Family

Heartfelt updates about family milestones and everyday moments. From taking Mazie to college and annual visits to the Renaissance Festival to Swedish‑pancake breakfasts and VR outings with the kids, this category celebrates togetherness.

    Tyler Learning to Sit in a Chair

    Tyler is still very much constantly on the move. He has started to enjoy the novelty of sitting in the kids rocking chair that my Mom got Mazie a long time ago. It lasts for about five seconds at most.

    Mazie's 2nd Soccer Season

    Mazie is playing soccer again this year with the Cyclones in the Fuller Soccer Club. The whole team has improved a ton and there is some improvement to ball handling this year. Mazie is having a great time too.

    Twins Fan Tyler

    Tyler did his best to try and help our last place team. Doesn’t seem to have had much effect yet.

    Mazie In Tree

    Mazie’s kindergarten class had a picnic at the Rose Garden by Lake Harriet. She decided to do a little tree climbing while we were there.

    Tyler Walking

    Tyler is an exceptional crawler. He passed his 1 year birthday without feeling the need to work on walking all that much. Why walk when you can crawl super fast! In the past few weeks he has worked on finding his balance and taking steps. He can now walk a good dozen or more steps without falling! He is also now sometimes choosing to walk instead of crawl. I have a feeling he’ll be running around the house in no time.

    Heart Shaped Pancakes

    Valentines Day dinner. This was Mazie’s special request. Of course she was so full of chocolate she hardly ate any.

    Happy Valentines Day 2011

    Mazie made me this awesome and sweet Valentine. Happy Valentines to everyone!

    Sunday Afternoon Sledding

    We all got bundled up this afternoon, grabbed the Mountain Boy sleds and headed over to the sledding hill. Even Tyler got into the action taking a couple of runs on the toboggan with the family.

    Here is a quick video from the afternoon.

    TODO: Add video.

    We had a great time!

    Family Websites Updated

    We took a little time this weekend and updated everyone else’s websites this weekend.

    Tyler now has a landing page up on his website. No blog or anything for him, just a simple page with some links. Mazie switched to a new theme and I posted a bunch of her pictures from the last few weeks. Last but not least Tammy also put a new theme on Smaller Than a Redwood.

    Everyone looks clean, fresh and nicely updated!
