I love you honey!!

February Fun

Lots of fun this past month, despite the COLD and SNOW and ICE. We had a great friend visit us from Seattle. None other than Christian!! We were thrilled to have him come and stay for a night and Randy was so glad to have his buddy here, who we credit with pushing him to study in Medical School. His wife is the most crafty person I know. She sent him with scrub caps for Randy and a SWEET blanket/stroller cover for Caroline - adorable - she and 2 friends have a blog : Little Birdie Secrets that I frequent.

Here are a few pics from our Valentine's Day party:

I think we had 15-20 kids (not counting the babies) with Valentine cards for everyone - and cookies & punch. We are going to have to do it again next year - so much fun!

And because Cooper is now Potty - Trained (say it with me all you mommies - YEA!) we went with his buddy, Luke (also potty-trained) to Chuck E Cheese's.

Even Caroline got in on the fun:

Winter isn't complete without a trip to the Gymnest to bounce and play. Coop is MUCH more daring this year than last:

C.J. was happy just to be moving:

Finally, I'll leave with this picture of Randy totally throwing his macho-too-cool attitude out the door - this is how he got exercise this month. Yes, that is a super hero cape he is wearing. Yes, I will be in trouble for posting this pic. The things you do for your kids!
