Sweetheart Party 2014

Similar to the Christmas party, the kids school does a fun sweetheart dance each year.  This year it was super cold and drizzly so the turnout wasn't great, but we made it a fun girls' night nonetheless.  Gigi even joined us!  Lofton had her face painted "like a glittery princess", decorated (and quickly devoured) cookies, took funny pictures, and danced with her mama.  This little one stole my heart almost 4 years ago and continues to do so with each sweet smile.  xoxoxo baby girl.

Daddy/Daughter Dance 2014

We are so blessed to live in a suburb full children and devoted daddies.  As such, the city puts on an annual daddy/daughter dance and we decided that 3 was the perfect age to give it a shot.  The daddies and girls all met over here for some pics, they carpooled to the dance, and then to buca di beppo for dinner.  there was a lot of dancing and cookies (7 per Lofton although Dewey will not confirm this number) and we will definitely be doing this again next year.
My little princess...

EWM-9 months

Everett turned 9 months on 1/19/14 and he is just getting too old for this mama.  He did stay still and seem little for awhile, but right on cue he began army crawling and pushing to a sitting position right at his 9 month bday.  He is holding steady at 2 teeth, 3 meals, and 4 bottles.  He has started puffs but is not a huge fan of table food texture quite yet.  Remains in size 3 diapers and fits mostly into 6-9month clothing and a size 2 shoe.  And the biggest news.....he sleeps!!
He was finally healthy and home for a long enough period to cry it out :(  it took all of one night and we were good to go...until the next ear infection that is.
He has turned into a total daddy's boy and will leap into his arms any chance he can.
Love you baby boy!
