Roses are red, Violets are blue, its Februrary now and I love you!

Valentines are in the air,  and this week we had a lot of fun seeing Grandma and Grandpa on their way to Arizona for the rock and mineral show.  We made some amazing valentines Day cookies, played out in the snow, got our brand new baby gate for the boys outside and used it for the first time, AND we got our bars out of our kitchen!!! YEAH for that!!!!!!!

Natalie will be three is a couple of weeks and I can't believe it.  I am a bit sad a bit excited and bit Im not really sure?  I just look at her and I can't believe my eyes.  She is growing up so fast and so perfectly, but then at the same I look at her and I still a little baby and a brand new preschooler. I guess she is really not a toddler anymore, even though many of the things she does is still toddler-esque.

Natalie talks a bunch more now.  She calls her bottles bottoo instead of of baba and can say Anna from frozen.  She always wants to watch Anna lala which in Natalies translation means watch Anna sing.  She also likes us to pretend to be Oddes (vilans or bad guys) and sing.  She asks for Odde lala lol its so cute!  She can now say seen for green and "reen go"  and red is 'top' she even sticks her little hands out in front of her in a stoping pose.  She just love to sing and dance, although she just sings gibberish (but I love it)  She loves her tricycle still and wants to play with it in the house all the time.  She can sat wain for rain and likes to catch the rain or snow drops on her tongue.  Rain and snow are just both wain, and thunder is still Oddes in the sky playing drums. She is getting more scared of the dark, but is doing a better job of sleeping in her own little bed (or course with mommy in the room with her)  However for the past week or so, she has been sleeping with me in our bed, cause she has developed this bad cough and just sleeps better in the big bed and then she won't wake up her brothers who coincidentally are teething (one year molars…not much fun for anyone)

We are getting ready for her birthday and for Valentines Day which are both coming up.  I have all her presents now in our bedroom hidden or already wrapped (and she knows it) She is getting this awesome kitchen for her birthday and grandma bought her little veggies and plates sets to go with it.  So great!  And she is getting a ton of princess stuff (stuffed ariel and scepter) and a sesames street stuffs (abby cadabby and zoe)


We brought in February 1st with wonderful weather.  Natalie just got her rain coat and jacket int he mail, a little princess fairy theme.  She was so excited to get it she wanted to put it right on and take it out for a spin.  She is so cute as is the outfit!







Fort play!

All set up with the couch cushions even on the floor

It was getting a little close to nap time as you can see

lunch amongst the fort and in our princess skirt

She loves watching strawberry shortcakes berry bitty adventures!


That night Natalie decided to play hairdresser and do mommies hair. Here is the end product!




First time using our new baby gate out side.  Very happy with it!














Natalie playing for the first time in her brand new fairy rain boots

She got into my expensive lipstick…the joys of toddlers!















At least someone looks beautiful! 

















Making her first Valentines Day cookies.  I decided to make cookies instead of cards, cause I thought they would be fun to make and decorate and then even more fun to eat!!! I was right!!!

Doing a great job baby!

  













Some of Natalies cookies, and some of mommies cookies.  Looking good though!

Tuesday play group with ward mommies and Natalie having fun on a skooter even though use had no idea how to use it and it kept falling over on her.  She was getting frustrated by the end, but still wanted to play with it.  We had just gotten back from the kids first Dentist appointment, which went wonderfully!  Natalie has beautiful teeth, no cavities and the boys as well!  The boys got little cars and Natalie got a pink pony which she LOVES!!!
