Heart Strings

We celebrated Valentine's Day at the library on Thrusday. What was the story about?? Well, I think it was about raining hearts. Sophie Clare was not really into sitting still. Although, she never really pays that close of attention at least she sits still.

We had a special suprise.......Aunt Annie and Gracie!

The girls were so cute as was Max!

They made cute little heart strings out of toliet paper rolls.

After that you will never guess where we went to eat?????

GIVE UP??

Chick-Fil-A

We had a great time as usual but we are thinking of taking a break from Story time for a couple of week. Who knows what we will get into!

My Sweet Valentine!

I would say Happy Wednesday but its  about about 9 mins aways from being  Thursday. :-)
By the time I actually get finish, it will be Thursday so
 HAPPY THURSDAY!  My Wednesday did not go quiet as planned. I thought I was going to do my grocery shopping and then SC was complaining with her ear. Last week was such an up and down week that I did not give her meds like I should.

 I know, mom of the year!! 
Anyways, ear drops and to finish up meds. We are on the road to recovery! ;-) 

So let's back it up a bit to Tuesday.........

VALENTINE'S DAY!!  

We woke up and were excited that we were meeting some very special friends for a Valentine breakfast at Chick- fil- a.

Here is my sweet Valentine!

Matia Grace and Sophie Clare ready to play!

Chick-fil-a was truly celebrating Valentine's day with flowers and heart shaped biscuits.

When we finished playing, we rushed in Hobby Lobby and GW really quick. Why were we in such a hurry??  We had to get to Sr lunch at church of course. They have the best food ever! We have some Amazing cooks!!  A couple of the ladies made a heart shaped cake!

They were delish!

Let me talk about how great these grapes were!!!!!!!

 OH so GOOD!!

 Frozen grapes rolled in jello!

 YUMMY!!

When we got home, we had have wonderful surprise on our door. Sweet Luke had left her a Valentine and she was super excited.

.

She was not really into taking a nap but after a couple of tries, she was out! When she woke up, I could not wait to give SC her Valentine!

 I told her to close her eyes and wait for her surprise!

Sophie Clare and her bag of goodies.

We got her way to much but when she is the one and only it is so hard, 

She loved all her goodies! After her bath, we put on her Valentine pj's and got busy in her workbooks.

Coloring the circles.......................

tracing Grover.......................................

We had a fabulous day and ended with Jamie picking up a pizza!

It was a fabulous day!



Happy Valentine's Day

Today is the day of LOVE and I spending with my sweet Sophie Clare!

Last week we worked on Valentine pictures to send to family.

 The first day did not go so swell.

These were  just a few of the looks I was getting! :-)

Then we went  back on Wednesday morning and she was all smiles!

Happy Valentine's Day!

I  hope you all have a great day!!

A Cubbie Valentine

Hey hey!

It is Monday and guess what????????

Sophie Clare is walking just about all day long! YAY!! I love her being little and I love carrying her around. But let me just say a 30 pound baby gets heavy and my neck starts hurting. I will carry her till her legs drag the ground though!

Wednesday night we started our Valentine celebration at  church. Our bible verse was

......love one another. 1 John 3:11

Here is my sweet love ready for Puggles!

doing her "excited" face!

Sophie Clare and I made Valentines for her class and mine. We even used our Bible verse on them as it was fitting.

I cut them out a heart and wrote on them with a white crayon. If you color them with "water colors" it reveals a secret message!

How cool is this??

I love it!

Sophie Clare and I also made cookies for them. We let them decorate them with there very own icing and sprinkles.

Then it was time for SC to hand out the Valentine's

We had a super fun night and we are going to continue to celebrate God's love Wednesday night!

We have a very special morning planned and I can't wait to give Sophie Clare her Valentine tomorrow!

I hope you all have a fabulous day tomorrow!!

A Fun Saturday With The Girls

Burrr it is cold outside on this sun shining Sunday afternoon. 

 Yesterday, Aunt Angie dropped the girls of at my mom and she stopped by our house to visit Sophie Clare. She brought her a get well/Valentine gift.

It was a cute cute t shirt with an S on the front of it.

Thank you Aunt Annie!!

When Angie left it was off to my moms. Sophie Clare was still not walking and I was ready to see how she would do around the girls. Emily pushed her in the baby stroller and took good care of her. Sophie Clare finally did some duck walking and scooting but that's it.  They played, made Valentines, looked at old pictures and ate pizza. We also went to visit our grandmother for a bit. Then is was time to play at our house. Sophie Clare enjoyed painting Gracie's toes while Em watches a little Tigger and Pooh.

Emily had gotten something on her jeans and needed something to wear. She put on this little outfit that was mine.  As we were digging in the old pictures, I ran across when I wore this outfit.

I think it is tooo cute!

We had a great day with the girls! I cooked dinner and we just relaxed around the house last night.  Sophie Clare finally took her first steps about 8:30. She ran and jumped all over the place. I was so excited to see her run! I believe this was just as exciting as when she took her very first steps. haha When we got up this morning she did not want to walk again. Finally I got her to and then she got her foot under the chair and hurt it. Now we are back to not walking again and we can't put a sock on her foot.  I just shake my head and smile.

This to shall pass.

I hope you all are having a great weekend.

 I am going to waste some time on Pinterest while SC naps!
