Spring, where are you?

February is coming to a close and spring is just around the corner, at least I hope it is. The amount of snow fall in the last couple of days would suggest otherwise. For Valentines Day Sterling and Lucy brought me flowers at work and later took me out for dinner at Mimi's Cafe! What a lovely surprise. It was a load of fun to get out of the house and Lucy was able to get a feel for her new car seat which she loves!! When ever we are out everyone compliments on how beautiful Lucy is and how well mannered she is. We were truly blessed with just the sweetest little girl.
Construction on the fireplace starts next week! I am so excited!! Not only are we blessed with a house but also the means to remodel just the way we want. It can get hard waiting but I know in the end we will have our custom dream home. Thankfully Sterling has loads of experience as a superintendent of commercial construction when he lived in California, so all I have to do is pick out what I want and its done.
Work and church callings are going great. New beginning's was last week and it was a blast to get to know all the new beehives coming in this year. Hopefully our ward will continue to grow with families and not retirees.
Lucy is growing at an impressive rate, in the matter of weeks she has completely grown out of her 9 month clothing (that were fitting perfectly might I add) to 12 month. I only note this because she was still wearing some 6 month clothing at 9-10 months. She can pull herself up and will walk across the couch and other things. In the last couple of days she has been daring enough to let go of the couch and try to one-two step it to mom or dad. Of course that is only if she has a deathly tight grip on our hands/arms. The new shoes really help with the hardwood floors. It can get pretty hard for her to walk across things with socks or in her PJ's. Not to mention Mom loves shopping for shoes ;)
Loads of things coming up... keep posted.
