More happy birthdays

Leif's birthday in late February began a parade of family birthdays that have helped buoy our spirits through a slushy, chilly March. First, Cousin Rachel (down in South Carolina) turned 2 in early March, followed by Grandpaw G., who turned an undisclosed number of years older than 2. Next it was Auntie Mirja's turn, followed by Aaron. With Grandpa B.'s early April birthday yet to come, the celebrating is not over yet! (Which is good, because the snow is not over yet, either, apparently.) Below are a few photos from Grandpaw and Aaron's birthday celebrations.

Leif sees the light

Leif isn't trying to say "light" yet, but he does think lights are pretty neat and loves pointing at them. On this particular day, the dining room light merited a rare "double-point."
