Helton brothers

Even though it's cold outside, we as a family continue to find adventure and fun! Plus these brothers keep me on my toes and make me laugh often. Here's to another fabulous February!

Monkey-see-Monkey-do

Lukas wants to be just like his brothers. He will mimic everything they do. Slurping bowls, laser tag, use lightsabers on the tramp, nerf gun fight and makes all the necessary sounds that go with them.

Sledding with the big boys...and Daddy!

The gang...Mason, Crew, Walker, Nash and J, S, & L

We are not much of a football fan, but we will show a little spirit when the Broncos compete in the Superbowl(50 years)...and win!

Before we were pregnant with Lukas, we tore out the only bathtub in the whole house. After he was born, we built in a 4 foot bathtub for him to enjoy. Silas enjoys it once in awhile too. I think he likes to dump water on Lukas' head...lol!

At 19 months, Lukas can now walk down the stairs forward without holding on to anything. Impressive! Plus he loves to read anywhere he can.

Kindergarten Valentine party! So much fun!

Silas lost his second tooth this month while he was pooping on the toilet. What a million dollar smile!

Jonas and mommy weekend in Breckenridge! (I have a trip with Silas in May)

First, Jonas wanted to ski the bowls and then hike out of bounds since Silas is not with us. Jonas amazes me how much he loves to ski and how good he is. There is a genuine passion in his heart. I pray all the time that God would protect Jonas and watch over him on the ski hill. This will be an awesome journey for him! May Jonas have God lead him!

Out of bound adventure! Can you see the sign that says "You can DIE"?

Next day we went cross country skiing at the nordic center. He skied over 7 miles and Jonas loved it.

There was so much laughter and peeing of the pants. Oops!

Jonas had a destination on the map...hallelujah hut! The farthest and highest point on the trails! We did it together!

Jonas was so proud of himself. Someday, Jonas would like to live in a hut that's far from civilization, hunt for food, and be in the woods. I believe this will be an adventure for him one day in his lifetime.

Back at home, Lukas, Silas, and Snowball waiting for our arrival home after a weekend gone.

Rock climbing is one of their favorite pastimes. Silas rocks!

Getting outside in the middle of winter is so important even if you have to bundle up. Brothers playing soccer in the background while Lukas flies a kite(Matt's garfield kite when he was a kid) for the first time! He was all giggles!

The reading level Jonas has obtained astounds me! When he finds an author or a series, he will read them all and waiting for breakfast is a perfect time too.

Lukas has a new love for Construction tractors...just like his brother, Jonas when he was this age. I find myself looking for any trucks while driving so we can be awstrucken together. These tractors were parked and not in use, so we climbed on them for over an hour.

Three brothers in a bucket!

At the same age, I took a picture of Jonas and now Lukas! You can see their own personality come out in this photos. Lukas is daring and shows outwardly how he feels...Jonas is content and his big smile was a huge sign that he was super excited inwardly!
