Happy Valentines Day!

Wills wanted to give his teachers at school (Ms. Shari and Ms. Hutchins) one thing and one thing only - "heart shaped cookies with red sprinkles". We had a lot of fun making them together on Sunday. He gave all of his friends at school Batman valentines with hershey kisses.

Unfortunately, we got a call from school on Monday that Wills had a fever of 101.7, so he spent the next few days home sick. Whatever it was, it was contagious, because Tim got it too. Poor guys...

Tummy Time and Cuddling

Jules is getting better and better at tummy time - she'll do it for about 7 or 8 minutes before she starts to cry. She rolled over for the first time on Friday - I had her on her stomach, I looked away, and when I looked back 3 seconds later, she was on her back! I can't believe I missed it!

Today when we got home, the only thing Jules seemed to want was her Daddy. Check out how sweet she and Tim look in these pictures - she was so content with him. They ended up taking a little snooze together before her bath.

What's Wills Up To These Days?

Just about everything! If he is not asking "why?"..."but why?"..."but, Mommy, why?", then he is:

• dancing around
• screeching and squealing
• trying to make his baby sister laugh
• doing his favorite dinosaur floor puzzle
• making me or Tim do his favorite dinosaur puzzle
• riding his "motorcycle" (which is really his tricycle)
• playing fireman (I usually have to drive the invisible pumper truck behind him and go "woo-oo, woo-oo, woo-oo" while he sings "woo-oo, ding-dong, woo-oo, ding-dong"
• asking for newnies (fig newtons) and juice
• asking to watch his favorite shows (Beranstein Bears, Fireman Sam, Chuggington, Special Agent Oso, Sam I Am)

Whew! Every day is an adventure with him. He is so darn sweet.

Aquarium with Grandma and Grandpa!

Grandma and Grandpa were here last weekend, and we had a great visit! We took the kids to the aquarium on Saturday morning, and Wills loved it! He said his favorite part was the sharks, but I think his favorite thing was the huge fish tank with divers inside.

Jules is 4 months old!

Jules had her 4 month appointment last week, and she is growing like a weed! Here are here stats:

Weight - 14.12 lbs (80th percentile)

Height - 26 inches (>95th percentile)

Head - 16.5 inches (75th percentile)

Dr. Gadea said that Jules looks great. She is holding her head up high, was just about to roll over (which she has since done!), and bringing her hands together. She is reaching for things, and smiling and laughing like everything is just hilarious. I have to say, she is the most beautiful little girl in the world!
