Valentine's Day 2011

Heart shaped pancakes for breakfast, yummy!

Christmas/Valentine's Day dress Nannie made for Blakely.

After we got home from work Nannie stopped by with a few Valentine's goodies for Blakely.

Opening....

Blakely was SO excited about her new pillow!

She tried it right out...

She LOVES it! I had not even had a chance to wash it that night and she was asking for her pillow when we put her to bed!

Blakely also got a fun princess sticker book.

Neal opened our goodies from my parents - it was Schwans!

Then Blakely opened her little gifts from Mommy and Daddy! Some pink nail polish - someday she will sit still so I can put some on!

Her new laptop! She is obsessed with the "puter" when we use it so now she has her own to play with.

She can carry it around the house.

Here she is testing it out. We had a great Valentine's day! After Blakely and I went to bed Neal and I fixed dinner and watched a movie.

Valentine's Day Party!

Here is Miss. B at her Valentine's Day Party at daycare. They made USPS hats to "deliver" the Valentine's in.

Blakely's teacher had put Blakely's hair into a little ponytail.

Waiting her turn to deliver Valentines.




Each kiddos Valentine's box lined up.

When they were done with Valentine's it was snack time. Blakely got her chair and set it down at the table.

Ready to eat! She was the first one to the table! haha.

Cupcakes!

She went for the frosting first - yummy! I love going up to the school parties and seeing how Blakely acts around the other kids and teachers. It was a fun afternoon.

Reading time

Blakely loves to read, the other day I caught her reading to Tucker!

Uh oh, I think Tucker is about to get up! Hold on tight.

Blakely loves to sit in her rocking chair by herself like a big girl and read.

So cute!

Neal's 30th Birthday!

Good Morning! Neal wanted his mom's biscuits and gravy recipe so I got that from her and made him a yummy breakfast! With a candle, of course.

Then he opened presents, a Kinect! Fun! He thought that it was shoes, haha!

Cupcakes at his party.

Matthew and Greg giving it a try!

Then my mom and I gave it a shot!

One more candle to blow out at the end of the night! I decided to do a BBQ + Beers theme and just have a laid back party with good bbq and beer, it was perfect! It was a fun night and it was so great to see so many wonderful friends that we had not seen in awhile.

We have had lots of snow the past couple of weeks and more is on the way! Blakely loves it and wants to go play outside in the snow all the time! Brrr....
