Feeding the Ducks

We decided that today looked like a great day for feeding ducks. It wasn't quite as warm as it looked, so we couldn't stay long, but it was really nice to get a little fresh air.

The ducks were happy to see us.

Makenna really loved watching the ducks & cruising in the stroller. Austin always finds a stick (or three) that he can't leave behind.

We LOVE Valentine's Day!

Natalie finally got the chance to put Gram's valentine box making skills to the test. Every other year they have just made bags at school, but this year they got to make and bring a box. We always made boxes when I was in school and my Mom always had great ideas, so when I found out Natalie needed to make a box I told her to call Gram. This is the cute box they made together. Natalie loves it and "is going to keep it forever and ever" Natalie's valentine hairdo for school.

Austin with his Valentine's from preschool. They had a fun party and exchanged cards and treats, Austin was so excited and loved every minute of it!

Friday night we had a special family dinner and then gave the kids a valentine present. Gram and Pop also came over Friday and brought them a valentine. They gave Austin a new cowboy hat and he hasn't taken it off since.

Growing up too Fast!

Makenna is growing up so fast! She is 7 months old now, I can't believe how time flies! She is changing so much and learning lots of new things, she still is not crawling, but can pretty much get wherever she wants to go by rolling around and scooting. She is such a fun and happy girl and is always making us laugh. We are so happy to have her in our family.

She discovered that she loves eating "real food" and making a real big mess!

Austin loves his baby sister, they have lots of fun together!
