Reagan Rocks the Perot!

Reagan is so much fun right now!
She walks everywhere and loves to just wander whenever she has the freedom.
Last week we took some friends to the Perot Museum and Reagan had so much fun participating, learning, discovering, and playing in the children's area.'

Of course she wasn't the only one having fun! Colin loved having his buddies, Peter and Isaac, there to check out the dinosaurs and race the cheetahs!







Valentine's Day Activities

On Valentine's Day, Kevin came home with giant lollipops from work for the kids...Colin was so excited about his giant sucker!

They had an adorable  party at the preschool


Miss Jocelyn threw a fun cookie decorating and craft party for the kids


On Valentine's Day, Kevin usually sends flowers, but this year I specifically requested that he didn't.  I didn't want him to waste the money since we were planning on going out to a fancy dinner the next day. i asked, instead, for a poem! 
And this is what I got:

I love it!

On the 15th, we had a group of 12 and our own private room at one of my favorite steak houses, The Capital Grille.  They have this amazing steak with a pepper rub and balsamic vinegar that is to die for! Not to mention their unsurpassed creme brulee and cheesecake...so delicious!
Seriously, the best I have ever had...and I am kind of a creme brulee snob!

It was so much fun to be in our own room and at a round table! It made for easy conversation between the whole group and lots of fun! We have some amazing friends and everyone is so funny!  We look forward to our weekends so we can go out with all of them!

Story Time

Rockwall has such a great story time at their library complete with songs, books, and crafts.
We would go more often if I could stomach the tantrum that inevitably ensues!
Colin and his bestie, Isaac 


His favorite part is playing on the computer after and getting to wear headphones.

They even had this cute board set up for picture taking!


Snow Day!

Snow absolutely shuts Dallas down!
We had a fun time staying cozy, enjoying our fireplace, baking, and playing in the snow!











Cousin Play Day

The Sharps came over last month to hang out and eat (best way to spend a Saturday in my opinion!!) and we got such a kick out of watching these cousins play! They are getting to be such good friends!

Colin and Dylan both got Buzz Lightyears in December for birthday/Christmas and they have such a fun time playing with them together!  
"To infinity and beyond!!"


Reagan loves sitting in her buggy and Blake was sweet enough to push her around!

Arboretum

In the end of January, we had some unexpected nice weather and had a Saturday picnic at the Arboretum.
Colin loves finding all the waterfalls along the path!

 Reagan loved all the attention from Daddy!

Making wet hand prints on the cement...
 Little and big hands :)

Colin's Room!!

When Nana was here in January, she painted Colin's room and it is SOOOO ADORABLE!!!

Nana is an expert at clouds and hand painted everything - including the cute plane (the letters are cut from vinyl)!!  She added some fun construction decals and spray painted stone texture spray to resemble dirt.

Colin was eager to have a sun like Reagan's room and Nana couldn't refuse!  We bought a new dresser from Ikea and called it good!

Colin loves his room and tells everyone who visits that "Nana painted it for me!"
