Happy Valentine's Day!

One day late...but we are still sending our love to all of our friends and family.
So now Daryl has two women in his life to shower with love.
Our wonderful children spoiled us by both falling asleep by 8:30 last night, we think maybe they planned it!

Thanks Grandma

Thank you to Grandma for knitting me this beautiful sweater. I love it!

Snow Day in NYC

We got about a foot of beautiful white snow yesterday. We went out to play in it, along with Blake's girlfriend, Gabi. These were all at a neighborhood playground in a basketball court. Addie was sound asleep through it all in the stroller nearby.

Dont be worried, the pink boots were just borrowed, they are not ours! Daddy questioned this as soon as we showed him the pictures.

ABC's Extended Version

I know that I already posted a video very similar to this, but in this one you get to hear the entire ABC's several times, plus watch Blake fall and jump around on the bed. Poor little Addie is just along for the ride.

As I am posting this, Blake sees it and runs into our room to go reenact it! He hops up onto the bed, starts jumping, then gets off real quick, saying, "me need my hat, like picture" and runs to get his hat, so the scenario will now be the same!

Happy 2 Month Birthday

Little Addie is already two months old, wow! Just noticed that she is starting to roll onto her side. Here is a picture to show you, but kind of a weird angle. Nonetheless, she is growing more and more each day and getting sweeter by the minute.

Happy 2 month birthday to our baby girl!

So Happy!

Look at this great smile that Daddy captured last night. We love her so much!

Friends & Sleeping

I am so happy to share with you how well my baby girl has been sleeping!!! For the past several nights, she has slept 5-7 hours straight each night and is still sleeping bunches during the day too. This is so wonderful to be happening so quickly!

Also, my best friends, Brook and Colleen, from high school came to visit. Even though it was absolutely frigid outside, we still had a fantastic time together inside. Lots of quality time with the little ones. Thanks girls!

Candy

Our conversation this afternoon...we were looking at a box of wipes and there is a picture of a mom holding a baby.
Blake said, "Mommy."
I said "Is that your mommy?"
Blake responded, "No, me mommy right here." (pointing to me)
I said, "Awe, that makes me so happy, thank you." So he says it again and I smile.
Then he said, "Candy?"
I laughed hard and said, "Oh, you think since you made mommy happy, that you deserve candy?"
And predictably, he responded with, "Yes!"
So I caved and gave into my adorable little man, but keep in mind that "candy" is a pack of about 6 bite-sized gummy, fruit snacks...but Blake thinks they are heaven!

We then proceeded to go to the cleaners about 5 minutes later and the lady behind the counter handed Blake his first lollipop, which he thought was oh so delicious!

What a lucky little stinker!!!

Just following directions

Blake is yet again smothering his baby sister with kisses, but this time he is just doing what the shirt says! Notice she is sitting up on the couch, what a big girl.
