Wednesday: outside, Flurry, train

Ethan and Leah came over today.  We let the older kids try their hand at sledding by themselves.  I wasn't completely sure it would work, but they seemed to have a great time.

The younger two were outside for about an average of two minutes.

Later in the day Joshua had a heart-to-heart with Flurry under the tree.   I think he was saying, "Flurry, get out."

The boys played with Duplos a lot today.  Isaac decided it was Giraffe's birthday and made a candle and cake, and then we all had (real) birthday cookies.  Joshua then decided that his lovies, Bear, Elephant, and Square, all needed to have birthdays too.  Square didn't have a face, so Isaac proceeded to put lots of faces on Square, with Joshua's oversight.
