Valentine's Day

We don't really get excited about Valentine's Day in our house.
The girls aren't old enough to experience the excitement of commercialized paper valentine and candy exchange at school. Soon enough I will have the goal of hand making paper valentines for all the girls' friends and classmates...we will work for weeks deciding what to make and what candy sucker is best..then inevitably just before bedtime on the 13th of February I will realize I'll never get them done in time (as with seemingly EVERY project since our little #2 arrived) and we will venture to Target to pick out special princess or pooh (or whatever is popular then) paper valentines to quickly fold, stuff and lick (the yucky tasting little envelopes) in time for school the next day.
I digress...

This year Kennedy wore the special Valentine sleeper we had from Madison's first v-day.


She was slightly less thrilled about having her photo taken while Matt bathed Madison. Although she did enjoy pulling on the pink footie part of her sleeper.


(Recall Madison this time 2 yrs ago-she had just learned to sit up on her own)


By the end Kennedy was quite frustrated with me and I worked hard to get pics of her grumpy face. Which wasn't too tough as you can see.


The girls wore their cute, new $.99 hats from Old Navy all day, too.

Talk about fabulous clearance!


I love these hats- they each have them in a blue variety as well.

Kennedy's blue one is a little big so look forward to seeing these hats for a long time to come!


Madison and I did manage to make one Valentine before the day was over. She enjoyed putting together a flower face and lots of glitter.
