Grandpa's Birthday

We celebrated Grandpa's Birthday at Craig & Tiffany's, with grandpas' twin Keith and his daughter Melissa too. The kids always enjoy time with their cousins and of course their papa!

The kids eating dinner at the island--All the kids trying to get as many olives as they can from their beloved papa

23 months old

Alex turned 23 months. Per the pictures, he's starting to express his opinions more (as in Mom, please let me play and stop making me sit here to take the pictures!)

He has increased his vocabulary a lot lately, which is a relief for the entire family as the frustration level was reaching an all time high.

He continues to loves his train set, playing with Anna and watching as much TV as possible (much to our dismay). He also likes to find new people to charm. Hard to believe when Anna was this age, we were bringing him home! And, hard to believe our little baby is almost two!

Open Gym Fun

We spend a lot of Saturdays at the Mtka Community Education Building. First, dance is from 9-9:45 and Open Gym is from 10-11. The kids LOVE playing in the open play area and we love that they have a great place to get some energy out!

Happy Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day wasn't very good to us. Anna was sick most of the day Saturday/Sat night. And, now Paul isn't feeling well. But, Paul & I got a movie in Saturday afternoon (Val Day) and the kids got to wear their new shirts (kiki is my valentine is the tag line!)

Happy Valentine's Day!

Alex's 1st haircut

Alex got his first haircut today. Of course, he had to visit my hairstylist Shari at Mask! He looks like such a little man now!!

Snow Time!

We got a chance to enjoy the fresh snow today! Alex isn't a fan of being outside, but he endures. It was a lot of work taking the kids together on the sled...especially bringing them up the hill together! Anna making snow angels

Alex doesn't want to go out & explore, but he's at least happy!

Crazy Hair Day

2 big things at day care today...Anna pooped in the potty (movie, here we come!!!) and Alex got a purple mohawk! It's wacky week at day care and today was crazy hair day. I love that I picked up my son with a purple mohawk today. That seriously made my day.
