Appreciating: February

-
There has been so much to appreciate this month.  In our typical fashion, we have kept entertained, from play dates to fire pits, there is never a dull moment.

My Picasso
Her people drawing skills are on point.  In this particular photo she took heed of everyone’s favorite color and proceeded to draw them in it.  This is a family photo of mommy, daddy, Grandma, Nonnie, Aunt Cassie, and Aunt Kelly.



The Cold
Taking advantage of the nip in the air, we broke out the marshmallows and got to roasting.  Although neither child was interested in a charred fluff.  They walked around eating chocolate and plain old marshmallows, so much to learn young grasshoppers.




The Birds
One of our favorite after dinner spots, we frequent the park to feed the crazy birds, turtles, and fish.  




Birthday Countdown
This little girl may not make it to her big day.  Mommy is breaking out all the stops to make it as epic as she is anticipating.  Her favorite line these days- “Can I have this for my party” spoken in regards to every toy that comes into her path.  Daddies going to have to get a second job just to fund all her presents.




Manatees
We enjoy the rain and cold for many reasons such as blowing bubbles and snuggly reading time.  It also brings some local favorites to our canals where they cuddle and snuggle as well, trying to keep warm.






Uptown Funk
Home girl likes to get down in the mornings while waiting in the school car loop line.





A Girl and her Dog



Play Dates
Still can’t get enough of our two besties.  Luke and Kaelyn have always had the best of time together, but the past couple weeks Lana and Katelyn are discovering it’s more fun to get in trouble together versus solo.





Valentine’s Day
We had our second annual V-day breakfast and scavenger hunt.  Kaelyn also had a special party at school- she was sooooo excited to pass out her valentines and get some in return.





Kid could not find the 5th heart to save her life.  




Take My Picture
We headed to the zoo on Valentine’s Day and Kaelyn posed on every bench we passed- “take my picture.”






I’m off to party plan.  Say a prayer.

As I sit here, drinking my pumpkin spice creamer (with a splash of coffee) and munching some pumpkin bread I’m trying to tie my jumble of pictures together into a post that makes some sort of sense… and pretty much getting nowhere.   It’s been a bit chaotic around here… not really sure why… but can’t seem to bring the focus in to get a blog post done.   So with the focus thrown out the window, here is what we have been up to lately... Tara paid us a visit not to long ago and we got to   meet her little beauty, Priya.   Love that girl as does my Kaelyn. Smart girl... knows the best team in college football!  (thanks for the photo bomb Josh!)   We may have a little volunteer fire fighter on our hands… as long as she doesn’t have to hold onto the hose too tight.  For Kaelyn’s first birthday we got her a bike trailer that we cruised around in all of three times in Jupiter and haven’t touched since… until now.   We live super close to a beautiful p

Appreciating: November!

AHHHH!  Prepping for a new baby and holidays make for one crazy combo in my world.  So here we are, February knocking on the door, and I am finally posting our November, December, and January.  Better late than never I suppose.  It's been a super busy three months, but we have celebrated Thanksgiving, a new niece, Christmas, and prepared for a new arrival by moving the girls into one room and getting his nursery ready to go. And now, November.. We have moved up in gymnastics... now both girls get to play while mama sits.  My kind of gymnastics class.   We traveled to Tampa for Thanksgiving this year.  No baking involved... Ruth Chris Steak House for the win. A Thanksgiving celebration at school Daddy Daughter Date Our annual tree selection ceremony.  This year I was pretty insistent on the tree we chose... which ended up being a dud and hardly making it through Christmas.  Oops.

Happy Birthday Chad

Today, January 25 th , we would be celebrating my brother’s 33 rd birthday.  When I think of him passing at the age of twenty, one of the first thoughts that always enters my head is being sad for him that he never reached legal drinking age.  I couldn’t wait for this day when I was twenty, but honestly, he probably could have cared less.  Chad didn’t get into trouble.  He was quiet, kind, responsible, thoughtful, tall, handsome… any mamma’s dream child. Chad lived a peaceful and content life at home with my Mom, Cassie, and Jack.   He loved his video games and actually liked his job at Federal Express.   Nothing breaks my heart more than not being home with him and my family his last couple years.   As the years pass, my memories fade, and that is gut wrenching.   I have tried and tried to remember the last time we were together or our last conversation, and both have vanished.   I do know the last time we talked over the phone we had discussed something about my cat, an
