A long time ago in February....

Levi went to a 4 week basketball camp with his buddy Jaylen. He also enjoyed being the oldest, the caretaker and protecter. Whenever we meet someone new he always says this almost to a tee. "I'm Levi , the big brother and this is Makayla and Parker. I take care of them." and sometimes he adds, "I teach them things." He really is a good big brother!


Makayla and I went on a little date to Red Robin and then did a little shopping at Old Navy where she made friends with the manicin.


and she also got in a little mischeif which involved a permanent red sharpie :)


Parker continued to be a content and extremely happy baby. This is the huge gummy smile we see ALL the time!



Mike and I got to go to dinner and a Blazer game. It's always nice to have a night out together just the two of us!

but we also LOVE to enjoy our quiver full!


We took the kids sledding on Mt. Hood. We found a great spot with a perfect hill and Levi and Makayla really enjoyed it! Levi was all about the sledding and going fast and Makayla just liked to play in the snow.



Parker and I sat at the bottom and took pictures.

On the way home we sipped some delicious juice boxes and talked about the fun we had!

We babysat David and Coleman, which turned into David, Coleman, Isaiah, Gracie and Aubrey! We love these kids and we had such a fun time playing and eating together. It's been so fun watching them grow up together and they are getting to the point where they actually play "together" and not just in the same room, I love it!
Big kids minus Makayla.
Enjoying lunch.

Aubrey and Parker.

And to finish up the month of February we took the kids to OMSI and they LOVED it! Lots of exploring, creative play AND they have a water area which is an all time favorite!

Makayla driving and cooking me dinner.

In the water area. (We we there for probably half the time :)

Makayla in the earthquake simulator which she thought was a rockin' dance house!

and Levi playing with pulleys and levers! A boys haven!
What a month! I'll try to do an outline of March later today.

Great Pics!!! Better late than never. Fun to see the girlies in the pics too. Thanks again for watching them. I don't know how you managed that many kiddos.
