Red Rocks

One day we drove out to Red Rocks and had a picnic in the ampitheatre. The girls had a lot of fun climbing up and down on the seats. I enjoyed walking through the visitors center and learning the history of Red Rocks and seeing all the musical acts that have played there.

Denver Children's Museum

While visiting my mom and sister in Denver, we took a trip to the Denver Children's Museum.

Kathryn dressed as a bunny.

Sydney getting her groove on and dancing to the music. She even has tap shoes on!

K & S in a squirrel nest. Kathryn is holding a gigantic (stuffed) earthworm!

We love Liam!

Liam is our only boy cousin...on both sides! So, he's special.

Luckily, his head is covering up the statue peeing behind him!

The letter H

Kathryn got the letter box on her last day (there was still another week, but we were going to Colorado). So, we took pictures of things starting with the letter H and mailed it to her teacher.

Box Tops for Education

I am the "Cash for Trash" coordinator at the local elementary, J.L. Mudd. This is the elementary that Kathryn will attend starting in August for full-day Kindergarten. This is my current contest board. Each class earns a flower petal for every 10 Box Tops they collect. It's a fun way to have the classes compete for an extra recess.

Here is our tracker.

11 weeks old

Reagan is outgrowing her swaddle blanket! She can kick the bottom right out of it.

Sydney entertaining Reagan. I know I'm not a baby, but I don't really enjoy when a rattle is shaken 2 inches from my face. Guess she does!

Her cute little onsie says, "I love Mommy" in pink glittery letters!

Kathryn's expecting

She made me laugh out loud when she came in like this! I had her do the classic maternity pose and she hammed it up!

Here's the reveal! Not really a baby! I told her that being pregnant isn't really that comfortable and it's really hard to bend over, etc. So she proceeded to bend over and squish her ball baby and then did a belly flop on the ground.

Caught in the act! Putting pennies on her sister's head! I guess she could have been putting them in worse places.

10 weeks old

Reagan is 10 weeks old today! She is such a sweet and good baby. As we speak she is asleep in her crib! I tried to catch some of her smiles today.

Look! She's waving!

Oh, that's a good one. It's hard to try to get her to smile and to hope I'm aiming the camera at her face!

Can you guess who put the pennies on her head? I love the look on her face!

Any ideas?

I found this at Grace's (my favorite local consignment store) this morning. Any ideas of what I could do with it? I was thinking I could put sheet metal on the back and make it a magnetic board like this. I'd love to hear what you think!

Reagan's 2 month checkup

Reagan had her 2 month check up today. She has gained 4 pounds since birth and grown 2 1/2 inches! She now weighs 10 pounds 1.5 ounces, and is 21 3/4 inches long. Dr. Myers said she looks great and has good control of her head. She got 2 shots today and got so mad she turned purple! But only for a second, then she recovered.

Sunday, February 14th

Sydney gave her first talk in Primary today. Her topic was "Jesus Christ is our Savior and Redeemer". She talked about how we can be forgiven for our sins (bad choices) because of the atonement. She chose Mike to help her with her talk and she did very well. Kathryn kept turning around to me and saying, "She's doing such a good job Mom! Sydney's doing it!" She possibly remembers her first talk when she wouldn't actually speak and I gave her talk for her. (I took this picture after church, so as not to look like one of "those mothers".)

Reagan cuddled up watching the Olympics. Isn't that flannel pretty? I love it.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Here are my Valentine's with their loot. Hope you have a special day with your Valentine(s)!
