February: Things I want to remember

How true the saying is that you are only a stomach flu away from your goal weight.

The liberating feeling of getting out with the girls finally, after the endless sickness.

Setting up the water and sand table for the girls to play, and both girls being blissfully entertained for a whole hour while I sat back and soaked up some sun.



My "Stage Mom" moment with the MVIP nurse during her 1 year assessment of Ava. I was so proud of showing off what Ava could do, I became a little over the top boastful. Yay Ava!

Alyssa letting her cousin Sophia borrow her Super Girl PJs, and every time Sophia wears them she has to pretend she's saving the world.

Ava deciding that instead of progressing to the next obvious step of walking, to trade in her commando crawl for the traditional crawl, and being content with that for now.

The first fire in the fireplace (since Ava was born) on a bone-chilling night that ended the amazing weather we were having.

Not to take allergy medicine with a cup of coffee on an empty stomach unless you want to feel like a tweaker the whole day.

How lucky we are that Rick only ended up with 12 stitches on his face after removing the skin cancer. Boy could it have been worse!

No matter how many toys and projects you have to entertain a child, the most simple thing like changing bedding can turn into a whole morning of entertainment.
