I wanna play with the big boys...





So Mateo has reached that fun age where he wants more than anything to be like the big boys...when we were home in North Idaho, we had a chance to get together with one of Sarah's friends Jenny (Pugh) Abell and her son Riley...who is just 17 months (about 4 months older but probably 3-5 pounds lighter than Mateo). They played so well together...and Jenny and Sarah were able to have flashbacks to toys from our childhood...anyone remember the Fisher Price Farm that amazingly still makes the animal noises? This one is made out of cardboard/pressboard...none of that fancy schmancy plastic that they make toys out of now...Mateo is lucky that Tia Rachel let us have the newer version of the farm for our house...he's big into the Fisher Price animal set now.

Crazy weather here today...we were supposed to go to the beach to see one of Sarah's work friends, who is Aunt Mimi to Mateo, but the snow has come...and because we live on a very steep hill, we decided it would be best to stay put. MamaNona reports that this must be the snow that is not falling in Connecticut. We assured her that God just wanted her to miss Connecticut a bit less.

Hugs from snowy Oregon, Sarah & boys
