February Birthdays

February marks the beginning of birthday season for the Gunnings. There are five family birthdays, inlcuding Brian and Patrick. Happy Birthday to all our famiy February birthdays and a special happy birthday to Patrick - he turned 16 in the 19th.

Patrick chose to mark his 16th birthday much differently than the girls. As much as I enjoyed planning and providing wonderful Sweet 16 parties for Meghan and Ryan, Patrick wanted nothing to do with that plan. He chose to mark his 16th with a visit from his buddy Nick with homemade cookies from Nick's mom (Patrick's other mom) and a visit from the Birthday Fairy. To be truly honest, realizing that my baby is 16 was a little sad for me! They grow up way too fast.

A weekend with Ezio




The first week in February brought us our "baby fix!" We had Ezio for the weekend while Tara and Justin enjoyed a much needed weekend away. Ezio is such a good baby and we have too much fun with him. He's walking and talking and exploring and doing all things toddlerish!
