Colin had about 13 friends over for a Valentine's Day playdate! They played, ate, decorated bags and exchanged Valentine's. It was a great morning and the kids and mommies had lots of fun!

Here are some of the kids decorating their bags...





Here is Colin putting a Valentine card and some bubbles into each of his friend's bags:



Here is his buddy Hunter taking a turn:



PS, the blue wall in the background is our new kitchen color! I painted it all by myself!! The old color was the same color as the rest of the house that you can see in the other pictures!

We sat down today after dinner to make cards for Brandon and Colin's friends. They each did a really good job of putting them together by themselves. They love anything having to do with monkeys and actually picked them out at the store themselves too! And this was one of the first craft projects that Colin REALLY got in to. He had a blast, did all 10 of his by himself and did a great job!











And this is what happens when Brandon decides he wants to use the camera...a view from his world...





ps. see that bruise/bump on Colin's forehead? YIKES! Fell out of the chair at dinner the other night, reaching for a piece of bread he dropped!

Between Brandon and Colin's clothes from birth to size 2T, there are many things that I have given away to friends, donated to charity, sold in yard sales, cut up for my onesie quilts and have stored away to keep "just in case"...

AND...

we still had this leftover:



225 items that i hung, tagged and priced for a consignment sale. The sale ended yesterday and I actually sold 80 items for a grand total of $156! Not sure what I'll do with what's left, but I was happy to get a good chunk out of Colin's closet...
