February Fun!

February flew right by!!  After being sick all of January, February was packed full of things that needed to get done for the basement, to get caught up on life, and to continue baby girl preparations.

It has also been really nice weather a lot of the time and so we have been able to enjoy lots of outside playing, trips to the park, walks outside, windows open all day (thankfully since they painted the basement and the smell was SUPER strong), and lots of sunshine!! I have been loving it!


Here are a bunch of pictures of some of our February fun!

Went to the mall one day with Dylan and Alisha to do some shopping, play and read at Barnes and Noble, and had pretzels for lunch.  Calin loves the train table at Barnes and Noble!

Playing outside in the dirt with his dump truck one evening.

Milk mustache from drinking out of a big boy cup (he is getting really good at not using sippy cups!)
He thought he was pretty funny with a "milk face"!

Swinging outside with cousin Preston.  He loves playing with his cousins!

Calin and I before our Mom and Tot swim class!

Getting ready to go swimming! We took the class in January too, but only made it a couple times when we were both feeling good-so glad we got to do it again in February and go every time!  Calin is getting better and better in the water! He especially loves playing with the floating toys and sinking rings, singing songs (hokey pokey was his favorite), and the coyote slide.  He is good at blowing bubbles but sometimes is stubborn about doing them.  He also does kicks and swimming arms fairly well.  He can go under the water most of the time without getting water in his mouth or nose and the last day of swimming kept putting his own face in!  So proud of this little swimmer!

Hiking the Temple Quarry Hike with Robby's family last weekend.  Robby told me it was mostly flat and only about 1/2 a mile there so a mile total.  It was more like 3 miles which was actually not bad for being 37 weeks pregnant,  except for my one hip and my bladder.  Otherwise it was great to be outside in the sunshine! 

A rare picture of Robby and I.  We need to take more pictures together!

Drink break! 

A perfect little Calin seat! He was carrying a handful of rocks in both hands for the majority of the hike! 

Calin did great and walked most of the way there, but definitely started to get tired on the way back...he fell asleep about 15 minutes before we made it back to the car.  

A fun picnic lunch outside with Dylan and Alisha this last week.
They wanted to play in the rocks and run around instead of eating. 

These two are so fun and I'm so glad we are finding little friends Calin's age he can play with that are close to us!
And I'm glad I am making new friends with their moms too!  We are often able to play outside at our house or Dylan's in the afternoon after their naps and often walk to the park a couple blocks away where they both love going down the slide!

We did our swimming class with Dylan, Alisha, Navie and Natalie.  This is Calin with his two friends on their last day of swimming.  He loves Dylan and Navie, although you couldn't tell from these pictures. 

Playing with toys outside one day while we waited for Dad to get home.  

Calin loves when Dad comes home!! 

Having fun one night before bed.  I sure do love this little boy!! 

Copying moms face! 

February has truly been a whirlwind! I am excited for March to come and to get to meet our new little girl and have the basement finished, but often feel overwhelmed by how much I still feel like I need to get ready!  Guess we better get going on that long list!
