Snow, Cousins, & Snowboots

Saturday morning we woke up to Ethan excited about all the snow that was dumped on us, so I knew at that point, I would need to shovel the driveway/sidewalk and he would want to go out with me.....sure enough, it worked out just like that.  I was hesitant at first, b/c he woke up screaming and had a slight bark going on, but once we got meds in him he was fine and I knew the fresh air would do him some good.  So, we both got our warm clothes on, after breakfast, and headed outside!  He loved it and played his little heart out....he made snow angels, went sled riding, made snowballs, and helped me shovel!  Unfortunately, Colin has some upper respiratory stuff going on and I didn't want him outside to get worse, b/c he's finally turning the page and I didn't want to back track....so, him and Daddy stayed in and watched Tangled!!!

After our fun, the boys got ready and headed up to spend the night with Grandma & Grandpa Shroyer to have some fun with their cousins, so that Brenton and I could have a date night for his birthday w/ our friends.  I thought for sure we'd have to pick Colin up at least, but as I sit here typing this, they are still in Sugarcreek having a ball.  Colin did great and even ate a good supper, Grandma made "sgetti" and he absolutely loved it....REALLY?  He doesn't eat it here, but I figured out why and next time will make sauce without "meat" in it like Daddy & Ethan like =)

loves "sgetti" now =)

 

 

So, as we are waiting patiently for our little boogers to get home, Brenton and I are enjoying our morning with warm coffee and our little princess!  Soon, we'll be watching the 2nd service of church, b/c we are too lazy this am to get ready and we love having the option of an "online service".....Anyway, as we are waiting, Katee obviously had to go outside and I hate watching her hobble or even sit, b/c her paws hurt so bad while she does her business, due to the snow, so I pulled out her snow boots and let me just say, she was able to do everything she needed to do w/o hobbling and she even was being a little nib nose, while another puppy was outside being walked =)

On another note, I love that our boys enjoy ALL their cousins so much and love that they enjoy going to spend time with them.  As I mentioned, last night they spent the night w/ Brenton's parents and they got time with the Erb kids and I guess had a ball.  I got this picture a few minutes ago, and Colin sure had fun and was given kisses =)

 

love my Chloe

While Colin and Grandpa stayed home, Ethan and Grandma headed off to church.....that boy, absolutely loves church and learning and enjoys going so much!  He is so funny, and is such a great little boy =)
