Valentines Eve!

So I realize this is a holiday that doesn't usually gets it's Eve celebrated... But I just had too much love to keep all in one day! 

We had kind of a bad morning, so Trev desired to give himself a much needed break and went fishing. During quiet time Zach was so quiet... I found him like this :)

He hasn't napped for months now... I was thrilled he was snoozin! 

We do a toy rotation and today Zach got out the 'Kitchen Set' toys. A super old kitchen we got at DI years ago... And lots of pretend food and cash registers and wallets and phones, etc. Hannah always plays really well... But I've never seen her soooo happy playing. She was content forever!!! (And yes- she's finally walking! Still no teeth though!) 


I just had to put this in... My great friend Leslie gave her this purple hat. When she sees it she pats her head until I put it on. I just thought she was so bloomin cute in all purple!!! (And those big blue eyes!)


After homework and getting final touches on outgoing valentines... The time had finally come! I've been cooking up this idea for awhile! For our Valentine's Eve dinner celebration we had breakfast.... 


Heart pancakes, bacon, and eggs!!!! (And if your wondering... Yes we had to make 4 batches of pancakes... A normal and a pink or gluten free and a normal and a pink of regular) 

I got out the most love day themed shapes... Cameron did a flower. Then he felt like that was too girly and called it a snowflake :)


Zach did a train... Cupid has to get there somehow!


Owen was feeling so proud I his heart fingers. (It is pretty cute)


Owen did double hearts.

After we cleaned up dinner we had pink floats!

The kids liked them... But the babies LOVED them! 


Hannah kept smacking the table in between bites. She loves to get her brothers laughing!


After they all got jammies on the older boys wanted to teach Zach their new skill of sit ups (I taught them the couch trick yesterday when they did them for their elementary schools daily 'heart' healthy challenge).


I'm so lucky to have SIX amazing valentines in my life!!!!
