Love Week

Gearing up for love day!

We did Valentines this week and picked out some Super bowl snacks. Holidays are all about the food.

Last Sunday night our ward boundaries were completely changed, and our entire stake is arranged differently. We meet in a new ward in a new building. Michael is still in Young Mens and I'll be teaching Gospel Doctrine. Super surprised and intimidated by that calling -- here we go Old Testament.

Michael has loved replacing studying with watching the olympics. Asher seems more alert and awake lately and not so newborny. He hit 3 months this week! Getting rid of baby clothes for the first time was so bittersweet. 

The boys no longer have to wear masks to school as of tomorrow. I'm grateful that Bennett will be able to progress more with his speech without masks. Kids these days are such troopers, the last two years have been so much.

Westin had his last Activity Days this week at our old church. His leaders were so sweet to hold one last activity even though our ward is no more. They made valentines cookies and he's really bummed that his bestie is no longer in our ward. He's also in his class at school and on his basketball team on Saturdays, so Westin said through tears, "I can't believe I'll only see him 6 days a week!" Haha sweetie. Word on the street is that our new ward has lots and lots of little boys in it so I'm hoping we've got some good crews for our boys up ahead.

We're still very much in tired baby mode around here but we also get glimpses of the future here and there during a good stretch of sleep or actually getting us all out of the house. These boys are so sweet.

 

Some Valentine's sweet rolls ready for tomorrow.
I didn't know we had a Valentine's sweet roll tradition but Westin says we do :)
I don't know if that's because that's what we've done in the past and I don't remember or if he just think it's a really good idea... 

Getting rid of our first round of baby clothes and I definitely cried.
Such tiny sweet people wore these tiny sweet clothes.

Reading by the fire is a favorite past time for these two lately.

"Benny boy, hold a handy!"

He tolerates tummy time a little more than my others.
Maybe he'll crawl before he's a year old then hehe.

Sweetest faces. He prefers to make eyes at each other now instead of eat a lot of times.

Happy birthday to our book launch! Crazy to believe our Kickstarter was a year ago.

Chunking up and cute as ever.

Still prefers sleeping in this totally unsafe way...
How do I get this kid moved to his back??

Our newest dishwasher emptier!
He likes to open the silverware drawer and just dump them all in,
then say "I did it!"

"Soup, mama? It's hot it's hot!"

A bunny sighting on the way to school!
