February

70 degree weather calls for Sunday lunch at our house!

Looking for squirrels

We had a little time to kill before we picked Anders up from school, so we met Nana at Krispy Kreme! It was a fun treat. Cora got a lady bug doughnut to match her shirt!

Waiting for Baby Joe to arrive!

Sweet mommy and baby :)

(We had to leave before we were allowed in the room, but we can't wait to hold that little guy!)

Pink Night for the Gumnastics meet! Nana got us all tickets!

We got to meet Baby Joe! The kids loved holding him.

Cora and Papa Joe time on Sunday afternoon.

Even though they are so mean to each other, they can be so sweet too.

Anders can now buckle AND unbuckle the bottom buckle on his carseat now!! PARTAY!

We've been practicing for when the new baby gets here, and he and Jaden move to the third row. 

I want to freeze time right now...

You try to get a sweet picture of bother and sister, and the other brother has his hands down his pants... that kid...

Fun day outside Thursday. Cora wasn't feeling good though. It lead to a rough next few days.

Nana, Papa Joe, Scott, Spencer, Parker and Madalyn all went to see Jaden play his next to last Upward game!

(I was home with Cora)

Love their support!

Mimi and Pops sent us some Valentines sweets!

Our baby announcement!

From Thursday to Wednesday. What a difference prayers, great doctors and good medicine make!

We're starting to feel good again! And her brothers are so glad to have Sassy home!

Jaden's first baseball practice this season.

Anders wrote his name all by himself!

I came in from cleaning Cora's room and Anders had cut up a banana for her!
He's so sweet to her!

Charlie and Sam brought the princess some accessories.

Jaden's last Upward game and Awards night. He had a great time playing basketball! I think Brad made it even more fun for him.

Parker's birthday party!

An afternoon outside makes us happy! :)

Happy Birthday Papa Joe!

Jaden loves reading, and they love listening to him. :)

Cora finally got to "Hold Baby Joe!" She's a baby hog... I only got to hold him like 5 minutes!

My project this week! I've been waiting for years to paint this table, and my dad gave me the "go ahead" so I finished it in two days! 

Fun Friday with each other. :)

Watching Shrek the Musical! 

Trying on my old clothes! 

I LOVE this picture! Anders is such a sweetheart. 

"Hey mom! Take a picture of us holding hands and sliding!"

Ahhh tank top weather!!! 

Wounded Night at Awana. Cora had to get a bandage too! 

Monday we celebrated Anders' FIRST birthday!!

He makes our life happier, that's for sure. He's always smiling and can have a good time anywhere he goes. We love our Baby A!

Jaden wanted us to eat lunch with him, to celebrate!

Brothers getting the sister to touch the cricket! When she'd touch it, they'd all scream!!

Her first goose egg! It was under Daddy's watch... not mine!

He got to get a free personal pan pizza since his birthday is on Leap Day!

February was a sickly month. :(

We are so happy to have celebrated our first birthday of the year (in the family) and can't wait for 5 MORE this year!!
