Back to catching up on happenings in the Flood household...the beginning of February was fairly typical. On the 9th, I was invited to run in the Dirty Girl Mud Run with a group of ladies from the bootcamp that I interned with last spring. I was a little hesitant to join because I have not run since I herniated a disc in my back almost 4 years ago. But....I went signed up anyway and I am so glad that I did. I had the three most adorable cheerleaders there and although my running stamina was pretty much non existent, I had a ton of fun and loved getting out there, breaking a sweat, and getting dirty!
The middle of the month brought Valentine's day, in which I was greeted by J with a beautiful, handmade card when I got home and dada had one to match waiting for him. J was so excited to give them to us and say "Happy Balentime's Day, mama!" and I was melting over my first piece of artwork from my daughter.
From mama and dada, Jordan got some new slippers and Doc McStuffins jam jams!
I was also one lucky wifey and was given Country Mega tickets for this summer. Five awesome country concerts are calling our names. Having these tickets and spending summer afternoons tailgating before country concerts is a favorite pastime of mine and Bobby's. We spent a good portion of our initial friendship at them and then pretty much all of our dating relationship as well. I am so excited to get a few nights out on our own and I think we may actually bring at least J, if not J and B, to a concert or two. We'll see! Such a great gift. Thank you, Bobby!
I can't forget about our adorable little cherub. She helped celebrate the day of love as well and was a perfect little model for mama's photo shoot. This is one of my favorite pics of her yet!
And then there's DooDoo. He finally, FINALLY got a haircut. The poor guy was spending more and more time outside because he smelled - from being outside - and was full of those pesky little foxtails and burs - from being outside. The guy can't win. But alas, he is so fresh and so clean clean!
Bobby and I continued our Valentine's Day celebration that Saturday and took off for dinner and a movie at the local Cinepolis. We saw Identity Thief and we both thought it was very entertaining. While the price tag is a bit much for this date to be a repetitive thing, the food was great, the seats were so comfy, and the company was, of course, PERFECT! We both had a couple cocktails, ordered a few different appetizer plates to share for dinner, and then splurged on this amazing candy corn to take into the movie with us. MMMMmmmmMMmm!
With the cherry stems from my sangria, we both had to prove ourselves to the other, cause, you know....any person that can tie a cherry stem with their tongue is a great kisser, DUH!
February also brought about some new threads for our bed. It was about time. Actually...it was way past time. Our old comforter was getting pretty gnarly and Bobby said the matching curtains reminded him of a grandma's house. Awesome. So, out with the old and in with the new. Except....the curtains are still up! HA! In due time, folks! Anyway, Here's B modeling the new, still creased and lacking a couple more throw pillows, bedding.
New paint for the bathroom is also on the docket and Bobby took advantage of me in a weak moment and also convinced me to start the remodel on our bathroom. While we're not going all gung ho and knocking down any walls or ripping out our tiny shower, we did finally rip out the carpet (WHO, in their right mind, puts carpet in a BATHROOM??) Ewww!
To round out the month, we spent a weekend up at Grandma's for a Meet the Baby/Baby Shower for my sister and baby Teagan. Because she was having a girl this time around, we knew she deserved some sort of "shower", but we weren't able to do so until after Teagan was born. It all worked out great though because my sister and her family were also wanting to go to Disneyland (a post on that will come soon!) after JP turned 3, so we were all able to join in on the fun for one extended family weekend of fun! The shower was great, Disneyland was fabulous, and getting to see all six cousins together was so incredible!
Next up is MARCH!!
