C and I talked earlier this week about how Valentine's day is a special day to show the people we love how much we love them, even though we show it every day. I asked her if she had any ideas of how she would like to show her daddy and E how much she loves them. She told me that she would like to make her daddy a cake, and that she would let E play with her barbies.
I picked up a little wooden heart picture frame for a dollar at Michael's on Tuesday, so C painted it and put some glittery heart stickers on it for her daddy for Valentines. I have to get a picture of the girls to put into the frame for him.
I am interested to see where daddy decides to put this spangly picture frame :)
We also made some really cute Valentine's shirts for the girls. I had picked up a couple plain long sleeve shirts at Target on clearance. We used fabric paint and painted on some paper heart shaped doilies, and then pressed them onto the shirt to make a lacy heart print.
I was supposed to wash the shirts first, but didn't, so hopefully it holds up to a wash. I meant to take a few pictures of the process, but was didn't really manage that because of trying to keep the paint from getting EVERYWHERE.
So here is the final product.
C's:
She looks so proud of herself! Here is E's shirt:
I will share a picture of the girls in their V-Day shirts coming up!
