Bike Riding

W loves riding his bike & trike so much he didn't want to wait for the snow to melt. He has gotten pretty good at pedaling his trike, downhill. We expect that he will be a pro by this summer.

Just Eatin' Dinner

What can I say, we've got a cute boy. He is such a ham for the camera.

This is one of the better nights eating dinner (he even eats his asparagus). Note, he is drinking out of a big boy cup (something he has been working on for a while in the tub).

The Zoo

We went to the zoo recently. W had a blast. The animals were fun, but I think W had more fun just running around.

Sweet ride.

W loved the monkeys

Helping Pa Pa pull the wagon.

W loved his cream.

Running on the lawn with Grammy.

Fam pic. (we took one of these last time we were at the zoo)

Checking out the tigers.

W was exhausted by the end.

Sledding Part 3

A couple of beautiful spring days in the mountains.

Zoey just likes being out in the snow.

W loves to sled.

Especially when daddy pulls him.

That's the Ski Resort behind us.

More fun with Hats & Shades

More pictures of W in different hats, googles or shades. We keep waiting for him to get over this phase, but no luck yet.

The orange hat was mine, but W took it over. I have to admit, he looks better in it than I did.

"cheese"

W sometimes squats when you ask him to say "cheese" for a picture... not sure why, but it sure is cute.

Thumbs Up

W gives dinner 2 thumbs up (not an easy feat, but he's got it now)

getting off of the bus, going to bed, being told "no" (but who does), coming in from outside

a couple of milestones:

~W got his first kiss from a girl (Kate, his unofficial girlfriend) and a boy (Landon, his bro). It was too cute, he got them when he was leaving school yesterday.

~walks up and down stairs all by himself

~W shreds on his skateboard, he has been working on a few "tricks"

~puts words together, for example-Daddy sit, Mommy eat (he is really into telling us what we should be doing), etc.
