Saturday on the Town!

We had a busy Saturday! The four of us went to the Sci-Tech Discovery center. There were two exhibits, Bodies in Balance and the Coordination Station. Both were very interactive, but the boys liked the coordination exhibit better. I'm guessing because a lot of it had to do with rolling balls around in different stations. They even had little step stools so that kids the boys' size could play with the exhibit, too!

After we left there, we tried a new place for lunch, the Pizzeria Testa! It was great! They brought out the pizza for the boys really quickly, which we appreciated. The boys loved it! Justin kept asking for a "bite" of David's tea. He'd give him a sip, Justin would make a funny face, but he still wanted more!

After their nap, we headed out to a birthday party. One of their classmates at school was turning two, so we joined in the celebration! It was nice to be able to put parents' faces with the kids (and to learn what the names were, since we're still pretty new to the class.) They played with toys, ate cake and got fun goody bags! Then my mom met us back at home so David and I could have a date night. But that's another story for another day!

Valentine's Day

We had a great Valentine's Day! That morning, I gave David his cards from the boys and me, plus his gift. I gave him a star! Well, I had a star named after him. Once it went through, I got an official certificate, plus a star chart showing where it is and a picture! It was something different and he liked it, so that was good! He said my gift would arrive that day, so we went off to work/school.

The boys' school had a Valentine's party, so both Mom and I went to that. They had all the class parties occur at the same time, which I think is smart. They had tablecloths, and festive paper plates and cups. The kids got to feast on some yummy treats, then they did a craft. Then they passed out all the goodies! Let me tell you, the boys got quite a haul, especially since there's two of them! The party was definitely a success.

Once we got home, I took the boys in the backyard to run off some of their energy. I got Jack to actually kick the soccer ball a couple of times, instead of throwing it like he usually does. Oh, and I found two packages on the front porch! One was from Proflowers.com, and was bouquet of buds, that are now starting to bloom into pretty pink tulips! David got home, I started the boys' bath while he started on dinner. We had cheese fondue for an appetizer and it was soooo good, I could've gotten full just from that! He made eggplant Parmesan for dinner and it was fabulous! Dessert was chocolate cake with strawberries on the top.

We got the boys in bed and ate our dinner. I also had a package arrive that day, it was an Elmo polo shirt and plaid shorts set for the boys. They're not quite big enough for those just yet, but they will be soon! The other package was from Amazon. David got me the complete Gilmore Girls series! The box that they came in was really cool, too. It was a great Valentine's Day!
