First part of February

Can't believe it is already mid-February... just two more months until we need to be in Hawaii, how crazy is that? Time is flying by a little too fast for my liking.

We're still waiting on official orders so we haven't bought plane tickets or finalized our CA trip plans. Hopefully in the next week we get them. 

The kids are doing good. Rose is starting to walk a little more and Isaac got a haircut that makes him look like a 3yr old, which is good since his birthday is next Friday (Oh my God! his birthday is next Friday!).

Here are some pictures from the last few weeks:

 Look at those pretty eyes

Playing with her brothers dump truck

Munching on corn

I told him to put his pants on and he put them on legs first haha

Laying on her pillow

 Her hair is getting long! Still not long enough to really
do anything with though, and very fine too. 

 His hair is long too

 Playing/chewing on a ball. Silly girl

 Playing with toys... and making a mess

Pretty

 On Valentines Day <3 p="">

 Showing off her new outfit from Mr. and Mrs. B.

SUCH a difference! 

And here are a few videos of the kiddos :)
















This weekend we are heading up to Pennsylvania to celebrate both Isaac and Isabella's birthdays at a combined birthday party. Should be fun! I'll (try to) post pictures next week or the week after, after Isaac's birthday party here in Maryland.

Grandparents and Museums

The kids have been getting a healthy dose of grandparents these past few weeks. Last Friday to Tuesday, Grandpa Black (Terry) and Grandma Cindy came to visit. We gave them a jam-packed long weekend, with trips to DC to see some museums and then to the Air and Space Museum in Virginia.

On Saturday (19th), went to DC:

 Isaac and Rose ready to see some neat stuff

On Sunday, Terry and I took Isaac to Kinder Farms where we met up with the Lings and the kids played for a bit before they came over for dinner at our place.

 Isaac and Noah playing Candyland 
(Isaac was more interested in the cards
 and I basically played for him, but they still had fun)

 Liam, Rose, and Theo under the table

Rose was licking the floor, like how Theo was

On Monday we went to Isaac's favorite place, the Air and Space Museum in Virginia. 

 Space shuttle!


 On Tuesday, Isaac got really sick and complained about his ears hurting. I took him to urgent care where he had a 103.6 fever and diagnosed with ear infections in both ears. They gave him meds and a popsicle while there and the fever went down a good amount and he was back to running around. This pic was taken when we were waiting for the doctor. 

 Take notice of all the food under her chin.. saving for later??

 Smiling for me

Smiling for me

 Mmmm oatmeal with raisins!

 Yum yum yum!

Love your crazy hair this morning, Ikey 


 Oh ya, we got snow! Not too much, but just 
enough to toss the kids outside for some pictures 
before they had enough


 Touching snow for the first time


 What IS this cold stuff???


 He wanted to make footprints in the snow


 She's had enough

Back in side, nice and warm

 Hi mommy!

 Rose watching Isaac and Isaac looking back... 
that's actually his reflection. Pretty neat!

On the 17th, Matt and I celebrated our 4yr anniversary. 
He got me pearl earrings and necklace :)

And here are two videos

This is a common occurrence at our house at dinner time: 
throwing a fit and not wanting to eat. 
Right after I got done filming, he started 
eating and was fine. Toddlers, oi! 

She's getting better at walking, if only she will let go, I am sure she can do it!

That's all for now! Grandma Deb is here visiting us this weekend while Matt went on a camping trip with all the men. Not many pictures though since we're just hanging out...been too cold out to really do anything fun, plus the kids both have coughs, Isaac has his ear infection, and I have a cold now too.
