Feb 13 - Family Day

Since Anth has to work on Valentine's Day and I go back to work on the 15th, he let me sleep in this morning as my final Mat leave sleep in. I closed our bedroom door once the kids were up so I could take maximum advantage of the opportunity. I got out of bed around 11am (SO nice) and we fed the kids lunch and then playtime! Once again the dog bed was the center of the entertainment for them.

We randomly decided to go out shopping in the afternoon. I have been looking for some new glasses and we wanted to get out of the house so we went on a glasses search. The kids were unbelievably well behaved all day. They are usually pretty easy going but today was exceptional. They were totally quiet in the stroller while I tried on numerous glasses and then they just both drifted off to sleep!! Not even a peep out of them. I love it when we have days like this! I was able to pick out a couple pairs of glasses that I like but haven't purchased them quite yet. Once the boys woke up it was around their dinner time so we decided to take them out for their first ever dinner in a restaurant for their first Valentines Day. I am aware that it was the 13th but it was OUR Valentines Day since Anth works on the 14th. We went to Boston Pizza and once again we were amazed at how well they behaved. The first dinner out went great!

After dinner we headed out to a family friend's house. Gord and Giselle were in town from Terrace babysitting Linden and Makenna for the weekend while Gord (Jr.) and Nanc played OTL. It was an impromptu visit and we didn't get there until 7:45pm so we weren't sure how the boys would be but with Linden and Makenna entertaining them it went so well and we were able to stay until about 9:30pm.

Linden was making faces at Gavin and Gavin was just killing himself laughing!!

Kenna is such a sweet girl. She wanted to hold the 'babies' and take care of them. Such a little mother hen!
