Since it was an absolutely gorgeous day today, we decided to go to the zoo! What a perfect idea! Safina had a blast! She LOVES the zoo, and Emery enjoyed her first visit, even though she slept the whole time! Later on we went to Gigi's house for dinner and a little birthday celebration for mommy! We had a good time, but everyone was a little tired today. I received some great gifts and we had a yummy cake! Thanks everyone!

Some more playing around with the Valentine's set up!  Boy, do my girls like to pose in front of the camera!

totally missed focus on this one, but I love this face!

Emery is talking more and more!  She says "hi", "milk", "up", and "mommy/daddy".  She is also teething right now and she is getting like 6 at once, the poor thing is in some serious pain!  I am teaching her how to turn the light switch on and off and she loves doing that.  She also loves getting people their shoes when she knows we are leaving the house.  Occasionally she will blow someone a kiss, and it is the sweetest thing ever!  She is a tease and a flirt, and she LOVES to give hugs and snuggles!  I adore this child!

The big one (Safina), is all into pretend playing, and I love it!  She will call her friends on the "phone" and have conversations with them.  She plays doctor, waitress, and life guard!  She is playing so nicely by herself which is fabulous!  Little sister usually comes and messes things up though!  She also will tell us what is going to happen ("I am going to have milk and watch a show, then take a nap.  That's my deal!")  So the "that's my deal" phrase gets used a lot at our house!

Yesterday we went to Build-a-Bear with Uncle Andrew and Aunt Janet!  They gave Safina a gift card for Christmas, and she was so excited to make her own animal!  She choose a calico kitty, put a music option in her ("girls just wanna have fun") and a fun pink sparkle top and a frilly skirt!  Don't forget the leash, her favorite part!  She named the kitty Cheetah (which is really weird, b/c Janet had a kitty growing up whose name was Cheetah).  She had a blast.

Today Gigi stopped by for a quick visit!
