’all!

I hope santa was good to you this year! We had an excellent day!

CHARLIE SMASH!!!

Happy Birthday Charlie!

Happy birthday to my favorite little dude! He got to spend the day at Marbles with Avery! So happy!

Charlie got dressed up for the Nutcracker!

Before his big dance recital, Charlie got all dressed up and watched the Nutcracker!

So handsome!

Charlie Dancing (Ave Maria)

Charlie has been in Dance Class for the last few months.  They had their Holiday recital a few days ago.  Daddy (me) tried to video tape it, but I utterly failed :( 

This is a video from Charlie's friend's Mom - but you can see Charlie in most of it.  He's amazing!

Some days you get to drive the pretend ice cream truck!

Tomato snowman!

Charlie and nana made a tomato snowman. It looked way better before charlie dropped it. :)

Charlie at the dentist

Up on a rock!

Happy thanksgiving

Today, I’m thankful for these goofy kids!

The only thing that calms Maggie down

A ride on Gaga’s walker! Check out her adorable outfit too!

Bad Parenting

I.... Have no excuse for this one, but it was fun

A Few More From Marbles

Charlie found this awesome hammock in a pirate ship, and was content to chill for about an hour!

Meanwhile, Maggie was looking through a fish-tank.  Where's Mama?

There she is!

Livin' On the Edge

Here's how I found Maggie one day.  She had gotten the chair Gaga T made, put it on the toy box Uncle Tom made, and was just straight chilling!

She's so Cool!

Maggie Chillin' with Charlie

Last night, Charlie was watching Curious George (AGAIN), and Maggie decided she wanted to snuggle with her big brother.  It was adorable.

Here's how they were watching TV

Where's Maggie?

There she is!

So cute!
