First, I grabbed my camera at naptime the other day so I could get a video of Cash singing his bedtime ritual with me. I hope you can hear him - just try and ignore me. Oh - and I accidentally covered up the microphone when I had to move my hand to pull the covers off of his face so there's a silent part, and unfortunately it's right at the end of "I Love to See the Temple" which is the cutest part. I love to hear him sing "Doo-dee!" Sorry. You can at least still see his lips moving! : )
Next up we have Miss Madison. Yesterday was Famous American day at school. All the 2nd graders picked a famous American from a list (which Michelle Obama was on. PUH-LEASE! She's barely been famous for a year. Hardly list-worthy! But I digress. . .) and they had to research their person, write a speech about it and come dressed up as their person to school to deliver their speech. Maddie was so excited and picked Pocahontas. I made her a costume (yes, all by myself with my sewing machine and without a pattern - GO ME!)
It wasn't much but I think it's pretty good for my very limited sewing skills. The parents weren't allowed to come to the presentations so I made her give us all a little preview before she left for school. It's kind of hard to hear her but I hope it comes out o.k.
Wish I had something to post about Ryley other than all the trouble that he's been in lately at school. I don't know what I'm going to do with that kid - besides have a nice weed-free frontyard!
Hope you all have a great Valentine's Day! We Love you!

Aw, so precious! Great job on Maddie's costume...very impressive. Sometimes I just can't believe how grown up she is!
Very cute. I love Maddies costume, looks awesome! Good idea on documenting the bedtime rituals. Those are the little things I worry about forgetting when they get older. So cute!
Cash is such a cutie! Maddie is too grown up for words. Great job on sewing---it seriously looks professional. And Ryley...oh boy. Good luck. I've officially decided I do NOT want any more boys!
Hooray for videos! Cash's facial expressions kill me. And Maddie is so big, I just can't even believe it. I'm very impressed with your sewing skills too -- my sewing machine has yet to see the light of day.
So fun! And the costume is awesome! Oh, and you totally had me laughing with the Ryley and the weeds comment. haha (but sorry he's been such a handful lately!)
Had to say...I've VERY impressed with Madison's costume. You've got skills!
