Valentines Day and lots of visitors

My valentines girl with her Hersheys chocolate heart. That is her favorite candy.

My other valentine with her Kit Kat heart. That is her favorite candy.

Maya showing off her new princess placemat. They are so easy to please at this age. Hope it stays that way!

Scooting in the snow.,

Double bows and some cowboy boots and a pancake.

BFF's Sandy and Maya. They are quite funny though----too similar. They love each other and then fight like cats and dogs. I have actually had a phone call from Mrs. Ashley their teacher about them. They have to be separated often and Maya, who likes to be alone a lot, sometimes gets irritated with Sandy being clingy and is mean to her. Such three year old drama. They aren't going to be in the same fours preschool class in the fall because they need to be separated so they will branch out more. Sad but probably needs to happen. Same school still though so they will see each other.

Delaney's new disciplinary rainbow ticket system I made. She gets 3 tickets for every week day and five tickets for the weekend. With every infraction (rudeness, not listening, etc...) she loses a ticket and goes to her room for fifteen minutes. If she loses all 3 or 5, she is in her room for the rest of the day. If she makes it all day without losing any tickets she gets to color something on her color chart to eventually earn prizes. As I am writing this a month later this has truly been the only successful disciplinary venture we have made with Delaney. She has so far earned one prize, a new game for her Leappad, and has never spent the rest of the day in her room even though she has been close. She usually loses only one ticket each day and that is getting less and less. She shapes up after that first ticket. 

Miranda is here!!! Miranda spent a lot of time with us this week and the girls LOVED having her here. Miranda also came to work with me several days because she thinks she wants to be an OT. She loved that I just playing with kids and basically did "nothing". Yep---I have a good job. The girls were fascinated with Miranda's braces and basically want to be teenagers now to be just like her. :)


Delaney and Jackson show off some dance moves.
