We had a pretty sweet Valentine's day. Tripp and I made our 3rd annual scavenger hunt for Randy. We even had a clue taped to Tripp's belly! (thanks for the idea Tera:) The hunt ended with two heart shaped boxes, one filled with Reese's for Randy and the other Spiderman candy for Tripp. Randy surprised me by pulling out presents from the closet. He got me an enormous box of chocolates and a digital camera since our other one bit the dust a few weeks ago. So I felt very spoiled. Here's some pics of my boys in their red shirts.
I decided to make chocolate dipped strawberries this year for Valentine's Day. We also ate lobster tail for the first time and it was delicious! Call me a nerd, but I looked on youtube to see how to cook and eat it. We might have to make the lobster tail a tradition as well.
Deklan loved the strawberries!
And Tripp only ate the chocolate off of them
My sweet Valentines!
Pretty sure I'm the luckiest girl in the world!
And sitting like a champ! It's not difficult to get Deklan to smile. He is such a happy baby and a joy to have around. Sometimes he just looks at Tripp and starts laughing.
We just started him on cereal and he wants to feed himself. I thought I could feed him for awhile before this happened, but Deklan had other plans.
We discovered a few nights ago that his food of choice is a lime. Randy handed him one and he went to town on it and didn't even make a sour face. Crazy kid! He also has two little bottom teeth that he likes to bite mommy with. -and apparently Tripp's ear as well :(
Deklan was gaining weight pretty well but has just recently decided to watch his figure. He is now 16lbs 4oz and in the 33%. He started off in the 70%.
Good thing I took a picture, cuz 5 minutes later this happened:
After all that work, he needed a snack.
