I have to begin by thanking everyone who reached out to me after last month's post. I like to be emotionally raw here because this blog is something we love to look back on and I hope the kids will be able to do the same. I want to remember the good, the bad, and the ugly! I have this blog printed in book form once a year as well to have and it's very special to us. We love you all!
February was the most laid back month of this year....haha, and only the 2nd month of the year, at that. Mommy got away for a short girls' reunion with college buddies, we had some good quality family time, Anna spent more time in time out than probably most 18 month olds, we celebrated the Olympics beginning, and celebrated others! Check out the videos @ the end...Anna in rare form.
Anna Ruth turned 18 months this month!! Here are some comparison pictures:
Anna @ 18 months

Grace @ 18 monhts
Wesley @ 18 months
*Clearly they had a lot more hair than Anna...straight or curly? We shall see!
Family time @ Kalideium North (I think)
Friday is Family Movie Night!
Me: "Good girl Anna, stay on your bottom on the bench"
I turn away for a second
Me: "Anna Ruth, no ma'am!"
...and she proceeds to climb on the table. That's Anna for you!
Anna got sick one afternoon and fortunately it didn't turn into anything worse, but she was still quarantined to her bed. Sissy to the rescue with a book! Anna was so MAD...can you tell? Grateful she healed quickly!
A sweet note from one of Grace's friends
Olympic games ready! I promised them they could watch the opening ceremony with me. WHY?? Why did I promise that? Lesson learned...the opening ceremony is longer than a Disney movie and way past bed time.
Cuties
