Long Weekend
Feb 18th, 2009 by Kate
We enjoyed a long weekend celebrating Valentine’s Day and President’s Day. Sydney has finally recovered from her double ear infections, although it was a long week last week with Jim out of town. Luckily we had some down time over the weekend to relax a bit. We did some celebrating of Valentine’s day, first at a daycare party and then we hosted a little party for some friends from my Mom’s group. We also got in a ride on the merry-go-round which Sydney loved!
Since watermelon is Sydney’s favorite food, I made heart-shaped watermelon “pops” for the V-day party at daycare. The kids really enjoyed them - even Lauren ate TWO and she doesn’t usually like watermelon!
We had plans to head downtown to visit the aquarium on Saturday, but by the time Sydney got up from her morning nap, it was a bit late. So we headed to the mall where they have a merry-go-round and took Sydney for a ride. (Well, Daddy did. I took the pictures.) She was unsure of it at first, but quickly warmed up and spent the ride smiling ear to ear!
Sunday morning, Daddy made these pancakes for Sydney. The plan was to make pigs, but we think they look more like foxes or dogs! She didn’t seem to mind though.
Hope everyone had a nice weekend too!
