Valentines and Presidents

We haven’t talked about presidents as much as valentines this weekend (well, not with Susanna anyway), but we did talk about Abraham Lincoln a little bit (Happy 200th, Abe!).  And we also had a wonderfully fun weekend!  A hot date to the symphony for Scott and I (Susanna thought we should have gotten ice cream because that’s what she and Scott always do on their daddy-daughter dates but was mollified, I think, when I told her that we had a chocolate torte); a “mommy-daddy-daughter date” with pizza, ice cream, and a playground; a reunion with my second cousin (complete with the usual delicious dinner); and a fabulous hike up Little Mount Si.

Still no pajamas for Susanna

You may recall a somewhat recent post indicating that Susanna likes to take off her pajamas and diaper when she goes to bed.  Well can you tell what she is wearing in this photograph?  When we went to check on her last night, we saw that she had (as she does every night) taken off her pajamas and then, perhaps in desperate need of some warmth (she’d thrown her blankets out of her bed and couldn’t get them back) stripped her pillow and then climbed in her pillowcase.  We simply had to snap a photograph of this stunt, and now you get to see it.
