Valentine's Day Festivities and Breckyn walks!

So Valentine's Day has rolled around once again and Ashlyn had to make some things for school. During our many snow days, Ashlyn had the chance to make her Valentine's Day box, as well as valentines for her classmates. She was very proud of her box when she was finished and to her surprise, many kids in her class commented on how pretty it was! According to Ashlyn, she had the best box of the group and she did most of it by herself. She had heart stickers to put on there and thought of the idea to make a pattern with them. During her Valentine's Day party she got lots of cards and treats, which made her very happy! She was looking forward to that day for a LONG time.

It's official. Breckyn is walking like a pro now at 14 months old. Who needs crawling? She is walking everywhere by herself and thinks she is big stuff. She started walking about two weeks ago during our snow days. Luckily we were both around to witness it. Of course she always has to have something in her hands when she's walking around and it's usually a stuffed animal. Here's some pictures from the last couple of weeks.

Breckyn didn't miss out on the Valentine's Day festivities. She got to enjoy a sucker. It was such a mess!

Ashlyn was so thrilled and proud of her when she first started walking. She always says, "Look! Breckyn's walking!". And we are like, "Yes Ashlyn we know. She's been walking for two weeks now." Such a proud big sister.
