February 2010

We had much to celebrate in early February. My grandma Kneeskern turned 90! We had a good portion of the family celebrate with her in Rochester the first weekend of February.



We had 8 cousins and significant others:



And about half of the great-grandkids! Quite the crew:

It was a great day with everyone celebrating the woman who started it all (from our perspective anyway)! We are so blessed to have had her around for this many years. Looking forward to every birthday with her!

Some fun miscellaneous shots:

Taylor getting in some cuddle time with mommy and loving on her baby sister. For some reason the shirt I'm wearing (and the position I'm in) really accentuates the bump. I don't think it was THAT big in February. :)

Valentine's Day!

Taylor's school had a Valentine's Day celebration in the afternoon. They made necklaces, cookies, exchanged cards and did some coloring. Quite the party!

Taylor anticipating her first bit of her yummy cupcake. Olivia (her BFF) has a head start on her:

Taking her time decorating her cookie. Had to make it JUST right:

After the festivities, an impromptu dinner out with Olivia's family. One of our favorite places, the Convention Grill! Yum!

Such hams they are:

A fun shot of Taylor geared up for outdoor time. As I write this, it's 90 degrees in May..this seems so long ago!

She wanted to help daddy shovel the front and lasted about 10 minutes before she decided it was too cold. I don't blame her!

Another big milestone, potty training! She was picking it back up in February and doing pretty well. Al caught her in this "big kid" pose on the pot one day.
