valentine's day

Andrew had to decorate a box for his v-day party. When I saw his teacher that day she asked if we found the idea on Pinterest. HA!! Of course!! When I saw this on Pinterest I KNEW Andrew would definitely want to make one. It took him 3 days. I helped him a little and cut some stuff out on the Cricut for him, but he worked really hard on it and was proud of his work! The boys both made Star Wars valentines. I found them online and just printed them!! I forgot to get a picture of Blake with his and his party was on Monday since he doesn't have school on Tuesdays so he posed with Andrew.

valentine's day

This little cutie helped me me make her Vday cards.

I found the idea on Pinterest. LOVE that site!!

She stuck the hearts on the butterfly and the eyes on the sucker. Her party was yesterday and it really threw me off being nearly a week early. She is like her brothers and loves to craft so I figured we needed to find Valentine's that she could help me make. I figured this easy craft was just her speed.

The boys will be doing theirs this weekend and I'll post pics when we're done!

Feb snow... FINALLY!!

I don't understand how people hate snow. I think it's so pretty!!

We got about 10 inches last weekend. The boys have been anxiously awaiting for some snow so they could go sledding!!

Claire loves the snow. Remember last year...she cried when I put her in it. Not this year, she cries when it's time to go inside! I did put her down in some deep snow and she start yelling, "Oh no! Where'd my boot go, Mommy!!" I had a nice laugh after that!!

She loves to try and make a snow angels like her brothers....although I'm pretty sure she has no clue what she's doing.

Taking a break. Playing in deep snow is a lot of work for a little kid!!

Daddy helped build the boys a wall so they could have a snowball fight.
Andrew trying to peg Matt.
Mister Cool Blake playing hard with his planes. What a stud!!

I forgot to mention in my last post that Jenn Massey flew up to see us the first weekend in December. We had a great visit and enjoyed crafting, shopping, spa time, and SNOW! She was hopping for some snow when she came and we got 8 inches!!! She even got to go sledding!! It was a fun visit and I hated to see her leave!!!

Claire is potty trained!! It took her longer than I thought it would, but she's doing great!! No more pull-ups at school or when she goes to MOPS. She'll tell her teachers when she needs to go. YEA!! I'm so glad to be done with diapers!! Well, we use diapers at night, but that will come.

Well, Snow White and Darth Vader need me downstairs. I'm not sure what Snow White is going to do when Darth starts Kindergarten in the fall. She is going to be SO bored with me!!! Gotta run!
