Snow day

I took Andrew out to play in the snow for awhile while William was sleeping. He helped me shovel our mailbox out and then I pulled him around on his sled. After awhile Will Will woke up, I took him out for a few minutes. Below is a picture of Andrew making his "Snow Andrew" as he would say.

A Winter Picnic

Andrew really wanted to have a picnic the other day, so we decided to have one in our living room. He picked out all the food and had the picnic blanket laid out. We had carrots, applesauce, turkey, and clementines. You will notice the bandaid under his eye. He said he wanted to have the carrots and ran back in the kitchen to get them. He was awful quiet, so I asked what he was doing and he told me nonchalantly that he was trying to open the carrots. Well, he brought them in and we started having our picnic. About 10 minutes later, his face had a little bit of blood on it. I asked him what he did and he said he poked himself with the knife when he was trying to get the carrotts open!?!??!! After picturing all the horrific things that could have happened to him, I yelled at him and had a good talking. I thought that we were past all the ages where the kids get into everything? He is just becoming a little dare devil. A few weeks ago, I was giving William a bath and I came out to find Andrew sitting at the top of the steps in a rubbermaid container getting ready to slide down. I stopped him, of course, and told him he would flip right over and he said "but doggie and blankie didn't", meaning he tried it with them first to see what would happen.

Anyways, back to the picnic. After we all got over the knife incident, we had a lovely little picnic in our living room. William chowed down on the turkey. :-) Oh, and notice Andrew is still wearing "The Wrestle Shirt" (see below...).
