2nd Week of February

The 2nd week of February was a lot of fun of course because it was my birthday week!  I took my birthday (Wednesday) off of work.  We went to the chiropractor, the car wash, and over to Winco for some spices.  That night Steve and I also started our online/Zoom "Emotional Resilience" class offered by our stake.  Then on Thursday nights we have our stake online/Zoom "Emergency Preparedness" class.  It's great being able to learn from these classes, especially from the comfort or our own home.

Here are some of the week's highlights.

Cute Hudson.  One minutes he's awake, the next he's asleep, and vise versa.

Nyles and Carter playing in the dirt w/ their trucks.

Cute Hudson grabbing his toes while nursing.  He likes to multi-task. :)

Hudson likes to grab Steve's hair, just like his brothers did.

Steve tickling Hudson.

Carter building w/ Magnets.

More building from Carter w/ his silly face of course.  Cute Hudson.

Silly Hudson kicking his leg while nursing.

We got a little snow on my birthday.

A neighbor brought me some flowers for my birthday.  So pretty.

Another neighbor brought over a huge cookie, which we had for dessert that night.

Singing Happy Birthday.

Thanks for all the birthday wishes and making me feel loved on my birthday!

The boys put together tick-tac-toe boxes from Home Depot.

The boys jumping on the trampoline (no jackets, silly boys).

The boys celebrated Valentine's Day at school on Thursday the 11th.  Carter decorated a bag at school, and Nyles used his MineCraft treasure chest from last year (different school why not).

Nyles also got to dress up for a "Sock Hop" at school.  They did some dancing too.

The boys in his class: Lincoln, Nyles, Owen and Esrael.

The boys again: Esrael, Lincoln, Nyles, Dillion (from the other class), and Owen.

Carter loves getting licks from Piper.

Friday night we went over to LuDean's to have dinner together for my birthday.

And we got a little more snow on Sunday.

Nyles putting the hat on Hudson, then Hudson playing w/ Nyles' hair.  We made heart shaped pizzas for Valentine's Day on Sunday, then the boys went out and played in the snow.

We also did another family Zoom meeting Sunday night and played the game Blank Slate.  Rose and her girls, Pauline's family, Mom/Dad, Dexter and Sage, Barb and Abby and Steve and I all played.  It was a lot of fun!  I'm glad we can still play games together even though we can't get together physically.

This week in our Emotional Resilience class we made a goal to write down one thing we are grateful for every day.  Here are some great quotes about gratitude.
