Happy...February!

Well this might just be the busiest February we've ever had! We started the month with Matthew's birthday (which somehow stretched in to two weeks, and go figure, I ended up with a grand total of ONE picture from the event(s).), and will end it with Matt's birthday. Between the two we have Valentines day, car shopping, Andree's Baby shower, and Grandma's birthday. Shew! Im tired....

However I have managed to muster enough energy to post a few pictures and keep y'all updated on all of what's going on around here. First of all, here is my littlest Valentine...in cousin Sarah's adorable dress...isn't she sweet?...



...I mean aside from the fat lip and almost healed black eye of course:

Poor Pea has had a rough few weeks-she has started to learn how to run, which results in many many baby boo-boos...lots of tears, and of course chocolate to make it all better. She does have a HUGE sweet tooth so I am beginning to wonder if all the bumps are actually accidents...

Matthew turned five on the first day of the month, and he doesn't quite believe that he has made it to five...on his birthday he kept asking me "are you sure I really turned five?". It's a pretty big deal I guess!

He had strep throat on his actual birthday, so we were unable to do the family party we wanted to, but instead had ice cream sundaes after dinner...let me tell you...putting candles in ice cream can be a bit dicey!

He and Caitlin are still in love with all things dragon. They continue to call each other Mr. and Mrs. Rosie and I hardly ever hear them use their real names. One of their favorite things to do is to play the new wii Santa brought for Christmas. They are quite good at wii sports, but we have had to ban them from playing Mario Party because inevitably somebody always ends up in tears...hopefully they will outgrow that! Poor Pea would love to be able to play...so we always just give her a remote so she thinks she is playing:



Anyway, I gotta run...the kids are all out of school today and they are quickly and efficiently tearing up the house I just spent all morning cleaning!
