My very funny valentines

Reed loved these "Valentines Day" shirts and hated to take his off to wash it. It makes me happy to know that I still have a little more time before he thinks this kind of stuff is not cool.



We celebrated our love together with a trip to Baskin Robbins.


Very romantic....

January

I know--- I am WAY behind, but January was too important to skip entirely. So much for 2009 being the year I mastered record keeping.

We started the year with celebration as our little Max turned TWO on January 6th. He really is totally deserving of his own post, but since I'm so behind this will have to do for now. (I will gush about how wonderful he is and how much he has grown in an upcoming post.)

The birthday boy and cake.


The party guests.


January also brought some cool weather--- perfect for playing outside...




Throwing leaves...


and trying out the self timer. (Reed's new favorite feature)



The cool weather turned to COLD weather and the most snow we've ever seen in NC.


Some loved the snow...




Some didn't..

Reed: "Max! Max! Max! It snowed again because the groundhog saw his shadow! That means six more weeks of WINTER!"
