Visit to Seattle

Easton and I just got back from a trip to Seattle to visit Lu, Brett, and Aiden, along with Grandma JuJu and Popa Chompers. We had a great time even though the weather was cold and snowy. But that made for a GREAT day of skiing. A shout out to Brett for taking me to Crystal Mountain for some awesome skiing. Other than that adventure, we went to the Aquarium, which the boys loved. Easton and Aiden had fun together (or, rather, next to each other). They didn't interact too much except when fighting for the iphone. It was a hit. They also loved riding in the wagon together, pulled by Popa and JuJu to Cafe Vitta for some coffee and carrot muffin. Yum! Here are some photos. . . .

More Snow!

This is from last Thursday when the big snow came down! And Mila the cat-dog playing in the snow. And Friday; Parker making Easton laugh.

Sunny, then Snow!

Last week Grandma JuJu came in town to visit and brought the warm weather, thanks! It was 75 degrees on Saturday. Today is Tuesday and it is 20. A few pictures of the extremes . . .

Easton decided that he loves snow and is happy to stomp around in the back yard while the freezing wind whips at his mom's cold frozen body. BURRR!! He reminds me of the little brother from the Christmas Story, who couldn't put his arms down he was so bundled up!

New Invention

Well today Easton went through many, many tissues and I gave him the emptly Kleenex box to play with . . . and . . . Coming to a Babie's R Us near you, the "Sippy Box"! An sleek and sturdy square design allows for fewer spills and mess!

Christmas In Lubbock

Well we started out with professional pictures of the Rehwald fam . . . stay tuned for those. But we had a very nice Christmas in Lubbock until we all got the flu and then it became a "sick house". We are all finally recovering, but it may have been the first holidy where no one ate and everyone lost weight. Needless to say, after the "sickness", the bleach was brought out and sheets were burned (kidding, but not a bad idea).

Easton had a blast and preferred "riding" his boxes of toys over actually opening them. We know what to get him next year! He also liked throwing the many balls he recieved. And Jeremy and I won the best White Elephant gifts, as displayed above. We love to match!

Santa

This past weekend we went to see Santa. What fun! Easton didn't know what to think at first. The farther he was from Santa the better; distance was good :) And a few photos by the tree . . .

15 Months!

Thought I would try to be a professional and take some close ups of the little man. There were airplanes flying overhead the entire time and he had to point each one out. That is the only word he can say and he knows what he is saying. Not Ma ma or Da da, but airplane. Although it sounds more like uhr buah.
