Tennis

Here are two pictures of Phineas at tennis lessons.  They're all still learning the basics and it's pretty entertaining to watch.  He has fun!

Cookies

Here's Phineas, "helping" Mom make cookies.  Juno is trying to "help," too.

Putting the furniture together

The day after we got home, we put together Phineas's new storage system.  He had fun turning the allen wrench and then, when the whole thing was built, he was climbing all over it!

Ikea trip

After Christmas, Phineas' Lego collection exploded and it was time to find some system to organize it all.  So, with a few other things on our shopping list, we hopped in the car and went to Ikea.  Phineas liked following the maze of the store, looking for arrows to show us where to go.  He was also helpful in deciding exactly which storage system to pick.  Here are some pictures of Phineas checking it out!

Uncle James and Aunt Trisha's wedding

Aunt Trisha and Uncle James tied the knot last weekend (congratulations!).  Phineas was lucky enough to be part of the wedding.  Here are some pictures of him and his cousins Henry and Ben posing for pictures with the photographer at the post-wedding dinner.  They had a lot of fun together!

Sledding in Camden

Today we went sledding, and Phineas had fun!  Here is a video of his run with dad.

Merry Christmas!

We had a nice Christmas morning here in Rockland.  Phineas opened his stocking and then we all opened presents.  Phineas was very excited by some of the toys in his stocking and elated to get the Lego Town Square set, which he started building as soon as we let him.  Then we went down to the trap tree for a picture with everyone who was here.

Phineas and the Big Snow

Almost two feet of snow fell here in less than a week.  Phineas loved it and played outside in it all day one Saturday.  He dug out a snow house in a big snowbank, and slid down some of the snow piles the loaders made at a nearby parking lot.

Baking Christmas cookies

Phineas and Mom baked some sugar cookies on Sunday.  And, of course, Juno didn't want to miss out on the fun!
