La Conner

Today is our 6th Wedding Anniversary! We went up north and explored the little city of La Conner.

Playdough

Cousin Tanner gave Levi a playdough kit for Christmas. His Auntie Katie sent us a great recipe for the playdough... the only thing is that I forgot to add food coloring!

Our Little Fireman

Under the Weather

The Arneson family has been sick for the past few weeks... can you tell? This picture shows what our kitchen counter has looked like all month. Vitamins, cough syrup, decongestants, pain killers, thermometers, herbal remedies, nose spray, and anything else you could think of!  What a way to start the new year! First Levi had a nasty flu... then Eric and I came down with colds... mine turned into a sinus infection and Eric's is still lingering. Hopefully we'll be on the mend soon!

Farmer Levi

Levi loves his Little People Farm! The five horses are his favorite... he walks around the house with them all the time.

"Go Niners!"

Levi absolutely LOVES football! If he's in the other room and he hears someone turn football on the TV, he goes running in super excited to watch. Here's a glimpse at our little football fan... it's the first kickoff of the big San Francisco 49er game.  "Go Niners!"

Bowl Full of Snow

It's been snowing all week here! Since Levi has the flu the past few days he can't go out to play in it. My Grandma (a very wise woman) suggested that we bring the snow in to Levi.

Poor Baby...still sick.

Sick Baby

Our Little Levi has a nasty bug... last night he had a temperature of 104.3 and could barely hold his head up! Poor Baby! This morning we're snowed in and cuddling on the couch...

First Snow of the Year

Found the Faucet

Usually we keep the bathroom door shut so our mischievous little boy doesn't get into the toilet. But while we've been potty training we've kept it open... we let him run around naked and he runs into the bathroom when he thinks he needs to sit on his potty seat. This morning we heard the water going on and off. Sure enough, he had climbed up onto the toilet and was turning on the faucet! I guess playing on the toilet is a lot better than playing in it!

Grandpa's Chair

Today is my Grandpa's birthday! For his birthday we gave him this video... it show's the journey of his little chair. My Great Grandmother had this chair when she was a baby and then my grandfather used it when he was a child. Now it has been passed down to the youngest generation. Eric and I fixed it up for Levi to use. He loves to carry it around and sit on it... sometimes even stand on it!

Happy Birthday, Grandpa!

Spaghetti Face

Ummm... I think he needs a bath.

Happy Birthday, Collin!

Today we celebrated Baby Collin's First Birthday!

Piano Boy

Still loves to play the piano...

Saggy Diaper

I guess it's the "cool" thing to do...

New Trampoline!

Levi got a new trampoline for Christmas!! Thank you, Aunt Carina and Uncle Sam!

When we came home from Gymboree, we opened the garage door and SURPRISE! Daddy cleaned out the garage and set up the trampoline!  Levi LOVES it!

Stacking Cans

While Levi was helping me clean out the pantry in the garage, he discovered a pile of cans that I put in the hallway... he spent a long time stacking them up and knocking them down. I think it's time to make him some blocks!

Gymboree Fun

A fun day at Gymboree with Jody...
