February was such a short month! We enjoyed a fun Valentine’s
Day at home. I made a yummy dinner for
us of steak and lobster tails. The guy
at the store asked if I wanted a whole lobster! I wasn’t quite that adventurous
this time around. The lobster was
actually a lot easier to prepare than I thought it would be. Cooper got a new movie and some cute clothes
from his Grandma and Grandpa Spain. We
also went to go buy a gun but we went on the worst weekend. There was a gun show in town so the store was
a crazy. We ended up going back this last
weekend and got the one we wanted! It has
been a long time coming and we definitely feel like we need it more than ever
in the area we live in, so that was where some of our tax return went too.
I also finally got our 72-hour kits assembled. I’m pretty proud of myself for that, it has
been in the works pretty much for the last 5 years! The only issue I have now is that they are
crazy heavy!!! And I still haven’t put clothes in them. So, I am going to have to do some rearranging
I think. Miraculously, I also sewed my
own pillow slip covers this month. I
have never sewn anything before besides a button so with some help of a couple
friends I got three slip covers made! I ran out of fabric, so I still have
another one to do, but I actually really enjoyed it! Who knew? Mom? Why didn’t
you try to get me to learn to sew earlier???? (She might punch me for that line…)

Cooper had his 18 month check-up
this month. He is about 26lbs and at
about the 50th % for height and just under the 25th % for weight. He has recently learned to climb on everything! We have baby gates that blockade
him now in just the living room. He gets
pretty mad he can’t get into the kitchen now but he has figured out he can
climb over the couches to get into the kitchen if we aren’t watching long enough. He is also in nursery now! He loves it and never once shed a tear for
being left in there. He has actually
been going for a while and he is starting to catch on to the songs and
lessons. He is obsessed with cats and
pretty much loves any other animal. He
asks for his kitty app all the time and wants to Skype his Grandma and Grandpa
Spain to see their kitty on the iPad. He
is learning so many new words. It is so
nice to be able to ask him what he wants and for the most part he can either
tell us or help us understand. J
