Baking Cupcakes for Valentines

I could not wait to do her Valentine session with the new kitchen she got from Santa :) When I found this apron I knew exactly what we were going to do for a themed session. We had so much fun too!! This was a session my daughter wanted to do again and normally she isn't thrilled when I pull out my camera.

She got to stir her batter in her little pots and pans

Oh ya... don't eat the cupcakes... she wasn't exactly sanitary when she made them :) Licking the spoon, her hands...

Grandma called while she was baking. :)

She put in her own batter that she mixed up

Putting the cupcakes in the oven next

She even put her oven knob to 350 :) Teaching my little girl to bake is so much fun!

When she wasn't looking I snuck a batch a premade ones back in her oven and told her it was time to pull them out of the oven.

She was shocked that her kitchen baked her cupcakes!!! She thinks it's a magic kitchen now

Now time for some icing

Oh P.S. I learned to sew... and my first attempt at a banner. HA HA! YA it isn't anything fancy but took me only 20 minutes!

She can't wait to eat them!

I told her she could have one.... oooops it hit the ground... and yes she picked it up and ate it... LOL!

So not a graceful eater... but enjoying every moment of it

Usually at the end of a session she is pouting.... but look at her... happy as can be :) And I had fun too!

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!!!

Don't you just love holidays? For me... it is just an excuse for new outfits and pictures of the kids... :D Imagine me saying, "But hunny it's Valentines Day... I HAVE to have a new outfit for the kids!!" And he falls for it everytime... (love you hunny) He never reads my blog anyways so I can talk about him all I want!

These were taken at Chief Joseph Elementary School. They have these bright green benches that I wanted to take pictures on. How are you spending your Valentines Day?

So here is the family...

Sorry girls... he is still too young!

Always remember to....


they were making hearts...


The two cutest boys in the world! (At least i think they are!)


































And last but not least.... this one is my favorite!

XOXOXOXOXOXOXO HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!! XOXOXOXOXOXOXO

I was actually attempting a shot at dancing for a iheartfaces contest coming up... but didn't have any lucky... so instead of wasting an adorable moment of her in her ballerina outfit... I gave her a heart sucker and will claim that these were her Valentines shots! :D
