february fun

brothers, keeping busy

made my friend maria's sunday sauce for the superbowl

we are not an american football family (we're more interested in the other football - soccer!), but that didn't stop us from feeling some excitement over the Super Bowl.  after a fun afternoon playing in the snow (while i worked on my sunday sauce), i bathed the boys & got them in their pi's in time for the game.  we spent the evening feeling totally american : )

kaanie didn't catch much of the game

maxin' and relaxin'

love those feet

good morning!

…the many faces of kaan

king of the hill!  playing in our neighbor's yard.

i love their parallel play

emre is loving gymnastics - and has really improved!

this kid keeps me laughing, all the time

so serious about his trains

somebody has started rolling his way around the house

lazing about on a snowy winter day - these are the days i love best with my boys

morning sunshine!

loving his paddington from auntie sawah

me & my boys

m&m cookies for emre - homemade cookies are a weekly thing around here, now that baking supplies are abundantly available

my sweet emre

such a good napper

watching the big boys play

brudders

my tito

one of our many sunday afternoon adventures

kid loves snow...

…and tiny shopping carts

a rousing game of 'who's under the blanket?' at school

just another afternoon nap in the car after falling asleep on the way home from school

working on his roll… i try to entice him by putting toys just out reach

ben & his boys
