February 2017, in photos

We sat outside in our new "grass" in one month more than in our old grass in five years. It is so much more functional and the kids and Gus LOVE it.

The day after Grandpa and Grandma left and everyone was sad and crabbly... Natalie drew a picture of her and all her neighborhood friends at the park with Grandpa Huxter and Grandma Becky flying above them in an airplane.

Never a dull minute with car trips to and from school. Bookworms one day, party animals the next...

 Doing homework together...

Sadly, this will be the last Hayes wearing the super cute Osh Kosh overalls with pink hearts.

Eloise and mommy had to get a flat tire repaired on Mommy's bus. Naturally, Eloise was fascinated.

And later that day, Eloise was fixing the tire on her toy bus with her toy screwdriver. :)

 Lunch time for all the babies...

Mommy managed her first braid in Eloise's crazy curls.

The girls began to LIKE to dress alike and do things together, like brush their teeth and simultaneously snuggle with daddy.

We were reminded that Eloise is indeed a two year old.

And Eloise also began to show interest in riding a bike like the big kids...
