I would have posted these pictures yesterday...but our electricity went out last night unexpectedly...haha, whatever.
I woke up this morning with this cute note on my door:
Valentines day is Max's exact half-birthday...he was so excited that he was now a whopping 5 and a half!
The kids worked had on their Valentines to give to their friends and their classmates...we had them ready to go long before the big day. Here's what we did:
This awesome snack mix that I found on Pinterest with those little strawberry melt-away yogurt things for babies, yogurt covered-raisins, Frosted Cheerios and strawberry frosted mini-wheats...such a cute idea. That was what Ivy gave her little girlie friends:
...and Max worked on writing 'from Max' 45 times, and punching out little circles on the back of these while I stapled...and then we both stuffed the pockets with Pop Rocks. So fun to make, and he was so excited to bring them to school!
Anyways, we've been doing Valentine-themed activities for the last two weeks: don't eat Val, Valentines Remove and Roll, Conversation Heart counting, observing, graphing, etc...lots of fun activities...I wasn't really planning on having my kids around all day today...especially Max...it was his Valentine pass-out party after all. (idea from I am Momma)
This eye is brown:
and this eye is blue:
but apparently somebody thought they looked pink when we took Ivy to the Dr for a little teeny rash on her cheek...good thing Max tagged along and we were able to get the drops right away! So, Pink eye for Valentines day...so appropriate!
So, we read all of our Valentine books, dressed in our V-day best...and because we have a common area and we couldn't really play outside, we watched movies! woo hoo!
Luckily, Max gets to go back to school tomorrow!
