Making our Valentine's Day Cards

Today we spent A LOT of time making Valentine's Day Cards. Gracyn has a little party at preschool tomorrow and I had the brilliant idea that instead of buying the princess or Tinkerbell pre-made cards we would make our own. Now, that make have been a good idea if we were making 8 but she has 18 kids in her class and 4 teachers. Needless to say, making 22 Valentine's took a very long time and to be honest I had to forge ( aka color, glitter, and sticker ) the last 4. Gracyn did have a good time though and Michael joined in on the fun. Michael enjoys coloring too but today he seemed to have more fun sticking the markers in his eyes and up his nose. So, since Michael has been sick for the last weeks.................markers up the nose meant blue boogers! Enjoy the photos.

1st Hair Cut

Gracyn had her first haircut last Friday, February 5th! Yes, she is 3 1/2. I finally broke down and had her get a hair cut. We only cut an inch off though. She has such beautiful hair that one inch was about all I could handle. She did great too. She played with a little fishing game the whole time. So, here are a few pictures of Gracyn and her first trip to the salon.

ABCs and 123s

Michael loves to sing the ABC song. Now, he doesn't really know the letters yet but he sure tries. It sounds more like this......
A B C D D D D E I D D D D O......
It's so darn cute. He is also a big fan of "Row your Boat."

Gracyn is convinced that there is a number "frelve." You haven't heard of it either? Apparently it comes right after the number 20. Lately every time she counts (which for some reason is often) she ends it with 18, 19, 20, "frelve." Maybe she knows something I don't.
