Taaza!

Last night Zach and I were able to go on a date! Alone! Without kids! This is amazing! We haven't been out alone, just us no, no kids, no friends, etc in almost ONE YEAR! We have got to get better at this :)  My mom was so kind to insist to watch the boys so Z and I could go on a Valentine Date Night. It was so special! Thank you Grammy. I know the boys enjoyed it!

We went to Taaza. Its an Indian Restaurant on Franklin Road. We love the place but haven't been since Caleb was born.

I highly recommend it if you like Indian food, or if you are up for trying something different. It never disappoints us!


I was so excited/nervous about the whole date I forgot to get any pictures. :(
Best part of the date was on the way there Zach noticed I had lasagna (Calebs dinner) was on my neck. Oops. You can never escape motherhood :)

A trip to the mailbox : )

One of Cohen's birthday gifts from Grammy was a magazine subscription to Highlights Magazine :)  The best part about this gift is that Cohen gets to get the mail and have a special gift waiting on HIM!! He also loves to get "new books" all the time.  I knew it was in there from yesterday so I left it in there and told Cohen we had to go check the mail.....




Duke always rides with us.

Cohen gets front seat to the mailboxes!



A present... for me!!!! :)




Thank you Grammy for my gift, I love going to get the mail and I love having something in there for just me!! I had so much fun putting the stickers on the magazine!!!!

Cute things they say.

Cohen has been saying some very cute, random, witty things lately and I want to remember it so I have to post so I won't forget!


1. Yesterday I was helping him put one of his birthday toys together, I was having the hardest time doing it and finally got it working!

           Cohen:  "Mommy, I am so proud of you!" "Thank You" 
 I also heard him telling his cousin Colton that he was proud of him for something he did. So sweet. Hope his sweetness lasts!!!



2.   Me:  "Cohen, whats in Mommy's belly"        
      Cohen: "Baby Jesus?"
(This was a few months back, he now knows that I am NOT carrying baby Jesus in my belly,  and her name is Presley)  He calls her preblee :)          



3.  Zach: "Cohen, are you obeying right now?"  in his stern voice
Cohen: "Don't speak to me like that Dad, you are NOT showing me kindness"
So hard not to chuckle during this incident!


4.  The other night at Red Robin Zach had to take Cohen to the car for some displicine, on the way to the car a police car was flying by with his lights and sirens on.

Cohen:  "daddy, did you call them to come get me? I'm sorry I don't want a ticket!"   in his most terrified voice.




5.  Me "Cohen! Come down we are ready to eat"
     Cohen: "Mommy, I just want to play for 30 more seconds, okay?!"
30 seconds? I had to laugh out loud!


6. Me: "Awww, you look very handsome today Cohen!"
Cohen: "No Mommy! I am not handsome, I am Caucasian" 


I was soooo stunned on why he knew this word,  But last week during his "video time" I made him watch a video on different children in the world, in the video it showed the children and explained the race and where they are from, their culture, etc. I am guessing this is only way he knows that word. Weird!

7. A few days before his birthday we were eating lunch with my mom at her office. A women she works with said "Cohen how old are you gonna be?"
Cohen's replay: 9
kathy: "9! I thought you were going to be 3"
Cohen:  "No!! I told you! i'm going to be 9 my dad said so!"


{embarrassing! we had to have a little talk afterwords in the car about being polite... and the fact that he would be 3, not 9.}





He makes it very hard not to laugh in situations when we are reprimanding him because he always know how to say the cutest things! I think he is going to be a very outspoken boy!



Caleb on the other hand is so frustrated that he can't tell us what he wants, etc. we are working on more and more words with him daily and I can't wait until he can say cute things too :)  He just started squealing "daddy!!" when he sees Zach and its so precious! "da da" was definitely cute, but this is even better!

Phils prediction.....

6 more weeks of Winter!!!!



If you are disappointed by his prediction check this out... there is hope :)


Where is ___________ Caleb?

Caleb has been notorious for doing certain things in our home. He is now known for hiding things, anything.  He will place it whereever he sees fit, it could be in the trashcan, a toilet, a cleaning bucket, dog food bag, playdoh containers, anywhere!  We have misplaced so many things lately only to find them in random spots. 

His latest...


A plum in the toilet. Half eaten.

A full sippy in the laundry room trash

I was missing a pair of my sunglasses for days....

Found them!!!

This is Calebs little fun game he loves to play lately, frustrating but so cute!
