A little mud never hurt nobody...

While taking a walk with the boys after a little rain shower Donaven asked me if he could play in the puddles. Normally I would say no but this time I decided why not let them have a little fun.

 

Emerson was pretty pleased with himself. 

Valentines

I had a lot of fun decorating the house for heart day this year. Below is a heart garland made of construction paper and sewn together. Really simple yet satisfying. Along with a few other touches to complete that loving feeling ambiance I was going for.

Valentines started as a day like any other day. Emerson was sick and I took him in to see the doctor. I wiped noses and changed diapers most of the day, until Brandon came home with flowers in hand and Breaking Dawn (part 1). We had a lovely candle lit dinner then enjoyed the movie. It turned out to be a special day after all.

Proof

I don't know what overcame me but I suddenly got the strong desire to really deep clean the kitchen. After a few hours of hard work I stepped back and relished in the moment. There is something so completely gratifying to me about having a spotless kitchen. Then I pulled out my phone and took a few photos for proof because I knew it wouldn't last long.

A hiking we will go...

 Up, Up & Away...

Thank you Brandon for making feel so loved and celebrated today. I love you!

Glasses of his very own.

Emerson has a thing for glasses. He is constantly grabbing mine and running off with them. He thinks he is pretty funny. So I got him a pair of his very own (plastic that is).  He was pretty cute and excited to actually get to keep them.

 

I just can't get enough of those beautiful blue eyes! 

Panda!

 

Here Donaven is showing off his mad kungfu panda skills.

Thank you Angie for the gift card. We really enjoyed trying out the new Panda Express!
