School Days

Our kids love school! No, really, they LOVE school. This morning over waffles Lauren asked if it was a school day. We replied no, that it was a stay home day. Rob said, "After one more sleep, then it will be a school day." Lauren blurted out, "I'm ready for bed!" Cute :-)

Batmen

Jack and Rob both went for their Batman jammies last night without realizing the other was doing the same! Like twins! To top it off, Rob fell asleep in Jack's bed after reading his bedtime story. They are truly two peas in a pod. It is so true that a woman should marry a man who she would be proud to have a son exactly like. Glad I picked a good one because the similarities are crazy!!

Keeping It Simple

Rob and I tend to not get caught up in the hype of Valentine's Day. This year I made dinner at home with the kids, typical Thursday. However, I did receive a gorgeous bouquet of red roses and we opened a wonderful bottle of wine. So grateful to have found a man who appreciates the comfort of home, the importance of family time and the joy of simplicity.

ABCDelicious

Jack hates soup. HATES it! I have tried every possible type. Tonight I was prepared for our typical battle when he SHOCKED me! I got some alphabet pasta on a whim (and clearance-ha!) so I threw it in. The teacher in me can't pass up an opportunity to push letters and numbers. He was down right excited for chicken and veggie soup! Could've knocked me over with a feather. Happy kid, happy mom!

Little Drummer Girl

She likes to ROCK! Folgers or Quaker oat cans make great drums. Throw in a couple of wooden spoons and we have a full concert on our hands. This was while I tried to make pancakes this morning. Cute!
