Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day is almost over! We had a good one here! This week, the weather has actually been in the 40s occasionally, so that was so nice. We actually got out of the house quite a bit. And Fox and I had a date on Friday--hooray! Our friends Elizabeth and Gabe babysat while we went to eat at the Indian Oven and had yummy coconut kurma. It was so delicious (and not Scobby-Dooby--pee-yucky as Cash likes to say).

Cash and I picked out a mailbox at the craft store and brought it home to decorate. This little project kept him busy for an hour! He was so happy!

Opening his Robot-stickered (no girly hearts here!) mailbox to find his Valentines this morning (Don't worry, Mom--there was only one piece of candy in there!):

I found this cute idea for krispy-cones online. Cash and I whipped these up with a sour cherry ball on top and then took him to his neighborhood buddies:

Testing it out--yummy!

And of course, what's a blog post without a picture of my little ankle biter (yep, she's at the cat-tail-pulling, pinching, bite-for-fun stage!):


*I just noticed Cash is wearing the same shirt in these pictures, even though the first picture is from earlier this week. He wants to wear his santa pajama top every single day! Don't worry, we wash it often. But, should I be discouraging this? This is the first time Cash has ever been picky about clothing!
