It’s Valentine’s Day, ooh la la! Who spent the day sipping champagne and nibbling chocolate? Me neither. But I did spend the day with Denny and our favorite little ones. This year was a little different from past years. We substituted the wine for coffee, the hot stone massage for play-doh, and the surf n’ turf dinner for two for a pizza party for four.
But the holiday fun started a few weeks ago when we decided to get our Valentine craft on. I’ve been loving this time at home with my babies and we’ve been trying to take advantage of our extra time together to be creative. Over the past few weeks Makenzie has been enjoying painting so we try to squeeze in a few hours a week between lunch time and nap time to get messy.
Painting pal!
There’s no doubt that I still have a love/hate relationship with Pinterest, or shall I say Painterest (see my thoughts about Pinterest from my last maternity leave) BUT occasionally there is an idea simple enough even for me to do. This week we busted out the red and pink paints and made these:
Lots of love!
It was so fun and so simple that we made a total of three and then sent fun packages to the grandparents. The prints probably won’t hang in the Guggenheim, but they’ll always have a special spot on my wall and in my heart.
………………………..
We have a little heart breaker who will be waking up shortly for a midnight feeding. But until then, have a happy Valentines Day from these two little Loves to your little Loves!
I heart you!
XOXO,
Erin
