Valentine’s Day Recap

 I still can’t believe that Valentine’s Day was already a week ago!
Valentine’s Day felt more like Christmas morning, as we woke up to all of our family arriving from their overnight roadtrip from Iowa. We were rocking our red & ready to make a festive breakfast for our guests. Harper looks still half asleep here, but the fluffy bed head makes my day. She may also still have been confused about the Happy Birthday Eve song that I came bursting into her room singing just prior to taking this picture.
 Hello Sweatshirt, Red Pajamas

I know my heart shaped pancake actually looks like a shoe-print, but that’s just me being entirely too lazy to use a mold or cookie cutter & free-hand-pouring it from a measuring cup. But I assure you, some of them actually looked like hearts. And they all tasted like funnel cakes because I cook pancakes in oil. And they’re the shit.
We shopped for some birthday goodies, did a little party decorating & ate more heart shaped food.

UPDATE: I’m embarrassed to even note this, but my shirt is Crewcuts from J.Crew. I went to buy it for Harper but all they had left was the largest kids size 14…. so I got it for myself. You can find it here.

 Heart shaped grilled cheese bites were a big hit! 🙂 This is so easy because you can use cookie cutters of any shape to make festive lunches for any holiday! I even caught my husband fishing me out a red peanut m&m (even though I typically go for the blue!) because he knew I would want the festive one for Valentine’s Day. 
I know, grow up Peter Pan. I seriously can’t help it.

Olive, My Love
More pics to come tomorrow of her actual birthday & the donut cake that she polished off in a hot second. Hashtag, sweet tooth like mama! 🙂

Easter 2023 🐰 Would like to point out that I di Easter 2023 🐰 Would like to point out that I didn’t find them any cute matching pajamas this year but they took it upon themselves to find some in their closets & dressed accordingly. They also surprised US with an Easter egg hunt around the house with recycled Easter eggs filled with hand written notes and coupons to cash in for hugs, compliments, etc. How did we get here?! The girls could hardly sleep Saturday night bursting with excitement to host our friends & neighbors for donuts in the morning, they were up before the sun ready to start setting the tables & rolling dough. For everyone reading this with babies & toddlers, just know that all of those sweet traditions you are creating will make a home in their hearts, and one day they’ll be the ones making the magic for you. 🤍🤍🤍
