Happy Valentine's Day

This being my first year as a full-time stay-at-home mom, I was so excited to have the opportunity to spend the full day with the kids and make Valentine's Day really special.

When Hannah woke up, I told her I had a special surprise waiting for her.

We made pink heart-shaped chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast.

However, the pink princess purse with the chocolates inside seemed to make Hannah even more excited than the pancakes.

The pancakes were pretty good, too!

Two of my three Valentines

After we got dressed and got Jack down for a nap, Hannah and I made heart cut-out cookies. Aunt Courtney would be so proud!


Our very first attempt at making cut-out cookies ever turned out surprisingly cute and very tasty!

For lunch, we had heart-shaped PBJ with strawberries (can you see we're big on food??).

We then had a picnic on Hannah's table.

For dinner, we made chicken parmigiana with linguine, Italian herb muffins, salad, and chocolate covered strawberries for dessert. A sweet ending to a sweet day.
