Kenton and Tiernan's "Fast" days

I'm starting this blog as a way of keeping track of and sharing with others the kids' days, cute and funny and maybe sometimes frustrating moments. The time goes by so fast, I'd like to have a way of coming back to remember those moments!

Let's see, today started out and Kenton and Jon were supposed to go swimming but since we all slept in too late, that didn't happen. Kenton didn't seem to notice as he was all too happy to play in the tub later anyways. So he spent the morning playing with his toys nicely while Tiernan practiced his rolling over on his playmat.

Tiernan's started rice cereal recently since he has been so hungry even after having just eaten. He's been doing pretty good with it, swallowing most of what goes in his mouth and seems to have no troubles with it.

Kenton then spent the afternoon chasing Morris around and has now picked up a new saying "Kitty a- bite!", which probably comes from me repeating endlessly "Kenton, Morris doesn't want to play, he will bite you!". Unfortunately Morris doesn't seem to have the brains or maybe just the will to move to a safer location where Kenton can't get to him so he has taken a few swipes at Kenton. Most of the time this results in Kenton getting scared, coming to me and crying for a bit and then going back to chasing the cat. He's gotten scratched a few times, and one close call but nothing serious... yet. I sure hope one of them smartens up soon. I think if it was warm enough for Morris to be outside at all it wouldn't be so bad, but they've both got cabin fever and are driving each other nuts.

Then while Jon was outside shovelling snow, I got Kenton dressed to go out and sent him out the backyard with Jon to get outside for a bit. About five minutes later they came in cause he wouldn't keep his mittens on and it was too cold for him to be without. Then everyone decided it was better inside and came in for some hot chocolate, cookies and video games!

Later we started to decorate a store bought gingerbread Santa Sleigh kit, but got interrupted by Tiernan waking up. Kenton's help in the decorating consisted of making sure the candies were safe to eat!
