February


Each month with these kiddos gets better and better!  We had a fantastic February!


Snow Much Fun!

We finally got snow!! (and a lot of it!!!  Woohoo!!)
The kids have had a blast playing in the snow this month.  We have had some pretty happy snow bunnies!










"Do you want to build a snowman?"  These reds worked really hard to create our very first snowman on Pope Ave!


We had SO much fun sledding in Bryan Park with lots of friends!









"Mommy.  I want to sketch this pretty snowy morning!"  Me too baby girl. 

After the fourth snow day, it was time for Virtual Learning!



February Fun with Friends








Lainey was so excited to have her bestie from preschool and St. Catherine's (Alexa) over for a sleepover!  These two picked up right where they left off :)
















After 20 Valentine's Days and 4 kids, this stud muffin still makes me swoon! We are thoroughly enjoying Hailey's babysitting service!  



The Trampoline is Still Popular!














School Days

"Mommy!  We're twinsies!" (Caleb and his BFF Rylan)



Caleb brought his Curious George and some of his books to school to share with his friends. 






Hailey worked hard on her 5th grade invention project.  




Caleb was a very good actor for Hailey's presidential video report on James K. Polk. 


Lainey was very proud of her 3rd grade constellation project. 

 















Literature Day is always a super fun day! The girls dressed as a character from a book they read this year.  

Anna from "A New Coat for Anna."

Fern from "Charlotte's Web."

Frog from "Frog and Toad." This was Hailey's last Literature Day, so she was able to dress as any character from any book she has read at Veritas.  Of course she found a way to be a frog!


Superbowl Fun

We were a little confused about who was playing ;)







More Gardner Family Bonding









Cavity Free Kids! 



We take up an entire wing when it's checkup time! (I couldn't even get Hailey in the fame!)



My Loves

I've said it a million times, and I'm sure I'll say it five million more, but I'm so thankful that they have each other!






Worst case of bedhead ever!









This Little Boy of Mine

The cutest alarm clock ever!!!

They daily emptying of the pockets can be interesting to say the least!




Found this little boy on the counter "helping" with the cleanup after his sisters baked brownies.  

He is always the first one to find Waldo, without fail!





Please time, slow down. 




Jaci and Janana's Baptism

It was a special day celebrating Jacalyn and Joanna's Baptism.  Doug is Jaci's Godfather (along with Emily's sister Molly), which made it even more special. 







"No Buddy, you can't go swimming..."

Our sweet Goddaughter. 




Valentine's Day

This Valentine's Day was filled with homemade treats, homemade board games and extra warm snuggles on an icy winter day.  It was perfect!


Ready to spread the love at school!





Love, love LOVE that my girls get Valentine's like this from their teachers!!!!


Even the Kinard/Coleman fairy garden was feeling the love!






My little bakers were busy!

The official taste tester approved!

Hailey worked really hard on a family Valentine's Day board game!  We had so much fun playing it.   


Waiting for their treats from Mommy and Daddy. 







 
Daddy/Big Girls Ski Day











Springing into March With Some Big Plans!

We are counting down the days until our little guy's first trip to Disney with his sister Mouseketeers!
