Valentine's Day Stuff


BOB decided to surprise me with some fish(talapia) from the store to fix for our "valentine" dinner. He had know idea how to prepare and cook fish, so I wonder if this is really a treat for me-- since I had to do all the cooking??? Anyway, the boys were doing their best to help by peeling potatoes. We were lucky no one lost a finger, and the meal came out pretty good.

I gave my little cupids a new book and silly string for Valentine's Day (since the grandparents did a grand job giving them enough candy). Here is the silly string getting used up. A lot of it landed in the pool. Which is about 40 degrees now. I am so ready for summer...we have had many freezing nights here this winter.

Owen and Theo decided to build while the class was playing bingo during the class Valentine Party. Maybe Owen will actually become an engineer or something someday with all this building he likes to do...
A mother can dream, right?
Here Owen is with a goofy smile and his hand-made valentine mailbox. Everyone passed out their valentine's to each other, and they had ice cream floats and cookies and then got to come home on the sugar high for the parents. Wasn't that a special valentine present for mom?
Truett wanted to have the superman cape on with his favorite frog pajamas. He "flew" around the house for hours playing like that. I'm pretty sure he actually thought he was getting off the ground and flying.

Truett has been working on his ability to wink, and here is a small video of it. His mouth is full of cake because we were celebrating valentine's day!
