Valentine Making Adventures

While Andrew was at the Men's Retreat this morning (with Dr. Cuddeback . . . can you say jealous?? At least Andrew came home for his check book so he could buy the book!), the kids and I worked on making Valentines.

It was an adventure, to say the least. And a learned a lot. For example, did you know that if you heat a hard boiled egg in the mircowave it explodes? It makes a pretty impressive noise, too. I can't tell you just how long you have to cook it, but I do know that at the time of the sonic boom, the timer read 31:42.

Some how I think Andrew's morning was a little . . . quieter.

And the Valentine's . . . they got made, but they may be lacking the candy to which they were supposed to be attached. Some people just can't handle seeing candy and not eating it.

I doubt those men at Church grew in patience as I did this morning. Or maybe I didn't . . .

I haven't read your blog in forever! You are such an awesome mom, Sarah! I didn't have quite as much fun making Valentines. Though, Chiara did fill out some store bought ones, (even though I suggested homemade)only to decide a few days later (ie. the night before her school Valentine Party) to hand make them. Somehow I wonder if she got the idea from someone else because these days she tends to do the opposite of whatever I think would be fun!

And a comment for the baby name post from awhile back: I think all of your children's names are lovely! I have also had many a negative comment on my own children's names. Vincent is the one that seems to offend people the most - which was incredibly shocking to me! I thought he had the most 'normal' name in the bunch - Vincent William. I've heard negativity over the other three kids' name, but nothing like this! So weird!

I just wanted to let you know I'm on edge waiting to hear from Annie if you're having twins or not! I don't know what you're hoping for, but I hope you are. A two for one deal!

Have a great Sunday!
