February 2013

So it's mid- February and I just realized I need to post! Things have been so busy lately. The kids are getting easier and easier to take out and with that I feel like they have gone so many new places.

In January I had the wonderful opportunity to get away for the weekend to Florida to visit my Uncle Tommy and Grange. Sally and I had a great relaxing time. No husbands, no kids and no responsibilities!! We just hung out by the pool with some great company, good food and good drinks! We are counting down the days till we go again next year!

Recently, Mike & I took the kids to the circus. They were so good! They sat for about 2 hours and watched the show. Lots of clapping and excitement! They loved the elephants! I also took the kids to see Elmo at a little play place this weekend and both Jack & Ellie could not get enough! They gave lots of hugs!!

The kids have been having play dates with my girlfriends and have really enjoyed themselves. We have been hanging out with our neighbors a lot more now and the kids play so well together. The kids next store are 4 &5 but they play really nice with Jack & Ellie. I am so happy we have such great neighbors!

I took the kids to the Delran Fire House yesterday to see the fire trucks- thanks to Dan Bard! The kids had such a great time! They can't stop talking about the fire trucks!

They also got Finding Nemo for Christmas from Laura & Mark and they watch it almost every day! It's great for Mike & I because they sit still for a little while- Jack is so into it- it is the cutest thing.

Lets hope I can keep this monthly posting up!
