Time flies

I know that time flies when you are having fun, but it seems to fly faster when you are busy. I have been trying to sit down and blog for the last week and every time I do, there seems to be a new distraction. Work has been particularly busy as people have been particularly sick this year. Kevin's grandfather passed away so we have been busy with family in town and a funeral. Claire has finally realized that she is two and needs to have as many tantrums as is possible which takes up much of my day. Claire has also had trouble with her two year molars which, I must admit, must be painful. Mackenna is doing fantastic in school according to her teacher. As she put it, "She is a ray of sunshine". I am so proud of her. Haylee has been busy with school, gymnastics, and b-ball. She was recently moved up to Intermediate class in gymnastics and can do the splits and a back walk over. I am so impressed when I watch her since I could never do any of those things. The girls recently went to their father daughter Valentine dance. Every year this makes me a little teary eyed. They had a great time and this was the first year that Kenna got to go. She felt so special. Valentine's Day itself was a bit of a blur, but we did make some time to make some homemade Valentines with finger paints and pink heart shaped pancakes. The girls had sleep overs that night, so Kevin and I just watched a movie at home and I made him some ultimate nachos. (Yes, I offered steak, but he chose nachos instead).
