Yesterday Andrew had his Valentines party at school. They frosted cookies, made heart necklaces, painted, and gave their friends valentines cards. It was pretty cute! Andrew always loves when I visit him at school.

Swimming-part 2
Today was Andrew's last swimming class. We will be missing 2 of his sessions while we are in Palm Springs, but we are hoping to work on his swimming since we will be at a pool (hopefully) swimming everyday! He woke up a grouch this morning, not wanting to get out of bed (at 8:45 when I woke him) and not wanting to go to swimming. I finally got him dressed, in the car, and off to swimming. He fought me the whole way into his class and stood and watched the kids for awhile before his teacher got him to come into the pool. He pouted for the 1st 10 minutes of class and then had a great time splashing around and playing with the other kids.
Superbowl Sunday
Superbowl Sunday we spent at my in-laws. They have been spending much of their winter in Palm Springs and Andrew has been missing them lots. We told them we were going to their house after church and he didn't even want to eat lunch, he wanted to go straight to Buddy Papa's house and have hot dogs! As soon as we got there he rode around on his tractor and played with papa. He didn't watch much football, but spent the afternoon playing with both of his grandmas.
They have this little workout chair in their bonus room that is like riding a horse. Andrew loved it and said he was a cowboy! He wanted to listen to cowboy music while he rode the "horse."
Ava was not to thrilled most of the day. This was the look she gave pretty much the whole time we were there. She did nap well, but wasn't too happy when she was awake. If I was out of her sight for one minute or if someone else was holding her, she cried. Poor baby is such a mama's girl!

My babies
The kids are at a really fun stage right now. They are also requiring a lot of supervision as Andrew is always getting in Ava's face, taking toys away from her and not sharing. Ava is really starting to interact a lot and play with her toys. It so fun watching her figure things out and explore new things.
Right now my favorite thing that Andrew says is, "are you kiddin' me" or "are you kiddin'." Seriously, what kid says this. He is too funny!
Ava loves blankets more than any baby I've ever known. As soon as you put a blanket over her in her crib she grabs it, put it by her face, and kicks her legs like crazy and smiles. She absolutely loves blankets. She doesn't have a favorite blanket, any blanket makes her happy. She also loves to have her pacifier in her mouth upside down. She will purposefully put it in her mouth that way.
Dance Party-take 2
The next day Andrew had his friend Carter over for a play date. These boys are so funny together. They play so well together and are a crack up. There favorite thing to do is get flashlights and chase around looking for ghosts. I don't know why both of them love it so much, but they do. When Andrew asks his other friends to do this, they look at him like he's crazy, but not Carter, he loves it just as much as Andrew. They also had a dance party, which was hilarious! The boys each had a flashlight, we turned on some music and they jumped around and had a blast. Other highlights for them were- Mario Kart Wii, eating bunny crackers together (Andrew's favorite), playing trains, tickling each other, and just running around like 3 year old boys. They have a lot of energy!
Dance Party
My other highlight of the weekend was our impromptu dance party on Sunday night. We had a quick dinner at Chipotle and when we got home Andrew grabbed 2 flashlights and started dancing around. We turned the lights off, had the flashlights going and turned on some music. Andrew and Ava were both having a blast. It was so funny. Ava was cracking up and Andrew was going crazy. We danced to Andrew's favorite, Black Eyed Peas "Boom Boom Pow." After our dance party we put the kids to bed and on the way Andrew said, "that was the best dance party ever!" He cracks me up!
Ava getting in on the dance party too. She thought it was so funny when I held her like this. She just jumped and laughed.
