Today Addison's birthday packages arrived from Grandma and Grandpa, along with Uncle Ryan and Aunt Lindsay's. Grandma and Grandpa sent money earlier but today Addie got a fun stamp and sticker set along with some Valentine's treats that we immediately hid until Sunday.
Grandma also sent this super cool heart scarf and Addison was so excited to have her own scarf like what Mommy wears. Kevin tried helping her put it on and Addison quickly corrected him in saying that "You only wear scarves outside, Daddy" She got a cute tutu skirt and a heartshaped necklace from Uncle Ryan, Aunt Lindsay and Cousin Emma. They also sent some great V-Day gifts that we have stashed away.
Today was a really busy baking day for mommy and the kids helped out a lot (whether mommy needed it or not). They were my royal taste testers...Addie had to make sure that the chocolate coated wands tasted okay. She ate one and said, "Mommy, I don't want my friends to have these." I asked her why, did they not taste good. She said, "No, they taste really good, I just want them for me."
Harry helped me clean up the beaters from the three different batches of chocolate cake I made for Addison's princess cake.
The kids helped me make mini heart pizzas for the party.
We made sugar cookie wands...
And late at night after they were dreaming away I started working on constructing her princess cake and decorating the "royal ballroom." I was up pretty late but had some help from Emily and Kevin with the decorations.
