Robot Love Day

Well, since ALL our kids love robots (or BOBOTZ if we're talking about Neely), I wanted to make this a robot themed V-day. So I stayed up late trying to make girl robots for our girls. I failed. I need to take a sewing class. :(

But I did tell Paige her Robot Love painting was for Valentine's Day, but early, since there was no way to hide it from her as I painted it.

Our Love Day started off well. I set my alarm to get up and make crepes before everyone else got up. But instead I woke up to Paige coming in to wake me up. She cuddled up in our bed, crazed with the joy of Valentine's Day, while I went to start breakfast.
Even though my stuffed girl robots didn't work out we went with the robot theme anyway.
They came out to the dining table, waiting for their food and checking out their little gifts.
Cason was of course expecting his robot, but he was excited to see his heart inside the door.
Paige made us all Valentines like a week ago, and had me get them from their hiding place so she could hand them out.
We each got an envelope addressed to us, and a picture like this one inside:
Then we gave Jess his little book we made him:We got the idea from Pinterest of course. It took a few days of coaxing Cason to give us enough reasons. He kept telling me the same one "I love daddy because I'm sad he has to go to work." I'd say "I know, I got that one buddy, do you have some more?" and he'd tell me pretty much the same thing, but worded differently. We eventually got some good ones out of him though. And Jess loved it.

Then we had breakfast.
Jess took the day off for us, so now we're off to enjoy our day of love.
