Happy Balentime's Day!

Mabel really liked this holiday.  We got out our decorations

early and she helped me arrange them around the house.

All month long she loved wishing everyone she saw a 

Happy "Balentimes" Day! So cute.

We made sugar cookies for daddy that week:

(PS: Sugar cookies with frosting are my weakness.
I think I ate a dozen.)

Mabel got a special Valentine package in 

the mail from Nana and Grandpa Kraig!

The best part was her VERY OWN tape!

She always wants to use my tape dispenser to

get tape to "fix" things but she gets so frustrated because

she has a hard time tearing the tape off and it gets

all stuck to itself.  So this was the perfect solution 

from Nana! The tape pops up in perfectly cut

sections and it's super easy to pull out and use.

We Skyped with Nana and Aunt Kels when she opened it.
(Gotta love that cheesy squint smile!)

There were also a bunch of balloons in the package
that we had a lot of fun blowing up and bouncing around.

Nate made his girls a special Valentine's breakfast:

Pink heart shaped pancakes...

with pink milk for Mabel and

a purple smoothie for me! 

Mabel gave daddy his Valentine:

Mabel got two cute Valentines from 

her friends! I should have thought to help

her make some to pass out because she would

have loved that! Next year.

     

We went to Zupa's for dinner, put Mabel to bed,

and had some friends over to play games!
