Unforgettable Valentines

while we're waiting to hear back about a potential home in FL,
(and to keep myself from going crazy with anxiety)
B and I decided to have a little CRAFT DAY to make some super cool Valentines for family...

 i popped onto Pinterest for some ideas, only to spot this super-adorable guy.


 it was toddler-friendly, and looked easy enough...
so i went around gathering supplies.
as soon as i brought out the "google-eyes," B was game... 
sister loves her some google-eyes!

 it turns out that i had already packed up the construction paper,
 so i had to bust open a box to retrieve it...
 it was well worth it, though. ;)
of course, B wasn't much into the whole tracing part...
or the cutting part...
but when the glue and google-eyes came out, she was ready to participate!

and we did have to take a small break to dance during key songs on Cinderella...
these days, it is not uncommon to see B randomly dancing or singing...

as i said before... at this stage, B just isn't really into the "preparation" aspect of our crafts...
but my glue-lovin' gal is always ready to get sticky!
 
 and she loves to help "blow" on the glue to help it dry... very essential. ;)

 

we made a few purple and a few pink... 
and as soon as they dry, they will be ready to send out to all of B's special valentines!

i hope you all are enjoying your preparations 
for Valentine's Day!

So fun!! We were lazy and ordered the girls' valentine cards for school off Shutterfly. I DO want to do one for their daddy though that's crafty. I'm hoping to get supplies tomorrow and make it Saturday morning while he's volunteering at their school for a parent work day. :)
