Early 2013 photos

2013_01_02_03, a set on Flickr.

We have added some photos to our Flickr site. They're pretty random and span the last couple of months. Apparently we have not been taking enough photos so far this year.

Early March 2013 random video clips

This video shows some random happenings over the past week or so - a Saturday afternoon visit to the Butler home, a trip to Xtreme Bounce Zone to celebrate the birthdays of a couple of Arthur's classmates, a Sunday visit to Tekonsha, and back home where Jessie is continuing to work on her walking abilities.  We hope you enjoy it.  Until next time....

Sunday in Tekonsha for Grammi & Bev birthdays

We were in Tekonsha yesterday to celebrate both Grammi Carolyn's and Aunt Bev's birthdays.  The video you see here is long, so be prepared.  What you will see is a typical Sunday visit to Tekonsha - lots of people, talk, noise, chaos....at least from Arthur, Mark and Jessie.  By the way, Mark & Jessie are now a couple of weeks past their original due date of February 4.  Neither of them is walking, but they seem close.  And neither of them is sleeping through the night yet.  Yikes!  Cathy is getting more and more tired.  Find our full blog at toddsherwood.blogspot.com.  Until next time...

Another bday party for Arthur, this time in Tekonsha

Sorry for the poor video quality - I really need to get a new phone that takes better video.

Arthur's 4th birthday & a trip to Briarwood

The big news is that Arthur has had his 4th birthday!  Hard to believe.  For his birthday, we got a room at Weber's Inn and had his friends Sammy and Adin join us for swimming, pizza poolside, and birthday cake in our room.  It was lots of fun and Arthur got to spend a lot of time in the swimming pool which he really liked.  He doesn't really swim of course, he mostly climbs out of the pool, jumps on daddy in the pool, then climbs back out and does this over and over again.  And check out his bday cake - yes, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are still a thing (having been brought back and modernized) and Arthur loves them right now.  The cake was a big hit.


This next video is actually a few weeks old now, and it shows Mark holding a toy doctor's/dentist's mirror that he has become oddly attached to.  Not much happens here.


This last video was just taken yesterday, the 19th.  It shows Mark and Jessie playing in the turtle play zone at Briarwood Mall.  Arthur was there too, of course.  Mark really took to the place and threw himself into the action.  Jessie was considerably more cautious and didn't move around much.  She watched Mark a lot almost as if she was thinking to herself "I can't believe he crawled way over there, isn't he scared."  This video was shot with my cell phone so the quality is not so great.

Remember that all our videos are also on Youtube under the name tlsherwood.

Christmas, and more pics from December 2012

2012_12, a set on Flickr.

We have uploaded many new pics for the month of December, including Christmas photos and more from our trip to Grand Rapids a month ago. Happy New Year to everyone that checks-in to our family blog from time to time - we wish everyone well. Let's hope for an even better 2013.

December pics so far....

2012_12, a set on Flickr.

Here's our December pics so far...pre Christmas. You will see some pics from Bonnie & John's visit, including John's bday party, along with our visit to the Gerald Ford Museum in Grand Rapids. You will also see the E-man holding the M&J at Holly's recent Xmas party. More pics post-Christmas, I am sure....

Mark & Jessie have had their 1st birthday!

Is it possible that Mark & Jessie are already 1 year old?  It is indeed.  It seems like only yesterday that we were visiting them every day in the NICU at Motts Children's Hospital.  How time flies.  We celebrated bday #1 with their Grammi Bonnie and Grampi John.  They shared a cupcake, well the frosting anyway.  Arthur hammed it up and, as you will see, the party was really hopping.  Enjoy...
