Snow

A few weeks ago it snowed here, and we didn't have any sleds, so we had to improvise a little.

I love that first pic, it's like he's looking at her thinking she's crazy or something.

Baltimore Aquarium

Last Thursday Steve got us tickets to go to the National Aquarium in Baltimore. So we packed up the whole gang and headed off. The kiddos had a blast, and for anyone who's never been there, I recommend it. The kids really liked the Rain Forest exhibit, but most of all, their favorite was the dolphin show and exhibit. They talked about the dolphins jumping high and splashing people for days afterwords. I think that this may be a outing we will have to repeat!

The kids are doing great with their potty training. Steve was brave and took them out to the mall yesterday without a diaper on, and there were no accidents. Olivia still likes her little potty, but every once in awhile I can get her to go on the big one. Once Steven realized all the praise he gets by going on the potty, it's been smooth sailing with him. He loves getting stickers and having everyone clap for him. Plus, he loves his Thomas undies that he got in the mail from Papa and Nana. Now we just have to start working on staying dry at bedtime.
The kids are getting excited to see Uncle Brian, and Aunt Laura, and of course Baby Gwen in a couple of weeks. And they want to go to New York (even though they don't really understand where or what it is). It will be nice to get the cousins together again :o)

Everyone is doing great, and we miss everyone. Can't wait to come in and see you all again.
Love
Holly, Steve, Olivia, Steven
