A few cute pictures

Zoe & Solomon hanging out on President's Day

Another good week is behind us... I went to OKC for a work presentation I had to make. Solomon has been absolutely crazy and insane lately... more than usual for those of you who just internally said "so what's new?" :) Anyway, we have had our moments. He stayed with my parents last night and this morning at some point, pushed one of those closet doors in until it broke and fell off. I'm sure they'll want him back really soon! My parents looked utterly exhausted when I went to pick him up. Of course, he was also exhausted because about one mile into our drive home, he passed out.
In the video below, you can see that Solomon thinks Coco should be covered by the blanket. He assumes that because he worships it, everyone, including Coco, should as well. Coco is such a good sport though.
He's being dramatic a lot lately. I have no idea where he gets this from.

It appears he's about to perform some sort of barbaric procedure on poor innocent Coco.

Below: Coco gets hugged and almost hit and sort of covered up.. etc...

Seriously....

Seriously (said in an annoying Valley Girl way) is just something Alex and I say to eachother sometimes for fun. It really is seriously hard for me to believe it's been more than a month since my last post. Time flies. Oh it does..
Anyway, we've had a lot going on. Solomon has settled nicely back into the routine of part time daycare. He really likes it there and the teachers seem to like him. He's always telling me that "Ella hit Brock" or "Romy hugged Ella," etc... It's funny. The kiddo is literally obsessed with Curious George these days. Experts say two-year olds should watch no more than two hours of TV a day. We really are good about that, except for when he was sick a few weeks ago. It is so hard though because he "hearts" C.G. like nothing else. He giggles out loud when George imagines something. Solomon is always telling us how "Curious George can't find the ball. Too dark in cave." He's very serious about these two facts. He's still loving his Thomas the train engines and is really into coloring on his chalkboard and with his crayons. He also, as expected, LOVES the Curious George book that Kandi, Jimmy and Zoe gave him for Christmas. It's funny how they've never updated that book and it still shows the Man in the Yellow Hat smoking a pipe. That would be a big "no no" these days.
So, could it snow one more time?? Ugh.. I'm sick of it. I'm sure it could snow MANY more times before this Winter is over. However, I'm hoping we're past the worst of it. We/I did make a sweet little snowman after our second to last snowfall. Solomon was only a little impressed, while Coco just kept pulling off its stick arms.

This past weekend was a lot of fun. We had dinner on Friday with some of my past KSN co-workers at Sara and Shane's house. Their two kiddos were there, plus eight other kids from three sets of parents and Solomon of course. He had a blast and it was fun for us to catch up with everyone. My sister turned 38 (OMG!) on Feb. 3rd so we celebrated her b-day on Saturday with lunch and cake. Then, Sunday, we watched the big game at Abby and Brett's house. There were several kids over there too, so Solomon fit right in. He tried repeatedly to swipe Abby's delicious cookies off of the dessert table. He succeeded many times, but not everytime. The kiddos all watched Finding Nemo and then settled in on A Very Monkey Christmas later on in the evening. Solomon and sweet little Lennon were loving that one. They danced and jumped on Abby and Brett's bed together. It was pretty darn cute. Both of them have wavy brown hair. They were little sweeties.

Check out the videos below. They are funny to me at least.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Valentine's Day!
