Here are a few pictures of his progress...
Meanwhile the other Millers were busy doing projects of their own. Noah took some scraps that Drew had lying around and made this chair without any help other than to ask his Papa to cut off one side of the circle in order to fix it to the bottom of the chair. I think he may have a future at Harrison Higgins Inc.
A lot of the rest of their time off school was spent outside making forts with the fort building stuff my dad gave them for Christmas. Here are just two examples of the forts they built. (They also spent time building "see-saws" to launch snowballs, a pumpkin left over from Halloween, and each other into the air.)
This week Noah stayed home with a bad cough which kept him home from school but didn't keep him from going outside to play. The boys spent an hour trying to catch a neighborhood cat with a crate hooked up to a rope. Ben sat under their newest fort without moving (for 20 minutes-I counted) holding the rope in hopes of catching the cat. (don't worry...I would not have allowed them to do this if their trap had any chance of working)
While all of the boys in our family have been busy building, I have been busy growing a third boy in my tummy. He is doing very well and we are all excited about his arrival some time in April.
