Despite being pretty sick the last month or so, my kids still got to do some 'offbeat crafts' (as my coworkers like to say), or fun activities, for Valentine's day. Thank you to Aunti Bobbi and Jecca for making this possible!
Jecca came over the Tuesday before Valentine's day. She was supposed to babysit, but I was way to sick to go to work, so I sat on the couch while she played with the kids. She came armed with cupcakes and frosting for her and the girls to create dessert. They even dropped red food coloring into the cupcakes and swirled them.
And though Aunti Bobbi is far away she still helped us have fun this Valentine's day. She sent the girls a package from the popcorn factory of heart shaped popcorn balls! They came with icing 'glue' and candy to decorate each popcorn ball. The girls LOVED spending Valentine's afternoon playing (and eating) with candy!
We ended the day by our family going to El Jalepeno - our favorite Mexican food restaurant! There was even a live spanish singer (the girls loved it - but the adults thought it was a little loud). AND a nice couple sitting near us gave us a coupon to use :) LOVE THAT!
Another random addition to the Valentine's post: Hailey is potty training. For 2 days I got serious - taking her every hour - stickers and M&M's were the reward. She took off- no accidents, dry at night and naptime. She has been doing great for about a week now....EXCEPT for poop. She refuses to go in the potty. I am at a loss, but trying to be patient. Guess she'll just keep wearing pull-ups until we get it figured out :).

The finished product. Yes, 3 are separated....
These are the 3 that Hailey somehow licked or tasted in the decorating process :).
