February

We had some beautiful warm weather here during the first two weeks of February.  So between all of Lance's labwork, night clinic, and boards studying, we stole some time to go play. It's official--we are going to miss it here.
We're going to miss hearing the sound of these ships on foggy nights
 Just to get an idea of how huge the ships are, each one of the boxes goes on the back of a semi truck.
 A funny girl pretending to do a cartwheel. Dad helped her out.
 The question I hear most from Evelyn is if she can have a pet butterfly. Specifically, a pink butterfly.  She said he can even ride in the car with us, and take a bath with her.  When I told her maybe he would miss his butterfly family that lived outside she said, "Mom, he's just a butterfly--not a people.  He wouldn't cry."
 Blake is a heart melter.  He is SUCH a sweet kid.  He is six months and huge mover!  He kicks his legs so much he gets blisters on his big toes from his feet touching each other as he kicks.  At his six month checkup he was: 17lbs (35th percentile), 27 inches (75th percentile), and head circumference (can't remember but 54th percentile)
 Addi has been our comic relief lately.  She is learning to say so much, and it is hilarious.  She had a sore on her fingers, and she couldn't say "fingers" just "mingers."  Soon enough "mingers" turned to "mongers" turned to "morngers," so she will tell us, "Owie morngers!"
Soon, the sun set and it was too cold to stay, but we sure love days like this!

So so cute. It looks like Blake's doing pushups in one of the close up pictures. I love it!

What beautiful pictures and beautiful kids. Those ships that go through are incredble. And I love all of addie's mongers.
