Cy's Personalities

Our little Cy guy is filled with personality. Almost every day he wakes up and transforms into someone. We have to treat him with complete respect because if we laugh he is mortified and attacks us.

Cy wanted to dress like a clown and walk around the neighborhood making people laugh

The Hulk (or Vulk, as Cy says it). Cy thinks if he makes himself cross eyed, it looks tougher.

Bumble Bee

Batman

"Sunday school teacher"

"Powerful mohawk boy"

"Black Beard"

"Jezebel" (we had to make paper nails, give him a glass of water to overindulge in, and top it off with a crown and my heels)

"Captain Moroni"

"Dragon Warrior" post bath

"Teenager"

Cy took this by himself

"sweet boy"

This month has been a bit of a daze for me. I had sinus surgery (due to a collapsed nasal passage) 4 days after Christmas and spent the first two weeks recovering, and the last couple catching up on everything that was neglected. I'm glad things have been busy, because I officially can't stand winter. Yes the snow is fluffy and the air is dry in Utah compared to the wet icy bone chilling NY winters, but anytime the temperature is under 45 we are on lock down and indoors...not fun for a Mom and kids who live outside usually. As we wait for Spring, we are trying to pack our weekends with a little fun.

A Joyful NOISE

This year we were "blessed" enough to have a home video that is nothing short of a holiday miracle in my eyes...something that i ssure to bring tears to your eyes.

Mike is usually an amazing singer and was sure his sore throat wouldn't affect his voice. He thought the group sounded so lovely he couldn't help but try and join in (not thinking about the fact that his face was a foot away from my camera microphone).

Enjoy the gift that keeps on giving....michael coleman everyone
p.s. the christmas miracle starts about 5 seconds in

Christmas Time

This has been such a busy (but cozy) week for us filled with shopping, cleaning, family, food and fun. Christmas Eve is especially important for my side of the family who are Danish. We celebrate the traditional way with fantastic food, dancing around the tree, and top it with our own traditions of gift exchanges and matching pajamas.
