Our Frogs

I started knitting this year, and am so excited about 3 whole completed projects. My first project was supposed to be a pink scarf for Bella...it ended up being a wide pink purse for Bella. I got a little carried away with the width, and ran out of yarn with a scarf that was only about 2 feet long.

My second project was a frog hat for Logan. Besides being a little tight, he loves it. That went over so well that I decided to make a similar hat for Austin. Austin's hat fits Brian. Sizing is not as easy as I thought!

Now I'm trying a Bunny Boing Hat for Bella... we'll see.

Staying Always

The other evening during dinner, the children and I were discussing growing up. This is a topic that they seem to be very concerned about. We discussed where Momma and Daddy would live, and what the children wanted to do. I mentioned that the children may all decide to move into their own homes and that Daddy and I would come visit them often. They all ALL teared up and became very emotional. My babies!

Yesterday, Logan let me know that he is going to be a Skateboarder Dude when he becomes a teenager, and that he would still be living with us. : ) Thank goodness. He wants me to be a Skateboarder too though....hmmmm.

Another cute moment -- We had a movie night on Friday and watched Homeward Bound, The Incredible Journey. The children all became very concerned for Sassy (the cat), and Shadow (the older dog). It was an emotional movie for them! Thankfully, it ended happy (good job Disney)!

Daddy Daughter Dance

Bella and Brian went to a Daddy Daughter Dance at our church a week before Valentine's Day. Bella was so excited to wear a red dress for Valentine's Day. She was practicing for her date with Daddy a week before the dance - she placed her napkin on her lap for dinner, and practiced being very (extra) polite. It was too cute!!
