We stretched our celebrating out over several days this year.

On Saturday, February 12 Grandma and Paw Paw paid a visit with special valentines for us.

That night, we went to the GUMC Valentine Banquet. 

On Sunday, February 13 we made a special breakfast of heart shaped muffins, egg casserole, and fruit.  We exchanged cards and presents.

Then we went to see Gnomeo and Juliet – super cute!!  Cody especially loved the lawn mower racing – takes after his daddy I guess.

Monday Karaline and I made heart shaped mini pizzas and heart shaped pasta salad served on our new heart plates from Target!

Well, it’s official, you have now been out as long as you were in!

And with the arrival of Cousin Cora yesterday, I guess you aren’t the baby of the family anymore!

Stats- 25 lbs. 11 oz., 30 inches long, head circumference 19 inches

.: What You’re Wearing- 18 months fit best, but I have been buying spring clothes in 24 months.

: Firsts- crawling everywhere FAST, just this morning you tried to pull up on mommy when we were playing on the floor. It won’t be long now before you are cruising.

.: From Head To Toe- I have been debating about your first haircut, I have to tuck your hair behind your ears and it laps over your shirt collar in the back. Grandmas says we should wait until you can sit still better. Not sure if you’ll ever get your hair cut by that criteria! Tooth 5 is in with evidence of teeth 6, 7, & 8 close behind! I guess we’ll be serving steak at your first Birthday! You had to go to the doctor for a goopy eye, but dr. says is was just a cold – good old amoxicillin to the rescue!

.: Loves- bouncing in the Exersaucer, race track, building and knocking down blocks with sister, trains, reading stories.

.: Dislikes- not being held between 5 and 7 p.m.

.: Eating- love all fruit except for banana, likes veggies, and new this month – chicken and noodle dinner in a jar! You like to try eating veggie puffs and cheerios, but your accuracy isn’t too great yet!

.: Sleeping- goes to sleep about 8 or 9, wakes about 7
