Birthday Week: Winter

I don't really feel like we've had too much winter yet this time around. He had a bit more true winter last year when we were snowed in at the farm and he got to help Grandpa move hay around to feed the cows and tromp all around in his snow boots.

So far for this December and January it has just been mostly bitterly cold so we've resorted to inside fun. Above, he is playing Zingo with Daddy & Grammy. He is a rather agressive Zingo guy, I have to admit.

His true love just now is Lego Star Wars for Wii which was a gift from Erik and Kelli for Christmas. If that isn't going on his next favorite, of course, would be making Star Wars ships out of Lego pieces with Daddy. This shot has the added bonus of a Star Wars shirt too. He did, in the course of the year, complete the cycle of Star Wars movies. I don't think he is as much a fan of them as he is of the game or Lego bits, but perhaps when he is older? (I don't think he could manage not to be in our house).

Finally, the only snowy type day in 2011. He and M decided to have a picnic in the bitter cold wearing their snow boots with just traces of snow in the background. Having an increasingly mobile, stubborn, and active sister has definitely been an ongoing adaptation this year, but I'm pleasantly surprise how well they get along and how much fun they are starting to have together. Makes my heart melt to watch them play and laugh together. Too wonderful.
