Fun in February

We’ve had a nice month. The winter has been extremely mild (nice!) and we haven’t had too much going on so we’ve been reading, playing, and building a blanket fort around our favorite six month old!

Oh and giving her lots of kisses!

We also went to Family Fun Night at Avery’s school and the kids had so much fun. Here’s cute Camryn showing off her face painting.

Lily has been growing up much too fast! She’s a pro at getting up on her hands and knees, but she hasn’t quite mastered the fast crawl. She can scoot around slowly and roll around quickly so she spends most of her time on the living room floor exploring.

For Valentine’s Day Merrick got the girls a cardboard coloring clubhouse. It is pretty big, actually. Probably 5’ x 3’ x 4’. Cool huh?

I let them keep it in the living room for about 5 days and then it was relocated to the basement. I clipped a reading lamp in there and they had a fun time though. Lily loved sitting in her Bumbo playing with her big sisters.

One warm(er) afternoon we went outside and took a few quick pictures of the girls. (Avery, of course, wearing a skirt. She prefers to wear a skirt and tights to school instead of pants now. Got holes in all three pairs of her tights last week! Luckily thick tights are on clearance right now!)

So we’ve been having good times. Usually February is one of my least favorite months of the year in Wisconsin – it’s cold, the snow isn’t melting, and spring isn’t coming for a while. But this year the snow has been sparse and melts within a few days. Makes me happy. Hope your February has been nice too!

So fun to see Lily on all fours!

And that coloring clubhouse is brilliant. I love how the girls have decorated so far. The baby doll in the chimney is a nice touch. ;)
