Valentine's Prep 2014

Today me and the kids ran errands and got the kids Valentine's.  I love putting together little bags of goodies together with the kids for Valentine's Day.  There usually isn't a lot of other things going on in February and it makes for a fun afternoon.  First each kiddo picked out their Valentine's they wanted to give out at the store and then picked candies and bags to pack.  Katelynn decided this year that she needed to pick one type for the girls and another for the boys in her class.  She was fabulous this year about writing all the kids names and hers on all of her Valentine's.  Junior didn't get into it quite as much, but he did hang out around to help eat some of the candy.

Junior turns 5 !

It's hard to believe that Junior has already turned 5.  What joy he has brought to us.  He has the best little smile and such a good heart.  He is a little stubborn when it comes to homework from preschool and helping clean up, but he is a pretty sweet little boy to have around.
We finally gave Junior a big birthday bash this year.  We rented out a gymnastics place and invited friends to join us for 2 hours of fun. Junior loved it.  We gave him some presents at the birthday party and then when he woke up on his actual birthday Sunday there was a big fancy new bike waiting in the living room for him!  He can't wait for the snow to melt to ride it.  I should note that we had his birthday party on Saturday since his birthday this year fell on Super Sunday and the Broncos were in the Superbowl I figured we would have a low, low turnout if we did it on Sunday.

Here are a few pictures from his birthday.
