The Gingerbread Man

For Christmas we gave Preston "The Gingerbread Man" book and it has become one of his favorites--one that we read pretty much every day. Well I was a little upset when I read this version and the fox eats the gingerbread man at the end, instead of the happy versions where the gingerbread man gets away and lives with the nice old woman and old man. So I keep telling Preston that the gingerbread man is only a cookie (more for my own sake than for his). Anyway, we decided to make our own cookie man today----how did I do?

Preston loved the gingerbread man. He watched me make the whole thing and he even watched it bake.
We even SNAPPED our gingerbread man like the fox does.
Had to throw in this shot of Sam.

Cute boys

Sam is 4 1/2 months old and 18 POUNDS!!! So much to love in this chubby little guy. Preston, on the other hand, weighs in at a very light 25 pounds.

Preston now copies everything we do--seeing a 2-yr old 

walking with his hands in his pockets is very picture-worthy,

LOVE THESE BOYS!!!

Alaska again!

Well we're here in Juneau again and finding fun things to do in our BEAUTIFUL weather (which we never knew Juneau could have).

Daddy's little copilot.

Love this walkway.

Outer Point. We saw several killer whales over here yesterday.
Greg was lucky enough to drive the 40 hours to Skagway with my brother Dan.

Preston's Birthday

We had fun on Preston's birthday. Preston especially loved his "birthday CAKE!" (emphasis on the cake)
