.hitting deductibles, climbing out of windows, new mattresses, and sunshine.

My heavens...life really never slows down a bit does it?  Just when I think things start to get into a groove and I can get ahead a bit, something else hits.  I'm just trying to write down some of the things from the last month before I forget everything that happened.  I hate doing month recaps, but it seems all that I'm capable of these past few months.  So here it is in all it's recap-ness.

The BIG thing that happened this month was sick Eisley.  We got our first ambulance ride and everything.  Nothing like meeting your deductible right out of the gate right? (you can read more about that in her 10 month update).

  We are so blessed by good family and friends.  They helped us through all the madness with watching kiddos, picking up cars, and bringing care packages.  We always feel God's love through the kindness of others.  Thank you a hundred times over for your selflessness!!!
someone left us a sweet care package for the kids filled with puzzles, coloring books, and treats.  Finn said it was the nicest thing ever!!! 
Meg, as is well known is our little miss busy body.  She runs me ragged and seems to never stop.  Getting older has only allowed her to get into MORE things, so it's a never ending battle.  In an effort to keep her out of Finn's toy's I tell Finn to shut his bedroom door as she has not quite acquired the necessary height to open the door knob.  The other morning I went in to his room to coax him into getting ready for preschool instead of playing with his legos.  I shut the door behind me so Meg wouldn't come into bother us.  As usual she sat outside the door crying dramatically because she wasn't allowed in.  After a LONG discussion about having to hurry to get ready I got up to go get the girls and me ready.  To my dismay, I realized Meg had locked the door (in our defense we changed the door knobs around so that Finn wouldn't lock himself IN).  So there we were,  Finn and I locked in Finn's room in our pajamas, with Meg crying frantically on the other side of the door.  I panicked a little as I scrambled to find something to open the door.  Finally I realized I would have to go out the window pajamas, bed head, and all.  I can only imagine if any of my neighbors saw me, what they were thinking.  When I got back in the house, Meg was still laying on the ground outside of Finn's door crying like an abandoned child...seriously!!!
sleeping is the only time this one is still...and even then she moves a lot!

We spent Valentines going out on a lunch date, and getting a new mattress.

The best thing about this February has been the absolutely amazing weather. You really can't beat 60 degrees in February!
