Lucy and I went out for breakfast this morning while my car was getting an inspection sticker. One of her favorite stories to tell is about how I got pulled over last year for having an expired sticker. This kid loves the diner!
The sign next to her says it all:
Look who got braces and a haircut!!
She’s a new woman!
I haven’t been taking too many pictures these past few weeks. I think the kids were starting to miss seeing me with the phone and camera in my hand because they started taking pictures themselves. 
Sometimes I wonder what she’s thinking about. In this next picture she said to me “Mom take a picture of me with this serious face”
She looks so serious in those bunny ears!
Most of the pictures are of Lucy. She is the one who is with me 100% of the time. Plus, she’s too cute not to photograph!
I decorated the kitchen last night so the girls could wake up to a sweet Valentine’s Day treat:
They had a half day of school today so I got to spend the day with the 5 sweetest girls I know:
How lucky am I?
In other news, I’m trying to teach Lucy that it is not ok for her to answer the phone. Even though it’s funny when she tells the telemarketers “duh, my dad’s at work”, I’ve been missing all kinds of phone calls. She is just too quick for me! Plus, if she’s upstairs I just don’t have a chance! She did make me a sweet Valentine’s day card so I can’t be too upset.
Happy Valentine’s Day!
It might be cold but it sure is pretty!! 
I guess it can be pretty fun for those 12 and under too!
My children have a strange fascination with coconuts. We went to Trader Joe’s this morning and Chloe had to have a bag of Coconut Chips. They are delish!! Emma got to thinking about regular coconuts and how much fun we all have when we buy one. Strange, huh? 
Seriously, can you sense the excitement?
I prefer the coconut chips but I think the pictures would be less exciting 🙂
Let the clean up begin!!
I’ve been complaining about winter all season so I’m trying to put a positive spin on February by calling it Love Month. Just go with it! I’m trying here!
This morning Lucy and I went to the library to pick out some Valentine’s Day books:
After the library we stopped to pick up some heart shaped donuts:
Yum!!
Yesterday we went to HomeGoods, The Party Store and Joanne’s Fabric to pick up some Valentine’s Day decorations. We’re ready to have a great month!!
Dear Mr. Postman,
I would like to ask you to please stop delivering things like this to my mailbox:
Sincerely,
A mother not ready for the next phase.
I was looking through my iphotos earlier and found Chloe’s Disney pictures. She did a really good job capturing some shots. Maybe a future photographer?
I love this one she took from the plane:
Her and Lucy on the Magical Express:
The Epcot Christmas tree:
One of our very favorite places in Epcot:
Cinderella Castle in the fog:
The party that Disney threw for us on our very last day:
They begged us not to leave!! “Just one more day” they chanted as we exited the park…….
Maybe that was just Jon chanting…..
But unfortunately the Magical Express was waiting to take us back to the airport: (great job,Chloe)
