February Fun!
Even though February is a short month, it's still amazing how fast it flies by! Here's two of my sweeties ready to cheer during the Superbowl! We had all the cousins over for the superbowl to celebrate Eden's, Samantha's and Steve's birthdays. I don't think there was much football watching, but everyone had a wild and crazy time!
February was a month of sicknesses for us. Ella started us off, then Eden got it, then Emily, then back to Ella! I was happy to avoid a doctor's visit as I used drops I already had and then they just filled two more prescriptions for me over the phone! Poor kids each missed a day or two of school.
On Valentine's Day the girls woke up to a trail of heart cutouts leading from their room to the couch. There was a present to each of the girls. Emily and Ella each got another Liv doll and Eden got her first Pillow Pet. An "ooh ooh ahh ahh" - which she LOVES! Curious George is her favorite show right now and she won't sleep without her monkey pillow anymore! I also got to plan a preschool Valentine's party and a 2nd grade Valentine's party. I've definitely planned more parties in my life than most people! Eden had pink eye on the Sunday before Valentine's day, so I stayed home with her. Steve and the girls were all decked out though!
Here's a message to me I saw stamped out in the snow on Valentine's day! Such sweet girls I have!

Just a cute pic of Eden's growing personality! She LOVES babies and loves to dress up!
I took the preschool kids on a fieldtrip to the zoo since our theme this year is "I am Zoo-per!"
Good thing we had nice weather for the fieldtrip, because the next day we had about a foot of snow! I got all the girls bundled up before school to play in what was hopefully the last snowstorm of the year. We tried to build a snowman, but the snow was too wet.
The girls all had a blast at first!
I was telling the girls how to make snow angels. Ella plopped right down and made one.
But Emily said, "Geez, why would I do that?" Too practical. However, after I plopped down and made an angel, Emily decided it did look pretty fun.
Soon enough though, we were all cold and wet and ready to go back inside!
Big sister Ella to the rescue!


However, after just a few minutes Eden got all dressed up again (by herself) ready to go and play again!
I took the girls on a mommy date to the Safety Fair at the Expo center. There were a lot of fun things to do and it was suprisingly not too busy. I made Eden wear her monkey backpack. However, once she realized it had a cool tail, she wanted to hold it by herself. Kind of defeated the purpose - especially since I lost her after that! Luckily she let Ella and me take turns after that!
The girls had so much fun they talked their daddy into taking them AGAIN Saturday morning while I had to work. There was one station from a bilingual school, where a lady taught them how to make playdough all in Spanish. Ella just loved making playdough by herself! She came home and got to work making batch after batch of playdough.



This was just a FEW of the playdough batches they made up!
Here's Ella at Queen and King day at preschool.
We read "The Paperbag Princess" by Robert Munch and all the girls got to make a paperbag dress. Here's Eden modeling Ella's bag.

Looks like another busy month! Cute pics as always. Glad everyone is feeling better.
The faces of Eden! (The Three Faces of Eve) She is cute even with her eyes swollen nearly shut. Loved the pictures of all the girls. They are so lucky to have you two as parents. Life is never boring around the Asp household. Good to talk to you and we look forward to the pictures of the party and baptism. Love you!
I think Mom summed it up -- Never a dull moment at the Asp home. What a great mom and dad those kids have.
Love the pictures!! Your girls are always so adorable and you are such a fun mom! I'm glad the sicknesses are over and that you could still have fun outside in the snow. Emily is so funny how she's practical and not girly! :) Mow you can have fun outside for spring on your fun swingset! The girls looked beautiful in their Valentine dresses with their daddy Sorry Steve, you weren't beautiful! :) I love how they made playdough all by themselves too. Eden is adorable in her paperbag dress too!
