Random kid updates

I know it has been a while since I have updated on the kids, largely because they are keeping me busy constantly! Here are some recent photos that show what the Donovan's have been up to...

Brina came to visit us for almost a week in January. It was wonderful to see her, and I love having someone around to keep me company while I run herd on the kids. She is terrific with both kids and they adore her. For almost a week after she left Nathan kept pointing to the bed where she slept and asking for her. We wish she lived MUCH closer to us than 3 states away!

Meredith's look shows her attitude these days. When did she turn 13 again?

Nathan loves to walk in other people's shoes...a trait that will serve him well in life! This picture also shows how he now "poses" (aka squats down) for every single photo we take...

Matt does family play time with the kids once they are ready for bed. He lies down on the floor and flips them, wrestled with them, and Nathan recently started bringing Matt a book and asking him to read it. Meredith and Nathan picked up on that very quickly and have a great time reading like this throughout the day.

The kids are both in a strong Daddy phase right now, this is the traditional greeting when he gets home from work!
