Happy Valentine's Day!

Connor made special treats for his friends in the toddler room at church. This was a three day project-
Day one: Make cookie dough (watch Mommy make dough, lick batter off of spatula when finished)-
Day two: cut out cookies and bake them-
"I wear an apron, just like Mommy!"
Very disappointed at the taste of flour-
Day three: icing and sprinkles/taste testing cookies-

Ta-da: Connor was officially in charge of all sprinkles and did an excellent job!Until we got tired and then it was some Imagination Movers as a distraction while mommy finished-

The finished project-
Wrapped up pretty and ready to deliver-We LOVE holidays around here. It doesn't really matter what holiday, it's an excuse to celebrate and buy gifts!
Connor loves his cards, especially the one that says "Elmo Loves You"- thanks Uncle Richard and Aunt Joy, Katie and Andy-

And we always love cards from Ma because they come with one of our favorite gifts (he's thinking about just how many cookies and/or books he can buy with this)

Valentine's morning: Yes, more books!
Swing- a book just like Gallop but about sports- a soon to be new favorite-
And a new camera- "just like mommy's"


The boys got mommy some pretty flowers- just having the two of them is enough for me but the flowers were gorgeous! (Oh yeah, and Colin got us tickets to see Elton John/Billie Joel too--see we all like holidays around this place)

YAY! Happy Valentines Day! We love holidays too...gifts are fun, cookies are fun, and having such sweet babies to share all that with is the best! He is so darn cute, and I love how much he helps bake!
