We celebrated big in our house the last couple of weeks we have been doing little Valentine's Day things here and there. We watched a couple of movies "Winne the Pooh's Valentine" being one of the boys' favorite- on VHS no less! We baked cupcakes for our playgroup, painted our hands, got our photos taken in "Robot" shirts made by Mommy, made handprint cards for our family, made Daddy a fun picture frame, heart shaped Rice Krispie Treats... just to name a few! We even did some learning activities for the boys such as heart patterns, making sticky Valentine Hearts (small motor skills), heart balloon batting game, making play dough hearts, and sensory things for Maxwell as well. I know we did a few other things I am forgetting, but all in all it was a fun holiday! Here are some pictures of our February so far!
Cards we sent to Grandparents and Daddy. Jackson even wrote his own name. Jackson's handprint was on the outside and Maxwell's on the inside. Found this idea on Pinterest. I changed it to fix us, but it was so cute!
Life is Sweet.

My VERY talented friend, Rachel Martyn took these great pictures of the boys at her new studio in her basement! She is so GREAT! The boys were less than cooperative, but it was fun overall and there were a couple of great pictures out of the bunch!!
