Basement Football

So Sean's new favourite past time is when he gets home from work he takes the boys downstairs and plays football with them. Drew has improved his throw a ton and they love spending time with him. This week has been really nice to have him home for dinner every night and just to have some extra time with him!

Taylor had crazy hair yesterday morning when she woke up so I decided to put it in 3 little piggy tails...one on top and two on the sides...it was so cute and stayed in all day! She's pretty good at letting me do her hair in the morning as long as she has something in her hands to play with, it distracts her from the hair pulling!
You'll notice her smiling here...those two in the front are her bottom teeth...don't be fooled...she still has only 4 teeth!



It snowed here yesterday, wet snow so it didn't really last long on the ground. Today Drew asked me how many days until March and I said two. He got really excited and when I asked him why he was so excited he said:
"Because March is when the sun comes out and spring melts all the snow away!"
I had to tell him that it might not happen right away and it takes a while to melt this much snow. He understood and was just happy that spring was coming because he's sick of all this snow! Even my kids want to see the grass again! I can't wait to get outside and get my flower beds blooming and grass green...this winter has been the longest ever!
Tonight I'm heading out with some friends for girls night out dinner and a movie so I'm excited to have some good conversation and food! I have to confess that my favourite food (and by the way I just realized this) is popcorn! I HAVE to eat it every night and I look forward to it...when the kids are in bed and I sit down to watch tv and eat popcorn! It just goes together! But movie popcorn, even though it's worse for me, is my ultimate! I can't wait...I know it's pretty lame that I get excited for food...Jeni you know what I'm talking about!
My parents are coming in 2 1/2 weeks and we're so excited! Mom is coming early and Dad will be here mid week to help Sean frame our basement and get things started! It'll be fun to have that space downstairs developed and some extra space for guests! I'm kind of looking forward to painting it too...it'll be a job and a half but nothing like painting my last house! It took us 3 weeks to do our last house and that was only working nights...3 coats each color! This is just a basement so hopefully it'll go faster!
