Valentine's Day Celebrations

Valentine's Day has come and gone. The LOVE is still in the air! Mitchell and Tammara decided that they would give Valentine's and cookies! The teachers needed more than one cookie...right? I found the cutest containers and couldn't pass them up....so the teachers got a few more cookies than the kids! I should have just made all the cookies at once and been done....right?! That would have been WAY too easy. I decided to make things difficult for myself and only make one class at a time. Silly me! It just took longer and WAY more time than I really had. Better luck next time! The cookies were a big hit. The teachers loved them and so did the kids. Tammara and Karrie LOVE to help with anything in the kitchen so they helped decorate the Valentine's Day cookies! We had some left over and they were very yummy! It was such fun to watch the creative juices flow in these two little girls! They sure do LOVE sprinkles! I have to say these had a lot less sprinkles than the ones they helped their Nana make the week before! I did learn something! I guess this family tradition has stuck!

Gettig Started......

I decided that we needed to have a blog! Technology isn't my friend......somehow i have already created TWO blogs! Go figure! This week is off to a great start. Tammara had been going to p.m. preschool but that was just hard on Karrie. Karrie is still needing her afternoon naps! At the end of January we were told that there was an opening in the a.m. class....I jumped up and down for joy! Although Tammara will only go 3 days a week instead of 4! Mondays, Wednesdays & Thursdays! Tammara says 4 days is WAY better than 3! She enjoyed her first day of a.m. preschool! Made a few new friends and ALREADY has a BEST FRIEND! Mondays Karrie and I go to aerobics at the church! The wonderful Kathia MOTIVATES us to exercise our bodies and we are so BLESSED to have her! We still have to find an activity to keep us busy on Wednesday.....looks like that could be our library day! Thursday we have playgroup at the church.....that is enough said! We are SO blessed! Nap time has been re-established in the Tiller Home!! YAY!!!! Karrie will No longer be able to tell me how MEAN I am .....Because I don't EVEN let her have a NAP anymore! Who knew this little 3 year old (soon to be 4) would MISS her nap time this much?! I thought that she would enjoy all of this time away from home.....with JUST her mama! Sadly mistaken.........but glad that we have found something that works for us!
