Climbing up the Walls

Lily and Jack want to send out special happy birthday wishes to Bubbie who celebrates her birthday on Valentine's day!

The kids had lots of Valentine celebrations. On Friday, Lily had her classroom party which included an exchange of Valentines and a party with necklace beading, hat making, and dancing. Today Jack celebrated at his school with a fun party. He exchanged Valentines and he wrote his name on all of the Valentines he gave to his friends - he has been working really hard on the letter "J." Grandma Gail took the kids to special Valentines dinner at Chick-Fil-A where there was a magician, crazy time on the playground, and of course the cow made an appearance.

Over the weekend the kids had their last ice skating lesson, both of them had amazing improvement. Lily is now gliding and is working on skating backwards, and Jack is taking little steps on his own and can get up on his own. Lily is excited for another session of ice skating especially because she has her first ice skating birthday party to go to in a few weeks, and Jack wants to take a little break. ;)

After ice skating, we visited with Mom's college friends - Kristen, Erin and Holly, and respective husbands and kids - Mark, Rob, Holden, Brooke, and Andersen. The kids had a lot of fun, thanks for hosting Erin and Rob!

On Sunday, Lily went to a duckpin bowling birthday party, she had lots of fun. Otherwise, we just hung around the house, as it was freezing outside!

We were picture negligent this weekend but here are a couple to hold you over to next week.
