We've got Cabin Fervor and it's driving us incane

Poor Jon woke up this morning with a horrible temp and did not feel very good so we just stayed on the couch and he was in and out the whole day so we didnt get the pic of all the snow but we will try to have it by Wen.
Jon and Mommy both have cabin fervor sooooo bad that we are scraping the bottom of the barrel for things to do. But he does love to climb into, on to anything he can.

These are the crazy ice that are hanging in front of Jon's room. They are soooooo big the look like they could kill someone

Fun Day

Jon and I went out side to go sleding which was really fun, but I think he was a little tried out after we were done . (I just might have to do that everyday)

Jon colored a pic for daddy and we put it on the frigid but daddy wants to take it to work and Jon deiced that was ok to do

Mommy's little helper

I have such a great helper at home. Jon wants to do everything that I am doing now so when I'm doing the dishes he wants to help so I pulled a chair up to the sink and gave him a spoon , so while I washed he got to splash and help. He also helps by emptying the dishwasher for me. Jon will hand me the silverware one at a time until they are all done and now he has just started to try to hand me the plates but I think they are still a little hevey yet
Now if I can only get him to be this excited about helping when he's a teenager

More play groups

Jon and I are now going to two play groups one on Monday morning and one on Wen. nights. I have been soooo surprised on how well he has been doing with the other kids . On Monday he just up and left me to go crawl through the tunnels and then he played with one of the high school helpers for a bit too which just a month ago would had never happened , My little man is growing up and getting so big. We did blanket races on Wen. but sorry no pics he would go on the blanket all by him self but I had to be close by he wasn't quite sure of it . We are having a great time
he loved the tunnels at play group
poor Jon was sooo tired he fell asleep on the couch, but it was just the cutest thing ever
