More Winter Fun...

I guess for historical purposes I need to document my broken baby. Finn got a toddler fracture on our most recent excursion to the mountains. We are not exactly sure how it happened, we just know he had an exciting sled ride with Ian & Eliza and that he couldn't walk when we got home.


He has been such a tough little guy, when the doctor examined him, she had a hard time locating the hurt place because he wouldn't change facial expressions for any part of the leg she touched! But I realized that he was holding his breath when she pressed on the lower part of his leg. He crawls and scoots around a lot and also walks with his splint on. We haven't ever had a broken bone in our family before! It's been amazing how pleasant he is despite being hurt.

Winter Fun

It seems that everybody stops blogging during the cold winter months! I hope it is because everybody is too busy playing in the snow. One day in January we took an excursion to Ashton Idaho and cross country skied into Lower Mesa Falls. They close the road to cars and let skiers and snowmobilers take over.


 We spent about 5 hours skiing, with a few snack and cocoa breaks.
 You can see a bit of the waterfall to the right of Ian.
 The kid's were super troopers. They worked so hard and were happy most of the time. Finn's frustration was that he wanted to walk but we kept sticking him back in the sled!




Finn is changing in growing up so much! We were surprised recently to notice that our blue-eyed baby has been replaced by a little green eyed monster! Where did those green eyes come from??
