Bryan has been pretty busy this month, with planning our youth group retreat and getting ready to go to Peru again, so I told him that I would take care of planning our Valentine's Day activities.

She takes two very long naps every day, and sleeps from about 8pm-8am every night. She doesn't LOVE eating as much as she used to (probably the teething)
