Valentines and February Madness

Valentines has come and gone! My cute kiddo's had a great day at school. They were able to give their valentines and after school they all sat on the living room floor looking at their cards and eating candy. Lucky for Sidney, Kaleigh and Hagen were very generous with their candy since she didn't get any valentines from friends.

We had a little dinner as a family and when I set the table I put the kids valentines on their plate. Sidney and Kaleigh both got new earrings. Sidney got flower earring and Kaleigh got peace sign earring, which she has worn everyday since. Hagen finally got a Webkinz that is a black bear. He loves it and is so excited to play webkinz when he comes home from school. Little Calvin got a shark Pillow Pet. He had a blast rolling around on the floor and hugging it. I don't think that he necessarily likes sleeping with it.
My cute Kaleigh got her hair cut. It was starting to get long, but straggly and not so healthy. So Kaleigh and mom went to Fantastic Sams and she got her hair washed (which, she thought was super cool), then cut. It is really cute. After the haircut we went to McDonalds and had a little dinner. It was a fun outing for the both of us.


We are working on the walking thing. Calvin will walk if he is holding someones hands. But given the choice he would gladly drop to his knees and crawl or be carried. In 10 days he will be one, so hopefully he decides that he wants to start walking soon.


It is very normal for Calvin to fall asleep in his high chair. Since I work a graveyard shift I try to get a little shut eye in the morning. I will sleep on the couch while Calvin and Sid play and by 11 am Calvin is ready for a short snooze. He will crawl up with me and sleep for 30 minutes. Then he is good and ready to go. I have been trying to get him to just take one long nap. But when I cut out the thirty minute snooze this is the result at lunch time. Usually he only half his food eaten and most the the time his eyes are closed while he is shoving food in his mouth. One day I am going to video this. It is pretty funny.


You can't see Calvin's face but he is covered in yogurt. Sid likes to share her food when she is eating. I missed the great camera shot. This is the picture I was able to get, but originally when I walked in the kitchen they were both under the table and Calvin was laying on his back with both feet straight in the air while Sid is feeding him yogurt.
