Marley is now our little walking bird. She's been practicing for a week or so and now seems to have come close to mastering walking. She can pivot which is a sure sign that before too long I'll be chasing two kids instead of one. Some bad photography of her first real steps that weren't her REAL first steps but I was at a meeting when she decided to take her first steps so they don't really count.
Ikea does rule for many reasons...and now they sell hats which makes them rule even more. Niki found these when we are at Ikea and we both bought a stack of them. Marley has taken to the birthday hat and actually puts it on every morning and parades around in it. If I could wear a cake on my head I would too I guess...
As mentioned, Marley now has a new blue room. It only took me three weeks to pick the right blue. We all like it though, especially Marley. When I can't find her, she's in there sitting in her chair thinking she's cool. And clearly, she is.
So nice to have a holiday in the middle of February. Kevin again spent most of the weekend painting the bedroom in the basement. I didn't get the girls out of the house for him this weekend so he had to fight off the girls interrupting him every 2 minutes. Chloe got to roll and paint a bit and Marley says 'wow' everytime she walks in the room. We headed to the Legislative Grounds for Family Day which was actually pretty fun. Horse rides, face painting, ice sculptures, skating, magicians...and hot chocolate. Oh yeah, and the family of course!
Kevin repainted Marley's room a few weeks ago. I offered to help by getting out of the house and taking the girls with me...we headed to Leduc for a day with Grancy and Grandpa and the girls had a great day. A few shots from Grancy's house....
Valentines Day would not be complete without a school party full of sugar and sweets. I can't believe the amount of junk food these kids haul home from these parties. Anyways, Chloe was thrilled of course and thought Valentines Day was pretty cool...
