End of January & Beginning of February

The end of January, after our trip, we got back into the swing of daily life. Kimbri and Garrett headed back to school and Brenna and I spent a lot of time getting unpacked and the house back in order. 

Here are the photos I have from the last part of January and the beginning of February:

Waiting on the porch for Kimbri to get home
off the bus. 

Coloring the inside of a pull-up box, haha. She totally loves
Doc McStuffins and Minnie Mouse so it was a win!

We were out doing errands before picking up G
from preschool. We ended up getting to preschool
pick up super early, so I let her get out of her seat and
eat a banana while we waited in the parking lot. 

Whenenver daddy texts saying he's on his way home, the kids
run out and hid on the porch and wait for him. They love daddy!

Brenna snoozing in the Frozen tent with her
Frozen blanket. 

The kids notes and artwork that they had decorated our
bedroom wall with :) 

Playing frisbee with dad!

Also, Rick has been working on chopping down
that obnoxious tree in the back corner. Glad
to be rid of the poison sumac that had taken it over!

Afternoon church is hard. Brenna didn't want
to wake up after falling asleep on the drive home.

The weather has been up and down. Some days feel like it's spring and others dip down into the cold kind of days. But on the good days we've been going on walks! Garrett loves riding his bike and Brenna enjoys sitting in the stroller. She has always been so great to just sit and enjoy walks, ever since she was a baby! She's so content! Anyway, Garrett is getting so fast on his bike that I'll tell him to count 5-6 mailboxes and then stop and wait for me since I can't keep up with him. It's funny because he speeds as fast as he can to the stopping place, hops off his bike and finds somewhere to sit until I catch up. 

These two kiddos are so sweet with each other!

Garrett's preschool, St Andrews Academy, had a free lunch
at their playground one day after school. The kids enjoyed
getting out and playing on the playground!

They are always climbing and skiing on Rick.

Daddy never gets a break when he's home!

Garrett has insisted on sleeping on the floor lately.
Not sure why! But it's become a nightly thing....

She wanted a pic of her hair. It's getting so long!!

Kimbri has been practicing putting in pony-tail
elastics. I love when she plays with my hair. It
feels sooo good and is so relaxing!

Sometime around the end of Jan and beginning of Feb was the mark of the end of the 3 term. Kimbri was recognized at the Success Day assembly and got 3 awards :) She has loved school this year and adores her teachers Ms. Espinal and Ms. Clark, the assistant teacher and who is also her afternoon bus driver.
