Emmett's 18 Month Photos

Emmett is now 19 months old but I'm just getting around to posting some of the picks we took during his 18 month photo shoot. 

Because at 18 months he is still totally into cars I figured thats what his 18 month pictures should focus on. I started taking pictures of him playing while big sis Brooklynn was napping...

but when she woke up...

the photo shoot was over

so I called in my friend Jessica to finish up for me...

Happy Valentine's Day

I had big plans for the kids' Valentines day this year. However, I was sick so I skipped the valentine themed dinner (pizza and strawberries both in a heart shapes) but I was basically able to pull everything else off.  Here are some pictures of the kids' Valentine's Day.

Brooklynn's valentine she handed to everyone we saw on Valentine's Day

She wrote on the back of each one - this took hours

Emmett's valentine - he even gave one to the cashier at the coffee house

After Preschool I took the kids to Higher Ground Trading Company so that Brooklynn could open her valentines from her friends and we could have a little treat.

Art Project

Brooklynn enjoys reading a book and then doing an art project that relates after. Normally we do this while Emmett is napping. However, he is starting to get old enough to enjoy it with us and not be too much for me to handle. We were reading Snowballs by Lois Ehlert and making our own snowmen over a weekend in early February so Daddy was home to snap a couple of pictures for us.
