happy february!

^^still figuring out how to take good pictures while moving. bear with me ;)^^

Happy February!

Yesterday Meme and Papa visited us.

As excited as the kids were, Hannah especially would not be stopped from heading to the park.

Walks are becoming a regular part of our day.

It probably helps that my kids love to play with their neighborhood friends!

I met another nanny a couple of days ago, and it's worked out fabulously since.

:)

I got Hannah up from her nap earlier that day and was led to the ottoman, where we sat for a couple of minutes.

She was less than happy when Joey came over with his toy dinosaur, explaining how it ate things.

"Joey, why do you talk so much??" she asked incredulously.

It's funny how fast she changes and recognizes things she used to do in other kids.

It's also a little sad.

Stay five years old and always blow me kisses, okay?

wednesday.

^^"i'm super tall, right?"^^

As you can see, Caleb is especially excited about the giant ruler on the wall.

(and not just because it's great for banging on)

Today was pretty successful.

Hannah said "I love you" at least four times, which was beyond sweet.

I even got her to sit still and actually smile for a picture.

:D

(usually she just shows all her teeth. seriously, all of them.)

Somehow Joey didn't get many pictures today.

Probably because as soon as he was finished snack, we headed for the park again.

Parks are awesome.

At this point, I could write an entire post about them.

The one we go to is just a field with a gazebo, and it works wonders.

All they do is run, and they love it!

Why did I not think of it before??

In other news, Caleb is convinced that he knows how to use the phone.

He finds it quite entertaining.

we're back ;)

So I figured I should get back to blogging.

As cute as these kids are, not everyone on Facebook wants to see a million pictures of them.

I've got to share them somewhere!

^^there are more, but they wouldn't fit into the collage^^

See what I mean?

;)

(and can you tell that I'm still figuring out how to take pictures while walking and pushing a stroller?)

~ New and exciting things that happened today: ~

We took a walk! It was my first one with kids.

We spent a little bit of time in someone else's driveway while Joey hid behind a plant... (he didn't nap very well.) -_-

Other than that, I'm pretty sure he thinks he's Flash with the way he never sits still ;)

Maybe he'll join the track team in high school.

Hannah got the training wheels off of her bike. She's still learning to ride it, but she's so excited!

Caleb loved pushing the stroller around.

And can we please talk about how sucked into Micky he gets??

^^it's adorable :)^^
