Snow, Snow, and More Snow!

So we have been having tons and tons of snow. We seem to get a big snowfall every Tuesday or Wednesday (which means mutual has been canceled often) which means I have fallen behind in my updates on our snow pile heights. the following pictures were taken last week on Thursday, Jan 27.


Our upstairs neighbor, mike, helps us shovel every week. Fun bonding moments.

Tyson helping dad.


Here are pictures from our most recent storm. I also found a link to how much snow we have been getting on our friend Ellen's blog. enjoy!

Jamie decided he wanted to start making a snow tunnel. I made him stop early because it was raining, but I'm sure we will continue it soon.


After it rained it got really cold again and everything froze. Awesome.


This morning it snowed again but I don't have pictures of it. Maybe later. :) Happy February!

Happy New Years!

Happy New Year!

It was a fun time at the LaPierre Household. Tyson and Emmett met for the first time. Yeah for cousins. There is a picture floating around of them holding hands, but Katy and Micah have it (Will you email it to me? Thanks).






Tyson really wanted to drink the Rootbeer. Jamie probably would have let him do it, if I wasn't around.
So compared to Emmett, Tyson's got a budda belly, and lets face it hes just got more fat everywhere. I say its from his workouts with dad, so maybe I should call it muscle. :)


Like I was saying, lots of muscle!





Cris was able to put Tyson to sleep very easily. He picked up on the secrets! Way to go Uncle Cris.


Christmas in California

These are way late I do realize, but oh well. Merry Christmas!

This was Jamie playing with Tyson. He set up a Santa's sleigh with speaker cables and an inflatable Geico gecko. Thanks to Uncle Peter for the Santa suit, it was awesome.


Uncle Peter and Tyson. We haven't decided if we are going to call him Uncle Crazy Pants or not yet.

This is us playing with the block set that Tyson got for Christmas. Yeah for building things.

This is a present hand band that my mother made. Why? I have not idea, but it made us laugh.



Sleeping pictures.

When Dad Comes Home!!

Weekends are wonderful things! Especially for Tyson because he gets to play with dad, and be dressed by dad. We have been having a difficulty with socks that stay on (why aren't all baby pants equipped with feet?), so Jamie's alternative....Dads socks work best! Its true. :)


Playing guitar with dad. Tyson loves his music. In fact he demands that we sing him to sleep every time he takes a nap.


Don't you all wish you were in Boston so you could play with us too!

Snow Day

So we had an awesome snow storm yesterday! We had a severe winter storm warning and ended up getting over a foot of snow. Jamie's school was canceled so instead of going to school he spent the day eating a big breakfast with me, studying, or spending hours shoveling the snow off the driveway, twice! Our neighbor bob (yes, its cool that we have a neighbor named bob) remarked at how good of a job Jamie did. When the snow plow goes down our street they end up plowing 2 feet of heavy snow into our driveway, which makes lots of work for Jamie. I wish that I could have helped but logistics (i.e. Tyson can't be out that long in the cold so I have to watch him inside) dictated that I leave the job to Jamie. Here are some pictures of the snow but they don't do it just. Funny how that always seems to be the case.


We did bring Tyson out for a little bit. He even made a snow angel (one of Jamie's goals for him since before he was born, I'm pretty sure).


Anyways, its cold but beautiful here. Happy New Year! Oh and I'll be posting Christmas Pictures soon, still waiting for some photos from Aunt Laree and Aunt Katy & Uncle Micah!
