Morrocan Date

For our date tonight, Houston took me to Marrakech Morrocan Restaurant. These pictures are from my phone so they are not the best. The ambiance was great and the food was amazing! Its a great date place, but it takes a couple hours to get through the meal. Its a 5 course "meal" that you eat with your fingers. We both had a great time.


And on Friday and Saturday nights they have a professional Belly Dancer!


The second time she came out to preform, she gave a mini lesson that I took part in. She complemented me TWICE on how well I shook my hips. I'm a natural!

This is a great place that I highly recommend.

Valentine's Day Part 2

So I was actually excited for Valentine's Day this year. I wanted to make it special for Veronica, so it was an all day event! It started with Heart Shaped pancakes, red eggs and strawberries.



Then Heart shaped PB&J for lunch
And for dinner a heart shaped home made pizza.

Veronica liked it so much she licked her plate when she was done!

Houston dancing with V. So cute!We went to the Galleria and Veronica got to ride on the carousel. She loves to ride the horsey!

And ended with Ice cream!

Big Bite!

I had such a great night with my Valentines! I love these two so much and I cant wait to meet my third Valentine in June.

Yummy Valentines Day Part 1

Since life happens on Monday, I thought we should have a tiny Valentines celebration on Sunday. It all started with ooey gooey hot from the oven Cinnamon Rolls.

Which Veronica LOVED!

And then after church we finished it off with Chocolate fondue with all of the fixin's. Apples, Strawberries, Brownie Bites, and Marsh mellows dipped in Nesquick Powder. Yummy!


Valentines Day part II is tomorrow!

Like Father, Like Daughter

For Christmas, Houston got Veronica a camera as a special gift. She loves playing with it all of the time. Last time I caught her taking pictures of our dog, well Walter's (Veronica's papa) dog, Chewie. This time, Veronica was taking pictures of her Papa watching Cops.







Just like her Daddy. Say Cheese!

Valentines Crafts

I think art is really important for children. So recently Veronica and I have been doing a lot of coloring, drawing, and painting. I've been looking at different craft blogs to get ideas not only for myself but for Veronica to do as well. And I found a post where have your hand prints in the shape of a heart. Since Valentine's Day is coming up I thought we could make something special for Daddy, Grandma and Grandpa Elmer and Papa and Grandma.


I'm letting V get her paint wiggles out before we start the project.

She kept sticking her thumbs out. The top one resembles a heart the most.

The finished product. I had to change it up and paste the hand prints on a heart so it actually looked like what its supposed to be.

Here is the heart she made for her Daddy. It says, "I love you, I love when you take me outside, I love when you push me on the swing and I love Chewie (Our puppy)."

I asked her what she wanted to say on each one and for Grandma and Grandpa Elmer she said "I love going to your house, I love eating yummy food, I love family (she originally said I love Noah, Luke and Jacob but I shortened it and included everyone).

For Papa and Grandma's it said, I love you, I love going outside, I love looking at the chickens, I love Chewie.

She obviously didn't use sentences but she gave me a list of things she liked and that was good enough for me. Happy Valentine's Day!

Sleeping in the buff

So it took Veronica awhile to fall asleep last night. She was singing her ABC's and Itsy Bitsy Spider and I Am a Child of GOD and she was talking to herself. There were also points where she was grunting and fussing a bit. I thought she was doing something else, but when I went to check on her, this is what I found. My naked baby.



For some reason she has been wanting to take off her clothes and run around naked after she gets up in the morning. But now it has progressed to sleeping in the buff!
