Seattle to SLC

Aunt Amber and Andrew came to visit us.  They were hoping to get away from the cold, wet weather in Seattle but, unfortunately, it was cold and wet in Utah too.  We all still had a fun time together even though we never left the house.  We hope they come again soon!

 Even though it was cold we took a walk.  We only made it to the end of our street before turning around because we were freezing.

 All aboard the wiener train!  Choo Choo!


 Grandpa and Grandma Erickson, Aunt Heather, and Aunt Jennie came for a visit.  All the boys loved playing with Grandpa.  Unfortunately, we didn't take very many pictures of their visit:(


 Oliver and Andrew played really well together.  It was fun to watch them take what each other were playing with.  This time Andrew was going in for the kill but most of the time it was Oliver since he is mobile.

 Andrew wiped out from playing too hard with the boys!

Family Time

Some of the best moments with the boys are early in the morning when we are still in our pj's.  We love hiding under the covers, wrestling, and tickling each other in bed.  




Oliver takes any chance he can get to be on the counter.  I think he likes it so much because it puts him closer to food.  This little man eats so much and yet he only weighs 17 pounds at a year.






One of Spencer's favorite things to do is go for a bike ride.  We are so glad we got him a balance bike cause he cruises around so well on it.

Letter of the Week: V

After a month and a half break I'm back to posting.  I'm apologizing now for the overload of pictures that will be posted over this next week.  

I think Spencer liked the letter V more than his own letter because it involved volcanos.  He enjoyed the activity so much that we ended up doing it every day for the rest of the week.  So if you are looking for a cheap, fun activity for your kids I highly recommend volcanos.  All you need is baking soda, vinegar, and food coloring.  We poured baking soda into a pan then used a dropper to make areas bubble.  We also did the old fashioned  pour baking soda into a cup then pour vinegar into the cup.  This one didn't take as long but it was cool to watch.  Happy volcano making!
