I don't want to brag, but...

I got a new coffee maker...

He is covering his ears because the coffee grinder is loud, but he insists upon doing it - I'm not making him make mama her coffee!




And it's REALLY cute!!

Andrew is obsessed with helping me with every step of coffee making! He pours in the water, grinds the coffee beans, puts them in the coffee maker, and pushes start. What a cute little coffee maker!

100th Day of School

The girls celebrated the 100th day of school last week. Here they are with their 100th day hats. They learned to tally in groups of five, so they made 100 tally marks on the streamers around and hanging off the back of the hats.They also had to make projects out of 100 popsicle sticks. Here is Isabella's, she had Daddy for her partner:Here is Gianna's - she had Mommy for her partner:And here is the portrait made by everyone, just for fun and to get Andrew involved:

Valentine's Day - continued...

We had a little family Valentine's Day party after school...

Daddy brought home chocolates for all of us and flowers for the girls and for me.

Goodies from Aunt Jane.

Even the packaging was cute as usual - Gianna insisted on a picture before opening hers!

Of course the girls love their princess books!!!

I don't know if Aunt Jane knew this, but Andrew is soooo into Mickey Mouse right now. He keeps saying he wants a Mickey birthday party!

Happy Valentine's Day!

These are the cards the girls took to school (from TinyPrints.com). Isabella chose hers because she was Little Red Riding Hood for Halloween. Gianna loves animals, and is our own little Snow White and the Seven Birds!
