February Highlights

Hi. This month has flown by! We started it by celebrating Danny's 30th birthday. We talked about throwing a small party for each other since we both turned 30 within 2 months of each other, but didn't get around to it - no surprise. The night of Danny's birthday, 2/1, and into the next day, a blizzard dropped a total of 19 inches of snow in our area. We were snowed in on 2/2 until our very helpful neighbors used their snow blowers to get us out. We've also enjoyed a visit from Grandma and Grandpa Krafve two weeks ago.

About 2 weeks ago, Joy started to put two words together and has become more spontaneous with it recently. She also looks forward to going to work with me in the morning. She asks for the baby most days when she first wakes up.

Danny was away for four days at the beginning of the month. He went to Florida for a conference with one of his bosses. Thankfully it wasn't all work. They golfed one day and enjoyed exclusive seats at an Orlando Magic game one evening. Joy and I really missed Dad but made it through okay with one exception. On the last night Dad was away, Joy tried to squeeze between a table leg and the wall when she slipped and cut her nose on the only sharp piece on the table. There was a little blood but a quick recovery minus the scab.

Unfortunately, Joy has been sick this week. She came down with a cough on Monday, it got more serious Tuesday evening, fever started Wednesday, and fever on and off through Thursday (we stayed home from work this day). Danny is planning on staying home with her tomorrow.

Below is a 'highlight' video of our life this past month. It isn't anything too exciting, but captures moments of our daily life. God bless you and your family!
