Nothing warms a boy up like Oreo cookies and a little wrestling with Daddy. Each time I asked Nate to smile, he also closed his eyes, so the pictures are either open-eyes, no smile or closed-eyes, mischievous smile. That's my guy!

Snow Day!
So, our little family moved to Dallas, Texas in large part to escape snowy weather. Of course it makes perfect sense for Dallas to receive record snowfall our first winter here. Murphy's Law. Jake took a snow day from work and we had a blast watching Nate enjoy the snow. Nate remembered snow from when we got it at Christmas, and immediately set to work throwing snowballs at our fence. He kept at it for almost an hour, until his mama's tail feathers were frozen and I made him go inside. He threw an amazing temper tantrum befitting his two-year-old self. Next winter we'll ship him off to his grandparents and he can have snow all winter long!

I love my boys!!
Here's a few pictures I've taken of Nathan and his daddy over the last month. It's easy to see why I love my boys! Nate's a clone of Jake in looks and temperament (although Nate is more stubborn than Jake), and they both make me so happy.
Nate is becoming super-independent. He gave up his pacifiers for good on Friday, and has been sleeping well. I'm continually amazed at how adaptable my little guy is. Nate & I went to Toys-R-Us and let him choose a Woody & a Buzz (from Toy Story). He gave the clerk a bag with his pacifiers, and the clerk gave him his toys. We were expecting a difficult bedtime, but Nate just snuggled his Woody, and went to sleep just fine. Naptimes are another story though . . .
Here's a picture Little Mr. Independent took of himself.
Finally, Nate's gotten more adventurous with putting things on his head. He used to never wear a hat, and now it's hard to get him out of them. He wears his baseball cap in the tub, his fireman hat to brush his teeth, and loves playing with a toolkit complete with hard hat.
I couldn't resist the comparison with Papa in this one. Sorry Dad, it's just too funny. Fearless Fly rides again!
