It's 80 degrees out, Carter and Lars are in DC for the weekend and Isaac is sleeping, so I finally have time to work on adding some photos!!
It has been a nice uneventful end to our winter here. We didn't travel for almost 3 months, and have been enjoying our time on Johnnie Brook Road. Lars quit his job in February and started up with Red House Builders (www.redhousebuilding.com) a great new job for him. Doing the same kind of carpentry, but a very organized company. Carter and Isaac are growing like weeds. It's amazing how much Carter is starting to become a little boy (yet how often he still acts like a toddler!)
Here's some photos, in no particular order:
Isaac posing in the early morning

Carter and Isaac planting tomatoes
Carter kneading bread with his fists
Opa and Oma came to visit!
"I love bagels and cream cheese!" (At least that's what Isaac would say if he could talk, right now the best we get out of him is "at" for cat, "cah" for car, "bah" for ball - starting to wonder if he is going to have a Boston accent!)
Carter loved watching the Olympics, after seeing Shaun White in the halfpipe, he immediately said he could do better and went outside and made up his version of snowboarding.
Can Carter be a teenager already? Look at that glare.... enough to silence anyone.
Not sure if he is choking or hugging him, perhaps a little of both.
Mama, enough with the pictures already, can't I eat my yogurt in peace?
I'm pretty sure that's not a squeal of joy....
We had a winter time reunion of some of the next generation of Brattleboro babes: Avah, Maude, Adelaide and Isaac.
Peek-a-boo!
Silas doing a sweet jump!

Here'a a recent Carter quote to leave you with: we were reorganizing the living room and Lars asked Carter if he'd like to put the foam letters down on the floor of his bedroom. Carter responded "yeah, that would be a good idea" pause "But we have to make sure we leave enough hard floor so I can breakdance"
