Jonathan's Age

Diana's Age

Jonathan deserved his "participation" trophy from wrestling tonight. This little boy worked very hard at every practice, listened to his coaches and discovered his new favorite sport.

Minnie Dress

Diana and Jonathan are getting excited to visit "Mickey's House" as Diana calls it.  I saw this adorable little dress on Etsy but decided to try and make it myself.  Thankfully I had craft night last night with some mom's from church so I was able to cut out the fabric and pick up a couple of tips from my crafty friends.  Today when I should have been cleaning, I decided I would sew the dress instead.  It was so much fun to make and I must say I am quite proud of how it turned out.  My mom would be proud!  I do still need to applique Mickey on but that will be easy.  Diana keeps asking if I am done with her dress, so I better get working on it!

LOVE

Seriously, how cute are these two?  Just snuggling together on the floor.  Jonathan is making a heart with his hands.  They adore each other and it melts my heart every time.

Cookie Decorating

I took Diana to decorate Valentine cookies today with HPPE.  What a fun event!  Diana was very focused on frosting and decorating her cookies.  Of course she did it all by herself.  She was given three cookies and she immediately said one would be for Jonathan.  They still look out for each other.  Diana and I then went to story hour and ran into one of Diana's friends from school, Olivia.  They listened very well to the stories but liked the songs the best.

Art Glass Nightlight

I signed Jonathan up for an art class today to make a glass nightlight in hopes that it would be made for the hallway but I was quickly informed that it was going to be for his bedroom.  Jonathan really enjoyed making his nightlight and had this whole plan in his head on what it was going to be.  I must say I was impressed with how it finished.  It's been fired in the kiln so we are excited to see what it will look like when it comes out.


Home Depot Building Workshop

The kids and I ventured to the Home Depot kids build-a-workshop again today.  They got to make cool race cars today. Jonathan even painted a racing stripe on his.  I guess it was supposed to be Bumble Bee from Transformers.  Of course Diana's was pink and purple.  She did add some black surprisingly.

Snuggle Time

Nothing like snuggle time with Daddy on a Saturday morning.  You would have thought they were watching cartoons, but nope.  Just a little history channel about stealth airplanes.  I then introduced Jonathan to some Top Gun movie clips.
