February Highlights

And in the title lies the problem. February doesn't really have any highlights. It's cold outside. Holidays are over. (Valentine's Day doesn't really count, because shouldn't you love your spouse EVERY day?) Spring seems very far away. So every morning, I open the curtains and look out at the dreary sky and anticipate what is coming.....

And we actually have more to anticipate than just spring. Baby #4 is on the way, due end of September/beginning of October. The boys are thrilled. Sophia is confused about why there is a baby in mommy's tummy and she can't see it. Eric is excited and proud. I'm often feeling a little under the weather and so doing less cooking and more sleeping. :) I'm also anxious to find a house for our growing family before we split the seams of our 2 bedroom duplex!

Please, spring, come quickly! We need your warm days and sunshine!

On a side note, the boys new favorite evening activity is to act out a Proverb. Eric chooses a Proverb and then the boys think of a way to act it out. They perform it for me and I try to guess what the Proverb is. They love it! And they're pretty good actors (although I can't imagine where they would get a talent like that). :)
