February

February was a wild month for us.  Of course, being 8 months pregnant, I had weekly doctor appointments. All was well with the new addition but she didn't show any signs of coming any time soon. We had scheduled a repeat c-section for March 5th (4 days before her due date) so we confirmed our plans to go ahead with the surgery. 

We also had a lot of fun with our birthdays and Valentine's Day. My birthday was the 9th so Nathan and I had a rare dinner alone at The Melting Pot. We ended up going again on Nathan's birthday (the 26th) but this time we took Chloe.  We were nervous about dealing with a toddler at a fondue restaurant, but Chloe did really well and is a natural at sticking food in cheese and chocolate.  For Valentine's Day I made dinner at home -- lasagna for dinner and chocolate lava cakes for dessert. We  also made chocolate malt chip ice cream and blue moon ice cream -- my favorites!

All in all in was a good month! We enjoyed the warmer winter weather and in general just spent some time finishing up projects around the house and just enjoying our last days as a family of three.

Time sure flies. Our baby is almost a year and a half old! She seems to big now and I'm sure she will seem more so once the new baby comes in three weeks. Since it's February we decided to take her photos in her Valentine's pajamas.
