February started out with a wonderful visit from our good friends, Jennifer and Isabella Renk. We had a fun day hanging out at our house and having a picnic at the park. And the next day we met up with them again at the Railroad Park for more fun.
You made your first valentines cards for a Valentines Day party we went to with our friends. You liked coloring on the cards and adding the stickers. 
You love going to the library! You really like listening to the stories, but your favorite activites are playing with the shakers, the parachute game and catching the bubbles. This winter we participated in the Winter Reading Program and we read enough books that you received several prizes including a new book about trucks. You were so excited as the librarian gave you your bookmark and coloring sheet, etc.
Last month we also started going to a music class at the rec center. You are fairly reserved in class except for when Ms. Sarah asks you to come and get a shaker or a bell. You hop up and run over excitedly to collect the item and run back. You do a great job at following her instructions!
For Valentines Day we spent the day as a family. We started out with a special breakfast including the delicious fruit that Grandma and Granta Pamela sent. And then we headed to the park. You've really got an arm now for feeding the ducks, but they must have been pretty full already because they just would not come over to us that day. 
Later on in the month we went to the Zoo with a friend and we actually were able to feed the giraffes. Didn't get a great action shot here, but you get the idea. We were both fascinated by how close they were to us but you weren't scared at all, you just looked at them in amazment.
