Ladies and Gentlemen, Children of All Ages...

We made our nearly annual trip to see the circus today.  It was so nice to only drive 30 minutes vs the 1.5 hour trip (each way) that we had to drive when we saw the circus here and here; although this was a much smaller circus show.  As usual, the kids had a great time and loved seeing the animals and acrobats!

at the end of the day, the kids requested to sleep together.  How sweet are they?

Valentine's Party Delayed

Due to the snow of last week and the closing of school, Reagan's class Valentine's party had to be postponed until today.  The kids celebrated with an ice cream party and then exchanged valentines.

Breakfast Dates

Every month, Reagan's school hosts an event called All Pro Dads.  It's a chance for dads to become more involved with their kids.  Cooper has been feeling left out of all the action, so today I took him out for a special breakfast at Dunkin' Donuts!  I think both kids enjoyed their early morning dates!

Toothless

Reagan lost yet another tooth today at school.  I think this is #9.  The tooth fairy is going to have to get a second job to keep up with all the action in the Sandidge house!

Back at it!

It's been a little while since I've taken my camera to the gym to catch Reagan in action.  Unfortunately today, most of my view was obstructed, but I did manage to get a few good pictures.

Warming Up

A little post-snow playing treat for the kids...hot chocolate to warm their bones!
