The usual stuff around here in addition to Bode's birthday party. We go to school. We do homework. We read books (Bode's reading and it's really fun!). We play. We fight and bicker. We get sent to our rooms. We apologize. We repeat that cycle. We constantly ask for food even though a meal was just served. Mommy gives herself a timeout or two. We have playdates. We hosted a Superbowl party. We're enjoying new friends. Here are some pictures of our February so far...
Keegen and I built some towers (while Bode was at school) so we could knock them down with monster trucks.
A sample of some of Bode's recent artwork. He's really gotten into drawing and coloring.
Oh, she's cute! And she's rolling over from tummy to back. I have it on video. But it's a long video because she took her time when i asked her to perform in front of the camera.
She's also much more aware of her surroundings. See? "Oh! Hello there!," she says. "How can i get you in my mouth?!" She plays with the toys on her gym now.
We have some new weapon additions to our household thanks to Bode's bday party. Being the "safety girl" that i am, i appreciate the safety glasses. Now he just needs some ear protection...
Even though the pediatrician told me they now recommend holding off solids until at least 5 months for breastfed babies, i decided she was ready for some rice cereal. She seems to like it. Really.
She's signing "more." Yes, my baby is brilliant. She'll be reading soon, too.
She's also discovered that she can suck in her bottom lip. Fun times.
I made these banners for sisters-in-law and sister. I enjoyed it until i made six of them. Then i was kind of sick of it. But i traced all the letters and shapes and cut them out and stitched them by hand. And then i said "to hell with it!" and hot glue gunned them to the ribbon!
Bode at his school Valentines Party. That's his buddy Jacob next to him.
Doug and the babe on Valentines Day before church.
Oh, so cute again! I learned from the show "What Not to Wear" that metallics are neutrals, so aren't her shoes fun? And what a cute little Ralph Lauren dress, eh? Yes. So cute that during Relief Society she made it extra special by pooping up her back and all over her dress. THAT was fun.
The tank sent by Grandpa Bill. Doug has made sure the boys know it is HIS and that he is letting them play with it.
We've decided to make the Superhero posters a permanent fixture in our family room. They launch the missiles from the tank and try to hit a specific character.
So cute Ash!!Soren is growing up too fast! I love the poop story, probably because I have been there. We still have the banner hanging up and considering that it is March I should probably take it down. But what the heck, we need LOVE all year round right! Thanks again!!
