Valentine Decor

I have never been one to be really in to Valentine's Day - its not like I despised the day, but I just never have really gotten into it.  For some odd reason (I've yet to figure out what) I am SO into it this year!  I can't get enough of the red, pink, hearts, crafts, excitement surrounding the little Love day!  Josh thinks I'm into it because Zane is older now, I'm not sure if that's it since Zane has no idea what the day is nor is he really excited about it (due to the fact he has no idea what it is).  I've been really lucky and have married a man that loves Valentine's Day, so he has always made it special for me, even if I didn't really care about the day.  This year, I hope to make the day special for all 3 of the boys/man in my life!

Anyway, thanks to Pinterest I even have some Valentine decor up in my house!  Nice to copy other people's great ideas and make them my own in my house!!  Thank you to everyone who had the time to come up with these fun, cute ideas!

Its not much, but it sure is a lot more than I've ever had up in my house!
The heart banner idea I found here.

On one of my favorite blogs I stalk I found this adorable printable (Katie found the same one)!
I love it!

And I found this little gem via Pinterest as well!  Printed it out at Costco and framed her up!

Ok, that's enough mushy stuff for now folks :)

So Proud!

I arrived at daycare to pick Zane up tonight and noticed he had a medal around his neck.  I asked him if that was the medal he got at camp last summer and his teacher chimed in and said that Zane received that medal today because he volunteered to pick up a big mess in the classroom that he didn't make!!  Zane's unfortunately used to that now that he has a little brother, but its nice to know that he is taking that good behavior to school with him too!  Its the little things like this that make me so proud of my little man!!

Superbowl Sunday

We decided to hold a last minute Superbowl gathering at our house this last Sunday and I'm glad we did!  It was fun to have people over, eat some yummy, bad for you food, mix fruity drinks, watch the commercials and some of the game!



Zane goofing off before people showed up!

The three babies playing - for once Landon was out-numbered by girls!
(By the way, I promise you, Landon had pants on for most of the day
but for some reason all of the pictures I have of him, he is pant-less)!






Zane enjoying a cupcake after the game!

Mechanic in training...

Zane snagged a pair of Josh's gloves for the garage and instantly started working on Landon's truck!  It was pretty cute!



Soccer

Zane was all signed up to start a new soccer session last Saturday and he was more than excited to get back out onto the field!  We arrived about 10 mins before his class was supposed to start and after trying to check him in, we were notified that the class was no longer at 10 a.m., but now at 8 a.m.!!!  WHAT?  Thankfully, there were other classes offered in the week for this session, so we signed him up for Thursday nights at 6:30 p.m.  This is going to make my Thursday nights horrible, but its worth it for my Zane!  So this Thursday will be his 1st class of the session and again, he can't wait!

After breaking the news to Zane and drying up his tears :( - we headed out onto an empty field and he and Josh played a little "invisible" soccer!  He had fun and got over his being upset rather quickly!




And of course Landon was there to invisibly cheer he big brother and daddy on!


Or try to charge the field!


Josh had to go to work later that afternoon (by the way, I'm getting really tired of him having to work weekends - its bad enough I don't see him during the week, but now the weekend...ugh).  After Landon's nap, I took the boys to the park and Zane again kicked around the ball for a bit!  I think he'll be more than ready for Thursday to come!!
