indoor garden

I think we all have spring fever at our house. To remedy this we planted some herbs for the windowseal. Can you guess what everything is? Hint:(the plants in the box on the right are all the same.) Oh, and you would be really good if you know the ones that haven't come up yet!

Pictures for Grandma and Grandpa
















grab the camera

I take a lot of pictures, and I'm usually glad I do.

Saturday we woke up to a backyard full of snow. Justin and Sophia had a great time using most of it to build a snow fort.




Our cat keeps us entertained!








waffle

This was my attempt at making a fun Valentine's Day for Sophia. I made her a heart shaped (sort of) waffle. Believe it or not, it had chopped fresh strawberries and red food coloring in it. She ate one little square, and that was it. Maybe when she is older, she will appreciate these things more.

February...so far

Sophia has a habit of twisting her hair with her finger. She has gotten it stuck a few times, and made some very large knots in her hair. Her hair still looked fine after a few, but it came to the point where I HAD to cut it. I didn't want too.... You can see the chunk on the left in the above picture.
Of course she is still cute with short hair :") It's been a few weeks, and so far no knots that I have had to cut.


It was Justin's B-day recently. We wanted to enjoy some warm weather, but it was raining, so we went ice skating. It was Sophia's first time. She had sooooo much fun.

She leaned back the whole time. Too bad they didn't have walkers or something for her to hold on to.



Sophia talked on the phone with G&G for at least half an hour. It was dang cute!

I got Valentine's flowers early. It was so fun to be surprised. Justin ordered them from ProFlowers, and they came right to our door. He has a tradition of getting Sophia flowers too. He took her to the store today, and let her choose the ones she wanted. She chose pink roses.



not an option

I told Sophia to pick some socks to wear. She picked out a pair of white socks and a too small Easter egg sock that was missing its mate.
mommy: "which socks do you want?"
Sophia (grabbing the single sock): "this"
mommy: "this sock is not an option, lets wear these."
Sophia: "I want option"
