Sending Out Love

Well we had a wonderful Valentine's at the Hooker household!! Ry and I got to go out for dinner and a movie, while the Monkey got to spend time with her new favorite babysitter Megan on Friday evening. Yesterday, we made our first trip to "Build a Bear" and I must say they have some crazy outfits for those bears. Check out the shot above. We ended the evening with Ry cooking dinner for us and since he is such a good daddy he even painted the monkey's toes so she could sport her new monkey flip flops!! Just want to end the week by sending love out to all of our family and friends. So, Cookie and Berky Bee per your request, check out your special message below. Love you all.

Weekend Recap

This weekend we spent time with family. Monkey's cousins Cookie and Chunky Monkey were here for a visit, along with Mimi, Umpa and of course Aunt Mere. Poor Chunky was a bit under the weather so she didn't get to join in on all the fun. Like going on our first trip to paint pottery. What a big event. Cookie and our Monkey thoroughly enjoyed themselves and we weren't sure if they spent more time painting their items or themselves. Needless to say a good time was had by all. We also went to see Hotel for Dogs- What a cute movie.. The kids and adults loved it :) Ry and I have always said no dogs for us, but after seeing this movie and Marley and Me, I hope we can hold strong when that request comes... Unfortunately, we also recently find out the Monkey is highly allergic to dogs, so that may be a good excuse when she pleads her case some day. Other than that we just hibernated the rest of the time since we see no end in sight for this frigid winter. Our weekend was definitely a circus at times with three little ones, but we truly enjoy getting to see and spend time with our families. So, Mimi and Umpa-- Addie has one last message for you. Have a safe and wonderful trip.. We love you.
