7/52 - Valentine's Cards

 I am going through my Colombia pictures right now.  There are not really that many, but I have been so busy and tired this week.  Every night I am ready for bed at 7, and it is all I can do to get the kids in bed before I crash somewhere around 8.  I have been dying for a nap each day, but it never works out.  I never really felt jet lag in Colombia, but I have really been feeling it this week back.  

In the meantime, while I am going through those pictures, here is one picture of each of the children.  I saw this idea on the same blog that I do 10 on 10 through .  It is to take 1 portrait/picture of your child(ren) each week.  I am assuming that it is see them change over the year.  Anyway, I don't know that I could do 1/week; one week goes by sooo fast, and it's rare these days that I even get one blog post in a week.  Maybe once a month.  We'll see.

This week, the week of the celebration of LOVE, these portraits are fitting.  They are their Valentine's cards.  The 3 oldest got to decorate theirs how they wanted via PicMonkey.  I printed them at Walgreens.  That is the first time that I have printed there, and it shall be the LAST.  It was hard to read the print on them because it was such a bad print job.  They reeked of solution, too.  Oh well.  They worked and they probably got thrown away after the candy/toy was ripped off of them.

We wanted to tape on glow sticks to be the light sabers, but they were too expensive, so it was PixiStix instead.


I love my loves.

Thanks, Mom. I know, E and J look so much alike. People get them confused all the time.
