Sweet, sweet sleep

Playing hard results in sleeping hard.Sometimes in your ravioli.

Sometimes squeezed into a twin size bed by morning.

Mr. Mom for the Morning

No school and no jobs had us all home for the morning yesterday. True to their crazy nature, the kids were up and rolling by 7:15 (compared dragging them out of bed for school at 7:45). But Daddy had promised beignets, or as they lovingly refer to them as daddy doughnuts. They are quite delicious. Jeff found the recipe on cooks.com and they are creamy on the inside, crunchy on the out and the kids douse these rich little morsels in sweet powdered whiteness. Most of Jeff's favorite recipes revolve around his fryer. :) This pic is actually not fake staged excitement.

MMMMMMMM. Who will eat the most today?

I love that I caught this look. I totally get this one all the time if I question his authority on something. Which I wasn't at this point, I give him all the credit for these delicacies. So I don't know why I got the look.

Let the dances of joy begin...

With the snow gone, and the temperatures semi nice, Annika coerced Jeff and Tanner outside for catch and batting practice.

She hit one over the house. Tanner picked up the bat and wanted to go lefty yesterday which pleased Jeff immensely. And excited Daddy even more when he got a hold of it.

Snow 2011

They have had a great time digging tunnels, throwing snowballs at cars (Phoebe's idea), and digging.
Yeah, I had something much more creative originally, but it seems to have disappeared from my brain.
