Forget candy hearts and fancy chocolates. My heart beats faster when the apple wedger comes out.
Have you seen pinata apples at the store? They’re so yummy!
Just my submission to the texture contest!
I’m not really a cut and paste kind of person, which is why I never got into scrapbooking. I do like digital scrapbooking, but I just don’t have time to do it properly. But the kids? They LOVE cutting, pasting, taping, glueing…anything that involves making a big mess and getting sticky.
Last year, I heard about this program called Hearts For Kids on a local radio station. By the time we got supplies to make the cards, though, the deadline had passed. Oops. So this year I decided to get a head start, and we turned a schoolday into a big craftstravaganza.
My inner neatnik was a little bothered by this.
Of course you have to eat candy hearts while making Valentines. Even if they do taste like Tums.
AJ’s cards.
DJ’s cards.
A few of my faves.
AJ lost her first tooth yesterday…or had it pulled, actually. We noticed back in December that it was loose, and then we noticed about two weeks ago that the new tooth was coming in behind the baby tooth. Ick! I called the dentist the day we discovered that, and they looked at it but said it wasn’t loose enough to pull. Yesterday I had my own cleaning, so she came with me. The dentist came in and took one look at it, twisted it a little, and it just popped out. She was so excited to put it in her tooth fairy pillow last night! And she hath a little lithp, which ith tho, tho thweet!
