  Chilling outside while mommy and daddy shovel.. so much snow.....
  
  QOTW:I really debated whether or not I'd get Hannah a Valentine's gift, but she just had her birthday so I decided not too. But I for sure will be making heart shaped food on Valentine's day for her.

  Trying again here. If it loads, the pic is of JJ at my office yesterday. DH brought her in. I'm not sure why she is making the goofy face but she is wearing her valentines day jumper.
  
  No special plans for valentines day. I do collect cards for her though. We have all the baby's 1st holiday cards for her.

  Here is E's first pony tail. I can't believe my baby had a pony tail. At first she was really upset about it, but once she saw it in the mirror she was obsessed! Now she constantly runs to the bathroom and points at her rubberband begging for another pony tail.
  They are having a party at school. I guess we will make some little cheapy v day cards. I bought her an outfit. That's about it.

  QOTW: We bought DS a puzzle and book for Valentine's Day and he'll wear a cute red outfit that day. For daycare, I stole this idea from Pinterest. They're having a party in Friday. I wasn't planning on doing them since he's so young but his teacher said some parents were planning on bringing something. I couldn't let DS go in empty handed!!
