I love February - it is finally a time where we can all sit back, relax, and exhale! We are go, go, go for so many months and finally February arrives and we embrace the laziness that comes with it.
Last Saturday, Casey took Ian to his first movie! They went to see Star Wars Episode 1 in 3D. I opted to stay home with Milo, after all I want to keep my streak of never seeing a complete Star Wars movie in tact. I think Ian enjoyed it, but it was still a bit overwhelming - definitely not the same as curling up with your blanket on the couch and watching a movie. Ian was a trooper though. They didn't make it through the whole movie (I would have been shocked if they did!), but all in all it was a good time.
Ian and his fort he made with help from Daddy. So cool! I was running errands and Casey sent me this picture. I love it:) I was able to partake in the fun once I got home and I forgot how awesome a fort is. We had a blast.
Brothers - they are just the cutest these days. It is so much fun watching them play together. Milo adores Ian and it sure seems like the feeling is mutual. Milo decided to take the dance party to the next level and make it a pants off, dance off kind of celebration. Ha!
I caught this adorable experience and SO wanted to get a video of it, but I knew if I tried to get my camera it would all be over so I settled for a picture. Ian is putting on a concert for Milo - playing his guitar (big brother gift from Miss Maggie) and making up his own lyrics. I love the songs he makes up - talk about hilarious! Milo just sat there patiently and listened. What you can't tell from the picture is Milo is tapping his hands and feet to the music and trying to sing along. It is moments like these I just want to freeze. I want to remember everything about this moment...what they were wearing, what they were singing, how they were laughing...it is beautiful and a blessing.
The boys surprised me with a 'just because' bouquet. So sweet! There were enough flowers to make 2 bouquets, but this was my favorite one:)
Valentine's Day has always been a holiday I could do without. The candy is great, but other than that I am good with no celebration. It helps that Casey and I went on our first date the day after Valentine's Day, so we choose to recognize that day instead. However, with kids you have to put on your big girl pants and partake in the fun. Right? Ian had to make valentines for preschool and day care. 27 in all = great name writing practice! He is doing such a great job learning how to write his name. I am sure he will thank us later for only having to worry about 3 letters:) It took 3 days, but he signed each and every one of them. He even stamped the back of each card himself too. So proud!
