Our Lovey Dovey Valentine's Day

The party started on the 13th, making special valentines for their cousins. I cut out a bunch of hearts and they went to town gluing, painting, and creating.
 The finished products! Now to get them mailed...
 The next morning the girls woke up to a festive Valentine's Day table with candy, toys, books, and food. I made chocolate chip muffins to make the day extra special for them. You would have thought it was Christmas.
 So in love with these three!! My heart!
We finished the day off with a little shopping and gelato in Seattle. It was wonderful.
Happy Valentine's Day!

Another Snow Day!

Saturday night it started snowing! We figured it would all be melted by morning, but nooooo... Sunday morning we woke up to a couple inches of BEAUTIFUL SNOW!! We live for this stuff.

They even canceled church, due to the "hazardous road conditions", so we played outside all morning in our little "backyard".
Working together to build "Olaf"...
 Always fixing the gloves :)
 Adding a few finishing touches...
 Final product! Meet Olaf.
 The girls wanted a picture hugging it... Cheese balls. 
Yes, even Grant, at five weeks old, went sledding :)
Love this crew.
 Annie's face is priceless.
Grant LOVES being outside.
 And to finish it off, a picture of my little Shae Shae. I love her.
After a while, Shae came inside with Grant and I to warm up under a blanket. Her gloves fell off one too many times leading to a couple of freezing hands and cheeks.

Annie and Daddy stayed out there for quite a bit longer, building homes out of snow for bugs. Once they joined us inside, we warmed ourselves up with some hot chocolate.

I love snow days.

One Month!

Our little Grant is starting to fit into some size three month clothes! Slow down baby! He's growing up so fast. We are loving every minute with him.

Something about babies in silly hats that gets me going... :) 
 I had to add this "behind the scenes" one... Annie is my little helper. Always making sure Grant is happy. He adores her.
