February

Real, boring life really begins in February.  Holidays are over.  Families are all back at home.  No holidays in sight.  So we must find ways to entertain ourselves.  

Enter: cowboy hat

I told you you might see this pop up more than once!

On Valentine's Day we decorated sugar cookies...and ate our weight in them.  Yummy!  Neither Chase nor I are huge romantics, and our anniversary is 4 days after Valentine's Day, so it's kind of a holiday that comes and goes without much fanfare.  Which is fine with me!  Give me a few sugar cookies (and maybe some flowers) and I'm good!

Harper appreciates this, too.

 My valentines

Harper has started getting excited about my shoes.  I thought this was quite the outfit she found one morning!

Boy is this girl fun!!  She's a busy 2-year-old, but is really quite well behaved (knock on wood) and she makes me laugh constantly!  Her speech has really taken off and I love that she can tell me what she wants, what she doesn't (quite loudly), and it's almost scary that she copies most of what we say.
