Hello! We are thankful to finally (fingers crossed) be over the latest bout of stomach virus at our house. This has been quite the season for us! To celebrate feeling better, we worked on some fun Valentine's Day things on Sunday. I snapped a few pictures along the way. Ella's bringing butterfly valentines to Kinder Kollege this year. No boring M&M candies for this little lady!
See - BO-RING....
But, add a foam heart sticker and some pipe cleaner antennae....and
TA DA!
Beautiful butterflies
We both had a good time making these.
I handled the pipe cleaners and Ella put on the hearts!
I found a cute tag "You make my heart flutter Valentine!"
which I'm going to add to each and then Ella can sign her name!
Later, we made some delicious mini heart shaped cakes. YUM! I used a box mix, but made homemade chocolate frosting. I tried a new recipe because I couldn't find any others at home and I will totally use it again! It was really delicious and spread on the cakes wonderfully! Link to the recipe here. Ella worked on her fine motor skills frosting those little cakes! She did a great job. :)
YUM!
(and if you look closely, you'll see that she is eating just the top of the cake first -
a mouthful of chocolately frosting goodness!)
In other news, we have Kindergarten Round-Up in a few weeks. WHAT?! I can't believe it!!
