what we've been up to

Life is always crazy around the Shepherd household. It has been nice and warm so we have spent a lot of time outside. Owen is becoming quite a little boy and running around. He loves to "walk" and look for letters all over town.



Lewis has been perfecting his tricycle riding. He is doing great! He can even turn around 180 degrees if he wants. Sometimes Owen has to give him a push if he slows down and isn't keeping up. He has had one accident where he scraped his elbow, but he mostly laughed about it. He really loves his tricycle!

Owen, on the other hand, has gotten into "sand." We have some moonsand that the kids got for Christmas. It's an amusement park. They have both loved playing with it now that they can make a mess outside. It is a mess, but on the back porch it is a blast for them. He likes running it through his fingers saying "sand" over and over.

Both boys have loved having their Aunt Beth around. She spends a lot of time with Lewis every week, but Owen also loves it whenever he sees her. His new favorite activity is having her draw things on our Magnadoodle and then saying what it is. Here is one of the first times they did this. You can tell how excited he is.



Poor Beth basically got herself into it, but Owen pushes her all over the house and drags the magnadoodle to her to get her to play this game. We are happy they have a fun activity to do together!
