Can you say BRRRRRRR?

We saw this almost every morning for a week. Today it warmed up to -20 (heat wave) but the wind is blowing so it feels almost colder than it did when it was -50. Gotta love AK. Oh but the good news is we have over 7 hours of daylight now :)

Independence Days

Wyatt has decided that he can feed himself.....

He also wants to drink whatever your drinking and from a real cup. Sippy cups are for babies.

He also enjoys baking, he can get all the ingredients out of the cabinets without any help.
Good thing he is still cute :)

Cabin Fever

The dark and the cold start getting to us about this time of year and in Delta you have to make your own fun, this is what we resorted to.


Greg and Rachelle are both nurses, so Jeff and I figured we didn't have a chance but it turns out that Jeff has a very steady hand and Greg and Rachelle should go back to school or at least lay off the anesthesia before operating :) Don't hesitate to call Jeff if you ever need your bread basket removed.

We would also like to thank Kurt and Corrine for providing us with this diversion. The game and the wine glasses were wedding gifts- they complimented each other well.

Old But Exciting News

So this is old news by now, most of the news on my blog is old by the time I get around to posting it. But anyway...Max and Mette had a baby!!! Kieran was born on December 31st. We got to see him when he was a couple weeks old- very cute and little!


The happy family
Auntie Rachel
Jeff got to try out his old papa hold on the new baby.

Check out more pictures of the baby and their new house on Max and Mette's blog.
