  All the Snow is not keeping the birds away. We have a bird feeder on our front porch and it gets lots of business. Luke likes to look at them but he gets excited and yells "BIRDS!!" So, as a result, he does not get to watch them for long. But I think he probably enjoys watching them fly. So it works out good. Well, except for the birds that were trying to eat. But as you can see, they are not about to waste away.

"Let it snow, Let it snow, you don't really have a choice anyway"

    We have been getting a lot of snow  this year. I took this picture of our almost completely covered mail box a more than a week ago and it has hardly stopped snowing since then. It is really pretty, but we are getting tired of it. We can't wait for summer time. And a few feet to the left of this picture are some moose tracks. There is a Cow and her Calf living in the canal across from our house. Kinda cool but scary too.

"Bath time for Shelby"

   Shelby loves to take baths. She makes the cutest faces. She gets cradle cap and so I have to scrub her head. I think she  thinks it feels good. She makes lots of "oo" sounds when I do. She is getting so big. She will be 4 months old on Sunday and she is wearing 9 month old baby clothes. Luke was the same way. I guess I just have big babies. 

"Our Little Helper"

Luke loves to help out when it is time to clean house. He likes to dust, to help me push the vacuum, and to help me sweep, and he loves to help do the dishes. He loves to get wet. He is not so fond of cleaning up his toys though. But with enough encouragement, he usually will. He loves to learn new things and to be involved in what goes on around the house.
