Something New

About a month ago, Lily's friend told her about girl scouts and Lily really wanted to do it.  Well, I contacted the Girl Scout Council here and they directed me to a great Daisy troop that meets at the local elementary school just up the street from my house.  We went for Lily's first troop meeting and another girl from Lily's class was in the troop.  She was soo excited to already have one friend.  She got in just in time to sell come cookies for a couple weeks and has sold 115 boxes!  Thanks to all our friends and family that helped support her troop.
Caleb fell face-first on the tile last week.  It was right at bed time and he calmed down quickly and wanted to go to bed so off he went.  Well, when he woke up in the morning his whole forehead and upper nose area was swollen.  It looked just awful.  My friend said it reminded her of a Star Trek character.  Seriously, the pictures don't show how swollen it was between his eyes.  He actually had some older bruising on his forehead from a bad bonk to the fireplace a few days before, but that just made it all look worse.  A day or two later his eyes/nose area started showing the bruises and he had two little black eyes for a week.  Poor clumsy Caleb!
The kids made a little mud pond on Saturday to play in.
Valentine's Day dinner... Caleb lovin' the jello!
See my black eyes?
Tommy made us a delicious Filet Mignon wrapped in bacon and the most amazing potatoes and yummy bread.  Yum Yum.  I'm thankful he's my sweetheart!  (just wish he made dinner like this every week!)
Here's Caleb this morning, walking around with Isaac's hat on...
He loved it and would get mad if he couldn't get it to go back on right.
He is also a little obsessed with shoes lately and tries to put any on that he finds.
