a bit behind

I'm simple always a bit behind. Hence, the Valentine's Day pictures being posted late. Grammy sent us Valentine's Day bibs that arrived just in time! We did get dressed up so daddy would think we were pretty/handsome and to prove we do get dressed most days...ok, well, some days at least.




I think this pic is too adorable. Addie is smiling and Zach seems so sweet leaning into her. Of course, much like riding the Sizzler, all peeps tend to lean which makes Addie say Hey Now!






so in her defense, once we propped everyone back in their own space, she claimed some extra. That's all I can think when I see her legs spread so wide. She's trying to keep her sibs out of her space. lol of course, it didn't work, but she was still a good sport.



and eventually she chose to show Katie what she felt like...




Now that the kiddos are becoming more mobile our evenings are fun. We both agree the 5:30-7 timer period is pretty tough on both of us, but the kids LOVE that time. I think partly because they have both our attention and partly because their bellies are full from real food. Luckily, that night's craziness was no different. Like many nights we had a "Kate,...how...why...uh, what are you doing there?" moment...



followed by a good laugh at Addie's expense. All of the littles love when their clothes are pulled over their heads. Luckily for me, the jumpers the girls wore were a little tighter to pull over, so you can imagine these next pics. Our own little flying nun.







So, their first Valentine's didn't have any stuffed animals, no candy, heck...I even forgot cards for my own husband let alone the trio. But it was a night so filled with love, laughter, and joy none of the other stuff matters.
