We've had a fun time celebrating Valentine's this month! I think Valentine's Day comes at a perfect time, during such a "blah" time of year. Not that we need a reason to show our love to one another, but it's always nice to have an excuse to celebrate!
Brooklyn's hair is getting SO long (and needs to be trimmed). I was able to do some festive hair-dos for her, and she loved having hearts in her hair!
We decorated cookies again. I mean, who can ever get enough sugar cookies?!
Look what the little lady has been sporting lately! Don't get too excited though, shortly after this, she pulled them off and peed in the tile in the bathroom. She's pretty good though, and if I put more effort into it I know she'd be potty trained. Problem is she wants to stand like Jace when she goes potty...
Oh, the concentration!
Trevor even made pink marshmallow popcorn for the kids when I was out seeing patients one night! It was delicious! He even remembered to take pictures...although the kids were so excited they all turned out blurry.
And what's Valentine's Day without flowers?! I LOVE Lilly's!
On Sunday we had all of my family over (minus Nate & Fam who are in Pennsylvania) over for dinner. Trevor made his mom's lasagna recipe from scratch! It was the yummiest lasagna I've ever tasted!!
Here's Noah & Grandpa! That boy is growing up WAY too fast!
Here we are decorating our "Valentine House". We never decorated our ginger bread house at Christmas, so I got a bunch of Valentine's candy for the kids to decorate!
It was the saddest gingerbread house I've ever seen! Almost every piece was cracked some how, and Shel & I tried to fix it up the best we could. It ended up imploding at the end! The kids didn't care though....they were too busy eating the candy!
What a great way to spend the day of love, with those you love! Hope you all had a nice holiday!

Very cute pictures!! Good luck with potty training--we have the opposite problem at our house, Jack wants Elli to stand and she gets mad at him! Love the picture of your dad--totally his personality!
Oh how fun! You are such a cute mama. And how creative you are with her hair...I am always looking for new do's for Addie...I will have to try this one!

We had such a fun time Tiff! Thanks to Trevor for the BEST food ever! :) Our gingerbread house was pretty sad, but the important thing is that the kids LOVED it!:)
Ok those hearts in your girlies hair are extremely cute!! Demo??
V-Day was indeed a time to remember. Watching the excitement of the grandchildren almost wanted us to be young again. It we be wonderful if we could all get so excited about the simple, yet important things in life. It was wonderful, as always, to be with our special family and we sorely missed those who were not there to enjoy the event. It was a perfect ending to a special day. Love ya all.....
