February Break

I love my February Break!
Last Friday after school I was able to meet Madalyn and see my high school friends - Jen, Nina, and Sarah. Madalyn is absolutely perfect, and it was great to see my girlfriends.
(I forgot my camera)
Unfortunately, Quinn was sick all weekend, so we really never left the house. We were able to make it to a Sunday night dinner with Mimi, Lily, and Pete.On Monday, Quinn and I went to a dentist appointment and on Tuesday while Quinn was at school, Owen and I went to my school to do some work. Tuesday night, Lolo came over for dinner and Quinn made some cupcakes for dessert. Wednesday was a sunny day, so Quinn and I went to visit Marie and Olivia. We went for Olivia's first stroller ride around the block. After the walk, Quinn gave Olivia a bottle. Nonnie and Lolo babysat Wednesday night, so Dan and I could go to the hockey game! Olivia - two weeks old
Today I spent the morning with my grandma and then took Owen to music class. He is really following directions well, and enjoys listening to the music and singing along. This afternoon, I was able to finally meet sweet Brooklyn, Dan's cousins daughter.

I wish this break did not have to end...

Valentine's Day Dinner

We went to my parents house on Sunday for a especially fun Valentine's Day dinner. What made it so special was it was Olivia's first time there for dinner! The eleven of us had a great time, and we can't wait for it to be 12 in July!!!Ollie and her great grand children

Olivia Susanne

My sister Marie & Jay are the proud new parents of a little girl! Olivia Susanne was born on Wednesday, February 9th. She is absolutely perfect, and I am thrilled to be an aunt!Owen and Dan went to visit Olivia on Thursday morning.
Quinn is absolutely the sweetest big cousin. She actually said, "I can not believe my eyes". She wanted to hold the baby the entire time, and she was very sweet talking to her.
