Well almost anyway! Today me, Blake, Brooke and one daycare kid are enjoying the beautiful snow! We are watching the Lion King (Blake's current favorite), playing cars and trains and of course going outside to play in the snow and make snowmen!
We've had a busy last month, which has been fun! Kevin was racing in Florida the beginning of February and had some great runs, especially the last night at East Bay when he battled for the lead and ended up 2nd, it was pretty intense and stressful to watch, at least for me anyway! Blake and I made a shotgun trip down there for 3 1/2 days and we had a great time despite Blake having a cold. We were able to see Kevin, watch some racing, play in the pool and go to Busch Gardens. (Thinking back about being in Florida sure makes me wish we were there now especially looking at all the snow!)
We had the RLS banquet last Saturday night and we had a great time! Although the night seemed to go too fast and I paid for it all day Sunday! It was nice to see all the racing people again after a long boring winter. Kevin won the modified track points and my dad was 3rd in points as well as the "rookie of the year" as a joke! LOL Cathy Roe had a plaque made for me and made a beautiful scrapbook of all the kids and the activities that we did, for starting the RLS kids club, it was really sweet and thoughtful of her, and very much appreciated!
On to the kids.....
Blake hasn't been up to too much, he started swim lessons a couple of weeks ago, its more of a introduction to the water, as I have to go in with him! Since having ear infections so often when he was a baby and then having tubes put in, he's been super sensitive about getting water in his ears. So he loves playing in the water but does not love having the water anywhere near his ears. Each week he has improved and is getting more and more brave about getting wet. He really enjoys all the games and toys we play with there. Blake is still in to playing make believe a lot, like acting out the Lion King, its pretty cute :-) Other than that he hasn't been up to too much, just playing outside and playing race cars! (Since going to Florida he is beyond ready to go racing every weekend!!)
Brooke has been changing and growing so much! She is almost 8 months now, she has 2 teeth, can say da da, she's attempting to crawl and wants everything she can get her hands on! Anytime Blake is playing with her and not being too rough she is beyond happy! He can make her laugh and giggle so easily, makes my heart melt! Brooke wants to crawl and stand on her own so bad that she's getting very frustrated. She's very much a mommy's girl and LOVES to be snuggled, which I love! When Kevin comes home, she's all about daddy and wants all of his attention!
March is going to be filled with a quick weekend getaway for Kevin and I, a wedding, the crazyness of Kevin's busy season at work, the preparation of racing season for both Kevin and I.... meaning Kevin doing any last minute things that need to be done before the season is underway and me doing fun and "normal" people things on the weekends before we are racing every weekend. I'm also planning an overnight stay at the water park in Duluth for the kids and my family. Should be fun :-)
That's all for now...next time I'll post pix! Enjoy the snow!
