End of February Already???

So I'm really not keeping up with the blog that well this year so far ... maybe I'll work on that! It's been another couple weeks since I last posted, so I thought I'd stick a few pictures up here that I snapped last night while the kids were playing. It was a nice, laid-back night just staying home and playing (after they chose pizza Lunchables for supper (I know, ew!) and Meggan finished her homework up quick). They played cars and Geotrax trains the rest of the evening until it was bath/shower time!


Meggan getting all of her Littlest Pet Shops situated JUST RIGHT in each of the train cars!

The final assembly line they had going on. Yes, those are cars and a tractor that she was manually pushing along the track instead of just using the train cars that have a remote... :)

It's been a busy couple weeks, but I truly can't tell you what we've really been up to. :) The kids stayed the night at Mom's house last Friday night so that I could get up and go to our office meeting on Saturday morning, and they had a BLAST! They love going to Grandma's house and helping with the kitties!

Letting Mommy try and get a good picture of them together!

Other than that, not much is new here. Looking forward to March and - hopefully - some spring weather starting to show its face!!! We need to get outside and burn off some energy and play! We've seen some sun the past couple days, so that has been wonderful! Even though it's still cold, at least the sunshine makes people feel better!

They're just so freaking cute!

Have a great weekend!

Recent Happenings!

I noticed that it's been a couple weeks (or maybe even more, but who's counting?) since I last managed to post on the blog, so this will be a little recap of what we've been doing! It's not like we've been super-busy or anything ... just haven't gotten around to it.

Actually, whenever I think about posting, I never think I have any pictures to post. I went to download the ones I snapped this morning of the kids in their Valentine's shirts to e-mail to Jason's mom and dad, and I had forgotten about the ones from the Children's Museum a couple weekends ago... Man, it stinks getting old! :)

A couple weekends ago we decided to go ahead on Saturday morning and have some fun at the Children's Museum. Our membership was running out at the end of January, so we wanted to squeeze in one last time! We had been meaning to get there so Meggan could see the big Barbie exhibit that opened in mid-December, and we finally got there. She loved it! I think we're going to go ahead and renew our membership - the kids had a BLAST that morning!!!

Meggan in the Barbie fashion show runway (they have a whole bunch of stuff in the back that you can dress up in)!

Last weekend was, of course, the big SuperBowl game. We were SOOO sad to see our Colts get beat by the Saints, but it isn't always the best team that wins; right?!?! They had a great season, and we still love our Colts! Of course, the kids looked so cute with their Colts gear that day, but my camera battery was dead and I forgot to ask Dawn or Jer to snap a couple with their camera and just e-mail them to me. Oh, well. I'll snap one of them someday soon and post it. From school Meggan got (well, we bought) a jersey-shaped necklace and picked to put #44 on it and then got some jersey-shaped earrings that are dangly and picked to put #18 on them - they're so cute! And they were only $5, so that was a fun little something for her!
Valentine's Day is upon us this weekend, and this afternoon is Meggan's party in her classroom at school and should be lots of fun! Meggan's teacher told them to wear red or something with hearts on it, so I thought she looked pretty cute. We also had to put red on Jordan. I took a picture of each of the kids this morning before heading off to school/sitter/work, and then Jordan decided I needed my picture taken as well. He did a pretty good job (of course, I had to squat down or he would have gotten nothing but my legs and feet in the picture...)!
Meggan looking extra cute!
And Jordan looking extra cute too!
"Say cheese, Mommy!"
Wishing everyone a Happy Valentine's Day! Hug the ones you love extra tight!
