Monday we went to our niece, Rachael, softball game. While we were watching the boys were getting restless. Cody had found my ipod and wanted to listen to music. So, I helped him put them on.
Cody is going through a major growth spurt. Before the game we ate at Schlotsky's and he ate an entire pizza and cookie by himself. Whenever he had his ipod on he asked 'loudly' if he could get some money and get some chips at the concession. I gave him $1 in change and let him know that, he had his ipod on and said 'huh' loudly. Then, while still having the ipod on, he gave the lady the money and she asked him what he wanted. Once again, loudly, he says 'huh?'. It was too funny, because if he would have just took the ear piece out he would have heard. And him being so loud and not knowing was hilarious.

Valentine Dinner

We really enjoyed spending Valentine's at home this year! We had decided that we wouldn't do gifts because we know Valentine's Day is a "money making" holiday. Well, Jacob surprised me, by going to one of my favorite store's 'Compass Trading' and buying me a purse. He picked it out himself. He is so thoughtful. I had picked up stuff from the store to have a romantic dinner at home. It was funny
because the whole time we were cooking we flirted and laughed like it was just us two in the house, but we did have our 3 boys. When the dinner was ready to be served, I set the table like it would have been set up at a restaraunt for a party for 2, but then reality set in and went ahea
d and set the boys up also. After dinner and desserts, we put the boys down for bed and cozyed up on the couch with candles lit everywhere and watched a movie. We really were happy that we chose to stay in. We hope that everyone had a wonderful Valentine's Day!

Cody's Valentine party

Yesterday was Cody's valentine party for his class. I was able to attend 10 minutes of it, then I had to relieve another teacher so they could go to there child's party. When I got there Cody was in the middle of making a cute bear that holds a sucker. Then after he finished that project he went and did Valentine Bingo. It was very cute to watch him play. They had bingo
cards and they used heart candy as doppers. After the fun game, he went to the table where they were making hats with heart. That was my cue to leave... A friend who has a son in the same class took some pictures...

T-ball and Laundry
I am happy to say that we signed Cody and Mason both up for T-ball in the Jarrell league. I think Mason was more excited then Cody... Although, while we were signing them up, Little Dribblers was going on and Cody had found a basketball and did really good at dribbling. I think he will be a good basketball player!
Today, I wanted to finally get the boys involved in cleaning and helping out. I set them out on an adventure to find all the blue jeans and to put them in a pile, then all the towels in a pile. It's great because we are going over different colors for the different piles and different textures. This has been a learning experience for them and a help for me.

Twinkle little star
Since we have been off, the boys and I have done a lot of singing. So, while we were driving to meet some friends this evening I got Jacob's blackberry that can capture video of the boys singing twinkle little star. It's about the most adorable thing to see your baby singing!!!
