Carsten has proven to be a constant source of entertainment! He is getting more and more interested in how things work lately. On Saturday 1/4/14, he discovered our lamp...specifically that it has an on/off cord. This provided endless entertainment for him! He seems to prefer leaving it off for some reason.
Carsten has also discovered (Sunday 1/15/14) that our television has a small on/off button as well. This one is amazing to him....not so impressive to anyone trying to watch tv! When he first discovered the button, he would push it over and over listening to it click. After about an hour of this, he realized that it did something. He would push it then look around to see if the tv actually went off. Then, he would push it again, then check to see that it actually came back on. Then, repeat. Over and over and over again. Good times.
We have been dealing with a huge winter storm since this weekend. Even though we were supposed to go back to school on Monday, that did not happen. We got the call on Sunday that school was canceled for Monday. We got the call on Monday, that school was canceled again on Tuesday. We will see when we return :) We have really enjoyed just spending time as a family though, and are very grateful for the extra time off. Jayden and Carsten have had a lot of play time as well. Carsten has always adored his big brother, but he has recently decided that Jayden is about the funniest person ever. Jayden was tossing around a pink golf ball, and Carsten thought it was hysterical...we enjoyed the baby giggles!
