Valentines Day

We had a wonderful Valentines day here in Cheney; the weather was really nice and we got to spend some time together. Of course, mother nature decided to snow on us today, so I don't know what we are going to get the rest of this week. But even Whitney got into Valentines and gave out Toy Story cards to her other baby friends who live close to us. Here are some pictures from our Valentines yesterday.



Courtney put these on the bathroom mirror Sunday night after Will went to bed so he would be surprised by them in the morning.



I also gave him some doritos and peanut mnms and a scripture notebook. Will saw one at Bimart that he wanted, so I went back and got it for him. Will also got me some wonderful presents.



I loved the pink tulips that look and smell so pretty. I also really like the message in the bottle; Will must have put some time in it so the paper could look officially old. And I will have to use my coupon book to get some chores done by Will. Isn't he great?

We ordered a heart shape pizza from Papa Murphys. There was a coupon for it in our newspaper. And we watched a movie. It was a fun night.



Whitney keeps amazing us everyday as she learns more things. She really likes to be chased around our apartment and we let her 'escape' from us by going under our arms. It is quite a workout crawling around all day, now I know how she feels. Whitney also made me really happy by taking two steps. She let go of our coffee table and took two consecutive steps toward the television. I hope that means she will be walking soon. I guess we better baby proof better. Here are some pictures of her being cute.



Having a purply day. Don't we all need one of those every once in a while? That headband lasted the whole time I was taking pictures and that was it.



Whitney loves her little yellow bear that Ruth and Dana gave her. She has learned what "give kisses" means, so she will give her animals or me and Will kisses when we ask her to. It is more like just leaning her head forward, but it is close.



Here is Whitney in the bath. Don't worry we had two people in the bathroom so one of us could watch her and the other use the camera. We leave the diaper on her while we place her in the bath for a little while so she can splash around and go crazy. She loves taking baths now, a far cry from screaming the entire time just a couple of months ago.



And here is our whole family, courtesy of the home teachers. It took them a couple of tries, but we got a picture with all of us smiling at the same time. And that it quite an accomplishment with a little baby. So we are happy. Hopefully, the snow will stop and spring will officially start. With love from the Keelers in Cheney.

Aw, cuteness! I'm glad to see you guys so happy! Wes used to do the same thing to give kisses, he'd just lean his head forward so we could give him a kiss. Now he shuts his mouth and goes "Mmmmmm!" until you give him a kiss, then does it over and over again, which can make getting out the door really hard!

Happy Valentine's Day!
Whitney looks very cute indeed. Walking is verry close now. She looks pleased about being able to get around.
Hugs from RI!
