Gymnastics

We are turning into a gymnastics family.

Cousins

Reed's sitter has still been under the weather, so Reed got a special cousin day on Thursday.

Madelyn insisted on her own cousin sleepover once she caught wind of Reed and B's special day.

Things My Kid Says

Madster: Dad, how old you will be on this birthday?

Mom: How old will you be on your birthday?

Madster: Yeah... yeah... how old?

Dad: Let's see... I will be 38!

Madster: Wow, you old. Soon you will be an angel.



WHAT?! Ray and I both look at each other quizzically as we ponder Maddy's newest thought.

Glasses in February... At night.

This girl cracks me up. This is what I find when I enter a room.

Doctor Madelyn

She told me she was working. Arm surgery.

Unexpected Day Off

Reed's sitter has been under the weather all week, so today I had an unexpected, rainy day off. Madelyn is on school break, so it was the perfect opportunity to get out and JUMP!

Relaxation Reed

Reed? Ray?

Thank you for sending Grandma!

Chubby Cheeks and Cheers

And I forgot! We had a Mary Poppins date last week.

Leprechauns, Valentine's, and a Home Heart

Notes

I decided for the first 14 days of February to place a heart on the kids' and our bedroom doors with a note of what I love about each of them... And I like how this project turned out. It was nice to make sure I told Ray, Madelyn, and Reed what was so special to me about them... Even if I was yelling about dirty socks and dishes later. 

Love

Growing up my mother always tried to make even the smaller holidays special. This is where I learned to start holidays with a sweet surprise! 

Gymnastics

Reed got his first trial at gymnastics. And he loved it!

Encounters

What are some things you may encounter after a visit to our house?

Well, Reed walking around with a towel on his head.

And Madelyn covered in stickers of course.

And there is also the nightly walk to bed. With a basket of puppies.

Yes. Those are the things you might encounter after a visit.

Nick Mom is right!

100 Days of School!

Girl Scouts at Disney on Ice

And a Girl Scout birthday party!
