    Hunting….

    Trying to find the elusive, rarely spotted, endangered ‘nice picture where both boys are looking at me and dare I ask- smiling!’

    Still haven’t found it ?‍♀️

    Maybe I’ll have better luck in 2019! ??

  • Christmas 2018!

    Christmas 2018!

    The mayhem and magic of Christmas! Nothing quite like it!

    Setting out cookies for Santa and carrots for Rudolph!

    So blessed to spend Christmas with Ben and Phoebe who brought lots of laughs and a little French flare to this Christmas!

    The joy and excitement of Christmas morning! Andrew wanted a Rocky truck (from Paw Patrol) and a talking Woody (from Toy Story). And Santa delivered! Teddy didn’t have strong requests but received a toy vacuum since he always follows Mommy around while she’s cleaning. He loved his vacuum so much he refused to take his hands off of it all morning…which made difficult for future present opening. There was also a bounce house, big building blocks, books, toys and more toys! Christmas through the eyes of a child is truly something special!

    Special shoutout to Phoebe for taking this wonderful pictures that captured it all so beautifully! 

    And the adults got in on the Christmas fun too!

    Capped off Christmas with more food and friends; a perfect holiday! Merry Christmas from our family to yours!

  • Countdown to Christmas

    Countdown to Christmas

    Making buckeyes with Daddy (because some little boys already ate all the cookies we made for Santa!)

    And checking out Zoo Lights at Turtle Back Zoo complete with Frosty and train ride!

    Santa comes tomorrow night!

  • What’s More Exciting than Presents?!

    The boxes they come in of course!

  • Santa Firetruck

    Santa Firetruck

    An annual Christmas tradition! As a fundraiser our local fire station delivers Christmas presents (that parents drop off the week before).

    What’s not to love?!? Santa, fire trucks and presents!

  • Palmer School Pageant

    Palmer School Pageant

    The annual Palmer School Christmas pageant! I’m proud to say that neither boy cried (which meant I didn’t have to go on stage) AND they were some of the cutest singers up there! 

    Teddy sang ‘Twinkle Twinkle Little Star’ and ‘Jingle Bells’ 

    Andrew’s class sang the ‘Dreidel’ and ‘Santa Hurry Up.’ They also did the most adorable reenactment of the ‘Night Before Christmas.’ Andrew played the all important part of Prancer. 

  • Cookies & Gingerbread!

    Cookies & Gingerbread!

    With Papa, Coco and Aunt Kiki in town for the birthday party, we seized the opportunity to make some Sandtart cookies; a Kleinfelter family tradition! 

    Gingerbread house making with Coco! 
  • Fire Trucks & Four

    Fire Trucks & Four

    We officially celebrated four with a belated joint birthday party for Andrew and Austin at the fire station last weekend! The kids learned all about fire trucks and their gear from the firemen, they got to spray the hose and the grand finale; a ride in the fire truck! My boys were in their glory! 

    Happy 4th birthday Andrew!
