Since we’re in a bit of catch-up mode I think I’ll show off a group shot and leave it at that for now.
With TJ being a senior now one has to take advantage of these shots when one can get them.

Cuddled In
Can’t return to blogging a bit without also highlighting some sweetly cuddled little girls.
Thunderer was sick on this one, but asleep you can’t tell that. She’s cozy and sleeping whatever it was at the time off, ready to bounce back.
Meanwhile here I think she decided to sneak into the parental bed while I was away grocery shopping.
And then Newbie always appreciates it when a cat comes calling.

Snowtime
Winter just wrapped up, or has nearly, but it wasn’t as bad as we expected. Quite a bit of snow, but nothing scary awful like a winter vortex or anything.
That meant they were actually able to play outside in the snow some this year!

Painting
Painting, led by Little Miss, has been something Newbie has picked up too at this point. Practice makes… purrrfect but her imagination is already taking her places quite nicely.
I look forward to highlighting some more Little Miss projects once they’re ready too.

Birthdays
With the blog in sort of catch up mode perhaps we’ll highlight some pictures from their birthdays without dedicating a post per kid.
That, and I don’t think Redflare grabbed pictures from every birthday we’ve missed on the blog since we last posted something. :p
There has been some gift giving along the way though, like a painting made by Little Miss for TJ:
School Days
Can’t write about the start of school without highlighting the whole group in a picture!

Third Grade
Third grader Newbie steps out.
She still looks super young in this picture. Last trimester conferences came recently and while her teacher didn’t outright say she’s one of his favorites, the praise he heaped on both her intelligence and demeanor showed she’s probably one of his favorites.

Santa Babies
Not a lot of great pictures over the last few months sadly. I guess that’s what happens when we’re so busy.
Redflare took the kids out to a ‘dinner with Santa’ event at the local fire station. They loved it.
The food wasn’t overly impressive in Newbie’s eyes, and Thunderer opted to just have a cookie. :p
Food wasn’t the main reason to go though, so it works.

Halloween
We’re getting there! Halloween pictures are a go!
If you can’t tell, Superman is Thanos, I’m Gandalf, TJ is Spiderman, Newbie is a sloth, Little Miss is a dark fairy/angel, and Thunderer is a “puppy” (Scooby Doo was the only way we could pull that one off.)
TJ went and coordinated costumes with his girlfriend too. She went as Silk.

Further Play
Sometimes the pictures speak for themselves and sharing cute moments of the kids at play is really all that’s needed. I think this is one of those times.
