Birthday poses and Others!




Lots of stuff happens this time of the year, we start off with Valentines Day then Dina's birthday on the 19th, so I have a picture of her and Lacey at a restaurant in Oregon City that we went to for lunch. When Lacey and Addie met us at Dina's house, Addie walked in with sunglasses on..she was looking like a movie star strutting her stuff!! I grabbed my camera, but by then the glasses were off her and on Jalen, so I quickly snapped a shot of him. I couldn't get Addie to put them on for me.

And then there is Ellie, the Jumping Queen!! She had been staying after school for a "jump start" program, and now all she does is jump, jump, jump. And she is pretty darn good. She squats down and can manage to jump the rope...she can jump in backwards, forwards, she spins when she jumps, she can do one push up while two of us turn the rope...and the best is she can do triple jumps, which means she jumps once and turns the rope three times!! She is fabulous. And now because she does so much jumping, Lily has really gotten into it also...she only jumps in forward, but really likes to stand and then jump (that is when Mommy and I are both turning the rope!) And then of course, in walks Jalen who really tries to jump, but barely gets his feet off the ground!! Fun times with the fam!!

Sunday we celebrated all our birthdays with the great-grandparents present. I made lasagna and homemade breadsticks that were very yummy, a salad and Lacey made Scott's favorite dessert - Lemon Meringue Pie!! A delish dinner and wonderful memories with the family.
