Yesterday Mikayla brought a new phrase home to our family. She introduced it at dinner time. It's kind of catchy, I think you should share it with your whole families. She heard a second grade boy say it. Are you ready?
Talk to the booty, cuz the hand's off duty!
Now in our family, this must be followed by lots of laughter, because booty means bum, ha ha ha!! I hope you can incorporate this into your family dinner conversation, as we have.
Thanks so much second grade boy!!!

Papa's Polar Patch
That is Tyson up on the slide, with Mikayla and Braden waiting their turns. Mike is ready to catch them.
This weekend we went to the pumpkin patch. It has been turned into a Polar Patch. It had sleigh rides, ice caves, ice skating, smore making and hay mazes and castles to climb and play on. It also offered old fashioned sled rides. This consisted of a car hood being pulled by a ATV through a field of snow. The kids loved it and Mike did, too. Jacob and I stayed behind to watch and take pictures. We pulled Jacob along with us in a sled. The weather was pretty warm, 42, so there was alot of melting going on, but it was still fun.

Good news!
Last week, Laura started to worry because she "thought" that she might be pregnant. When her time of the month came, her time of the month didn't come. Monday, we decided to take an over the counter test. After work, I bought the two pack of EPT because it was the cheapest per unit. These where the results. 
Laura was worried that the first one was a false positive, so she did the other. Yesterday, we went to the Lab and had her blood drawn. They called Laura this morning to tell her the results. She called me and told me that she wasn't pregnant. Apparently she thought that it would be funny. It wasn't. She is. Pregnant. Her first appointment is going to be near the end of March, but we figure that she'll be due around October. Laura and I are very excited. Nick doesn't understand what's going on.

Valentine's Day
So, what is everyone doing for Valentine's day? I'm am looking for some fun ideas for my family. I may just go with a heart shaped pizza. The kids have been making cards for thier friends. Mikayla has a program at school on the 13th. I think I will also make candy trains and CHOO CHOO Choose them for my Valentines. Any other fun ideas?
I remember one year in high school, I must have been in 7th grade. Some group was selling carnations for Valentine's day. You could buy one and write a message and they would deliver it for you on Valentine's day. I was so surprised when I got one that day. I felt so special, as a goofy 13 year old to be getting a flower. Guess who gave it to me? Ralph! Wasn't that a nice brother?
One year Mom bought us all balloons and tied them to our chair. I also remember once coming to dinner and having some little gift on our plates.
I've tried to be fun and create on this loving day, but Mike hates Valentine's day, so I never expect anything.
Does anyone else have fun memories of Valentine's day?

Ryan's 2nd Birthday!
Today is Ryan's second birthday. This morning when I went in and got him out of bed, I sang Happy Birthday to him. He said, "No, no birt-day." It was very cute.
To celebrate his birthday we get to go to the doctor's and get shots. Then tonight we will go the Chuck e Cheese's with Jason's family to celebrate. He got a new shirt to wear for the day.

What a blog should look like
I imagine most of us have seen this before. This is what a blog or a blogg is supposed to look like. I guess who ever started the ones on line didn't consult Dr. Seuss.

Austin's Game
Austin and Layla are sitting in the toy room. Austin says, "Pretend it is Grandma's birthday and every time she has a birthday she turns into something else."
He picks up a bumble bee toy and then throws in down and picks up a unicorn,"Hello kids, I'm grandma!"
