Valentine Cards

I have never cared for Valentines day. But ever since I have had kids I have had so much fun doing cute pictures and cards for them. I also had the kids pose to make Aaron a card. Here is the cards I made for this Valentines.




Hayden passed these out in his Kindergarten class. I asked him what theme he wanted and he wanted to do Star War Lego's. It was kind of hard to think of something. So one day him and I looked up online some ideas. We saw a card that said "Yoda one for me" when I said it out loud Hayden said he liked it but I kept trying to think of something better. After a few days Hayden would still say "Yoda one for me" around the house and even made it into a song. So we went with that. He had the idea to take a picture with his little Yoda guy.

Emmie passed these out to her preschool class. I thought the saying "Owl always be your friend" was cute and Emmie liked her card once I showed it to her. Right now she isn't really into any characters so I just went with something girly for her. She loves girly stuff!

Paxton was the hard one! I think I tried about 5 different times for a few weeks to take a picture of him for his card. Every time I would put him down and pose him he would cry or walk away. Nothing made him happy and nothing made him smile. One day while the kids played outside I thought I would try again and keep him busy by holding something. It worked for a few minutes but I still never got a smile. But he is still a super cutie! I just went with a simple ABC's theme with "I love U" highlighted. Simple and sweet. With him holding that heart I almost wrote on their "Will work for Love" But it didn't sound appropriate. Ha ha!


With all the different times I tried to take pictures here are some out takes
Hayden tried 20 times to make a heart with his hands while he held Yoda, he just couldn't do it.
Emmie....Look at the camera please!
Paxton crying! I even gave him crackers and he would cry with those too.

He ignores me....
gets mad at me....
Breaks my Heart!!!!!
Then he gives me dirty looks......
All Frustrating at the time but cute and funny now.
