Randomness...

This post is kind of just random pictures put together, but oh well right? The picture below I took on one of our first days back from Christmas vacation...it was really cold and so everything was kind of iced over one morning. When the sun came out, everything just glistened and was actually, well, beautiful (even though I hate to admit it because it was so dang cold!) The picture just doesn't do it justice, but I had to include it to remind myself that there really are good and beautiful things about every season!
These next few pictures are of our trip to the Niagara Falls Aquarium. We went there before David had to go back to school. Maia loved looking at all of the fish. It was really fun to take her.

Above is "Julie" the sea lion doing an awesome flip. David was so proud that he caught it at the right moment...especially with our camera! The pictures below are just fun outside pictures--after our amazing days of 66 and 67 degree weather, it cooled off a bit, but one of the days it was still in the 40's and with NO WIND...so those are perfect days to bundle up a little and get outside. We went for a long walk and the played out on the porch. And if you read one of my last posts, you know what happened when it was time to go inside for a nap...yes, lots of big tears and tantrums. I took a picture of her crying her head off, but I couldn't bring myself to post it, I thought it would just be too mean!
Above are Maia and Dada coloring with crayons. Maia is really starting to like drawing on paper now. We just have to supervise her with the big crayons because after a while, they can look pretty tasty and big chunks of them start to go missing, if you know what I mean!

Oh and one more thing...thanks to those who gave me advice on how to rearrange my pictures. It worked wonders! No frustration at all--Hooray!!
