February Fabulousness

We escaped winter for a few days and went to St. George.  We went to our little fun center there, and after turning my back to Lindsay for a moment, I found her here

Image
 Becca actually won the jackpot here.  I think it was 500 tickets!

Celebrating Valentine's Day.  Dad gave cards, balloons, and necklaces to the girls

 Dad was able to come to the aquarium with us for the first time!

Image
 How I found Lindsay...that can't be comfortable!
Image
 Jeff's cousin, Nicole, was an intern at the Utah State Capitol for Senator Okerlund.  I had always wanted to visit the building and she suggested we visit her.  It was all good until Becca took a Lifesaver off the Senators desk, started choking on the couch, and threw it (and breakfast) up on the couch.  Senator was in a meeting, Nicole had stepped out of the room, and I had no diaper bag or way to clean it up.  Becca's jacket got sacrificed.  Oh I'll never forget that day!  I hate Lifesavers!

2015, baby! January....

Alayna lost her first tooth! She had been a shark tooth for a couple of months and the baby tooth finally came out.  Her tooth fairy let her keep it because it was her first, and she got 2 gold coins!
Image
Becca was thrilled to start her own dance classes!

The Utah Auto Expo with Keith, Stacia, Em, and Austin

Alayna had a hot chocolate stand at our house with her friend Luke.  It was a huge success and they had a great turnout.  People even left tips!
Image

Image

Image
 We went to the Ogden Treehouse Museum.  This was taken minutes before I lost Becca and for the first time had to have employees searching for my child.  Thankfully we found her coloring upstairs from where I was.

 Coloring in the snow....I'm learning to embrace the cold white stuff

 Alayna did a report on Switzerland in her Kindergarten class.  Every child was to report on a country they have some relation to.  Grandma helped give Alayna ideas and things to show the class.  Here she is wearing Liederhosen

 Becca plays dressup at least once a day and does regular outfit changes.  Makes for lots of laundry for mom!
