Airplane Ride!

So many firsts...It was a joy to watch the kids excitement at the airport and on the plane for the first time!

Happy Valentine's Day!

The kids got a pretty huge valentine's day surprise...news that we're flying to Disney World at the end of the month! They were so excited. Kendra got her own wheelie backpack to take on the plane and has been loading it up and hauling it around since. They were both very excited for their parties at school. Colin wrote all his valentines himself for the first time.

Human Snowman!

Since we've had super warm temps and little snow this winter (love it!!!) the kids had to get creative to make a snowman!

Our new room!

To complete their new room, the kids each got to pick out their own stickers to decorate their side....cupcakes and Marios Bros. it is!!

Big Girl Bed!

It's official...Kendra now has her own big girl bed. Her and Colin are sharing a room and they are very excited!!

Vocab...and more vocab!

Kendra continues to wow us with her vocabulary and her full sentences. She usually uses her tenses correctly too. It is so amazing to listen to her talk and wonder where she picked it all up from and when she changed from a toddler to a little girl. On the way home today, she said "Mom, when it rains outside, we're gonna have to put our umbrellas over our heads". Along with this gift of speech...she is also becoming a very skilled negotiator!

Santa Came While we were gone!

He filled our stockings with treats and toys....as requested...A pink cupcake & a Superman suit...and also a pirate ship and barbie washer and dryer! And maybe the most exciting gift of all, the kids each got their very own chapstick!!!! :)
