Since we didn't make it to Elise's birthday party a couple of weeks ago due to the weather, we went this past weekend for a visit. The kids all had a fun time playing together, of course, and we adults always have a good time catching up.  Little Women Elise opening up her gift from us. Elise and Brynn playing with the Lego set we gave Elise. It was pretty nice on Saturday, so headed down to the barn to visit the cows. Goldie and Daisy are all grown up! Reagan and Elise tried getting Brynn into Clue, but it was Brynn's first time playing it and she thought it was rather complicated. Watching TV Tessa lent us her little play kitchen set. We have yet to find a more permanent spot for it, but the girls have been 'cooking' all kinds of things in there. Brynn had been saying for some time now that she doesn't like her bed next to the window. We have some struggles at night time between storms, nightmares and out...

We didn't really do anything specific for Valentines Day, but Brynn had a party at school on Friday and Clara exchanged valentines with her buddies as well.  Daddy had to lower the crib so litlte monkey wouldn't escape.  Aunt Cindy sent me this idea, and since Clara's room at daycare is so into Minions, I thought it would be fun for her to bring these. Some of Clara's loot. I loved all the creative gifts! Clara's valentine art. I asked Brynn if she wanted to make a specific themed valentines box, but she just wanted to decorate a Kleenex box. She ended up adding a 'sucker holder' which was Minion themed.  The valentine card Brynn made for me: Brynn did not want to do traditional valentines with candy this year, so she opted for conversation hearts. Notice the little heart on Blake's box. Looks like he may have been Brynnie's valentine. ;-)  Brynn had a friend stay for a sleepover on Saturday...
