Ok, maybe the whole cupcake is the best part!
It's confirmed...the frosting is the best part!
Figuring out that the frosting may be more fun to eat

I feel like I haven't done a post in so long, but in reality it has been less than a week!  So much has happened in the past week I think because we had a long weekend and Steve and I were both home all weekend!  I love being home and working on our addition and playing with Xavier!  

So let's see...lets begin with the two days before Valentines Day.  Xavier and I made Valentines cupcakes!  He helped crack the eggs(watch for shells) and he mixed the batter!  He also had fun licking the beater when we were done!  Then Xavier helped put the  batter in the cups and finally he helped frost and decorate!  He started frosting his cupcake and then he quickly realized it was way more fun to eat the frosting off the knife!  

On Valentines Day Steve's mom was here helping Steve finish up the painting of the addition that they had started the day before!  Rhona, Megan & Steve were such a big help with the painting since pregnant women aren't suppose to paint!  Who knows how true that myth is!  It's kind of like no eating blue cheese!  Anyways the painting got all finished by Sunday and now we are just waiting on the floors then we can finish up the trim and then it will be finished!!!

DJ and Lindsey also came over for a Valentines day dinner!  We made spaghetti and played games.  Lindsey also gave us the best Valentines Day present ever!  She put Xavier to bed and he actually slept in his own bed all night!  He didn't even wake up until 745 the next morning!  She is amazing...I'm going to pay her to come over every night and put Xavier to bed!!  I just can't stress how much Xavier loves Lindsey and DJ.  He just doesn't stop talking about them for days after they leave!  Oh and everything he sees that is pretty is not just pretty, it's Linley(Lindsey) pretty!

So besides me being pretty sick this weekend it was a great weekend!  I feel like we got a lot done around the house and got to spend quality time with family!  Back to work!
