Valentine's Week

Aunt D is working wonders in our kitchen! She pulls out recipes that I've printed off but never made and makes them! Here are the veggie tamales she made that were AMAZING. If I ever get around to another post on the veggie blog this will be the first one  up.

Family Home Evening this week was about the Christlike attribute charity and love. We hid hearts around the living room that had ways we could develop charity on them and had the girls find them. Then we did a special activity to decorate/write notes on hearts for some dear friends who are going through a tough time.

Playing school with Aunt D.

Aunt D helped the girls make Valentine's cookies.

Today we started the day with pink heart pancakes.

Then we put on outfits that consisted of pink and purple. Baby Beluga can say "stylish."

Caught her just as she jumped off the couch to play some more.

Dance party!

Baby Beluga was mimicking Big Sis rocking her baby back and forth.

This is what we do...a lot.

 We had a day of fun surprises. We had heart notes dangling from the girls' bedroom doors (and Aunt D's door too!), special notes for each other, Handsome bought us all flowers, and and the girls made Handsome special love bugs. Aunt D surprised the girls with string cheese...cause they LOVE cheese, and bought us raspberries.

 And the biggest surprise of all...I thought Aunt D was busy in the kitchen making heart shaped pizzas for dinner, and then Handsome came home and slipped into the kitchen and set up Chinese food. I was so surprised when I walked in the kitchen! Aunt D had even turned on the mixer, and opened cupboards to make me think she was doing stuff in the kitchen. It was awesome and super easy dinner clean up.

After dinner, our Valentine's tradition is to give each child a new book and then we open a new game for the whole family.

Baby Beluga got a book called "Your Getting a Baby Brother" and Big Sis got "Ladybug Girl at the Beach."

It was a great Valentine's Day!

28 Weeks and Being Fancy

Dancing in circles around the living room--a favorite past time.

The neighborhood squirrels figured out we had bird feeders.

The girls thought it was awesome.

Baby Beluga is a huge arm band fan. 

The other day it got cold enough for some snow!

Dancing in her tutu.

Ready for her field trip to Krispy Kreme to see how doughnuts are made.

The arm bands again....it cracks us up.

Baby Beluga was still a bit sick so she stayed with me during the field trip and we did puzzles... 

and fixed the cart. 

Aunt D and Big Sis brought us back doughnuts. They shared a heart doughnut.

We had a Fancy Friday. We painted our nails pink and sparkles.

Big Sis wanted purple and blue on her nails.

Aunt D even curled her hair.
