Coley, you built this Lego aircraft all by yourself. Very focused and creative when it comes to legos....writing homework,not so much.
Love you babes!

Lobsters

Darling,
We helped Grandpa celebrate his retirement after 38 years of government service.

You ordered lobster and you even got to hold one. You were sooo excited.

Congratulations! Watch out route 66, the mustang's a coming'.

Hands

Darling,

Dad snapped this shot of you. He sent another one with your hand up by your face and he let me in on a little secret. You have his hands. You are so much of your father, from your skin, to your hands, to your BIG personality.

I love you baby.

Mom

Happy New Year Coley!

Love,

Here is what we did this weekend:

Friday night: Movie Night at Emerald Elementary. They set up in the old gym, featured "How to Train Your Dragon", dished up ice cream and popcorn. You and Carson hung out and I actually watched the movie...even though we'd already seen it.

Saturday DAY: puzzles, IKEA, lunch, bikes and parks. We started our morning off by completing two puzzles you got for x-mas. Then, we took Grandma to breakfast at Ikea //kind of yucky food//and then met up with Uncle D and crew and ALMOST made it through the whole store but didn't quite get there because you know who had a meltdown. I'll give you a hint, it wasn't me. We'll go again Grandma.

Then, we all headed to lunch at Red Robin's. You, Ellie, and Parker sort of ate food but were mostly interested in the video games. Ellie and Parker will pretty much follow you anywhere. Thanks for lunch Uncle D and Auntie V.

Next up was a good bike ride and park fun with the Pope's and then it was time for.....

Saturday NIGHT: Sleepover with Sofia at the our place!! We picked up Sofia, ordered some pizza, and you two played for four hours before it was time for lights out, include having a dance party that I recorded. Watch it here.

SUNDAY: Sofia-time, movie-time, library-time, bath-time, bed-time. The morning was filled with more play with Fia for another five hours. After we dropped her off, we took a walk and it was CHILLY. So we decided to stay inside and watch Super 8. Thanks Dad for the great movie! Then, we were off to the library. You LOVE the science room. Then, we had some quiet time and you read some of your new books. Bath time and then Bed time.

I love you soooo much Monkey. We had a great weekend.
I miss you tonight.
Big hugs,
Mommy
