Day two and three

I think I've decided I'm just going to ban Derrick from looking at this blog until after Valentines so that I can post the crafts that Tori and I have been making that are going into his Valentines box. I know, that's awful, I've only had this blog for a couple of days and Derrick is already banned. It's ok though because it's only until after Valentines and He knows I love him. Tori loves making things to give to Daddy. She has been excited to put everything in his box when we are done so that he can have a present.
Yesterday (Day Two of our Valentines Craft Countdown) we made cute handprint Valentines. We made one from Tori to give to dad and one from Jaegen to me. (That way we all have things in our boxes on Valentines day).
Today (Day Three) we made a fence with a boquet of hearts. We took seven popsicle sticks and glued them together with Elmer's glue and then added a paper boquet and wrote on the sticks and also added a picture of Tori and Jaegen. I think it turned out way cute!
I almost ran out of room to write on the sticks, so if we do this one again, I'll probably write it with pencil first, or just be more careful :o). I cut everything out and thenTori dotted the glue onto the sticks so we could put everything together. She's a great helper! Jaegen slept through most of it. I'm sure he'll be a good helper one day too though.  

We had fun trying to take new pictures to put on the fence too.
My beautiful little girl!

Tori smiles funny when it's a forced ("Say Cheese") smile, so I have to try to be more entertaining so she smiles for real.

If they are sitting together she's going to want to hug her little brother.
My beautiful children
