I Heart Naptime

Boy, do I love naptime. Especially on days like today.

Lincoln has been a bit of a booger today. A bit more challenging than his usual happy, go-lucky self. And I am a bit more tired than usual. And freaking sore from yoga--so my patientce is... well, it kinda sucks.

But then I just saw these, and I giggled.

Because I just love this guy!

He is just such a rad little dude.

And even though I want him to sleep for a long while still, I kinda can't wait until he gets up.

My Little Loves (And a mighty BIG one too)

Thanking my lucky stars for these 3 on this Valentine night.




True story-

When I was little, I had a short list of things I wanted in my husband someday.

Here are the 3 things, in no particular order:
1. Nice smile
2. Very, very tall
3. Looks mighty fine in a baseball cap

What can I say, I'm an easy-going gal. I can honestly say that my dreams have come true. (See the above list!)

Happy Valentines Day Brian. Without you, the other 2 little (turd) valentines would cease to exist.

I love you.

A. (freaking!) Lot.

TWO!

These 2 are no longer babies.



Oh, they will always be our babies, but now--now they are TWO. That's right folks, on February 3rd these turds entered terrible two-ville. But I'm not so convinced it's terrible. Don't get me wrong, we have seen some tantrums, (even some simultaneous ones), the testing of boundaries is in full effect and the tag-teaming has begun. But I am going to be renaming it the Tiresome Twos. So yeah--there are some challenging, scratch that, extremely challenging moments. However, the fun moments far, far outweigh the others. Brian and I are convinced this is one of the most exciting times in our lives, and we are committed to enjoying it all.

So we had ourselves a little party. A little Valentine party. Our families, a couple of friends and lots of love and laughter. At one point our friends and I were looking at our 7 kids between and us and thought, 'Were did all these kids come from?'

Here is how our little party went down.














Happy birthday Lila Pearl + Lincoln. Your daddy and I love you so very much. February 3rd will always be one of the most special days to us. It's the day we became a family afterall!
