First week of 2010

What have we been doing this first week of 2010? The beginning of it left us snowed in for the holiday weekend - we went out to lunch on New Years Day and shopping at Target just to get out of the house because we knew we would be snowed in the rest of the weekend and we were!
Alex is trying out his new shovel he got for Christmas.

Riding on his sled - he likes it much more than last year! He even tried out the snow tubes the girls next door had and LOVED IT!!! He so wants to be a big kid like them!

Marching through the snow in our front yard.
Peaking around the corner of the garage.

And then on Monday we went back to work and daycare and we celebrated Alex's 2nd birthday with his school friends - they all loved the car cupcakes Alex and I made! It was funny watching each kid eat them in their own way - some dove right in - and some licked all the frosting off and then at the cupcake and some just slowly licked all the frosting off. :) Alex dove right in and devoured the whole thing!
