"Awesome"

Out of nowhere or in true toddler form, my child decided she needed goggles in the bath tonight and just started giving me the thumbs up and cheering "awesome"... and it really was!

Snow Angel

This weekend we finally got snow, and as far as Addie is concerned, it was the first snow fall EVER! (Charlotte didn't get any snow last year and the winters before that she was too little to remember.)

 

A Day of Red & Pink

The Preschool party was a success. The kids enjoyed the cupcakes, watermelon and strawberries all served on red plates, forks and table clothes of course! .                                                              

Dinner also had its fair share of treats. Addie tore into her present to discover a new pink dress-up dress. Followed by pink pancakes shaped like X's, O's and hearts for dinner. {Hugs, Kisses & Love!}
 

 

I am not a red roses & box of chocolates kind of girl nor do I consider Valentine's Day an extravagant gift sort of holiday so I mean it when I say it was a great day! I am also looking forward to the date night Jim inspired with his gift (a necklace and gift card to Beadlush) and we are already enjoying mine... the pancake pen used to shape our dinner and a homemade message board, (he now needs to hang, ha)! I LOVE YOU!   ...............................ard.     ...........                                      

OWL Always Love You!

Alright, not the most clever but I am apparently reaching for some good material. Luckily, the little one is still fairly cooperative about having her picture snapped... if you let her make a funny face one as well. That is a compromise I can live with.Gosh I love this little face whether its happy, unimpressed or goofing off!

Love is Work

For a day that is supposed to simply be an occasion to let people know that you care about them, it sure has been a lot of running around and craft/prep time. ha!

Teacher Gifts: Red Velvet or Chocolate covered strawberry Cake Pops by Trendy Treats by Johnnie, slotted threw foam butterflys Addie decorated.

Cupcakes for Preschool Party. (They also have cute polka dot papers that I found on sale at Michaels.)

 

Assembling "Addie's" Valentines for her friends. I wanted to find a non-candy card and we love bubbles so this was perfect. (I created and printed 4 per piece of paper, cut them out and then rounded the edge with a new craft toy I love!)

Jim and I finished them up while watching TV

Finished product

Addie's Vday gift she will get tomorrow night - stay tuned! I made this more work then it needed to be and it is not something a 3yr old would even appreciate but I think presentation always makes things more exciting. (Besides I was not running to the store.)
