This week we have been busy not only getting ready for valentine celebrations but dealing with all things pink including... pink eye.
I had planned out a week's worth of pink, red, & heart themed outfits for both girls and we started working on family, teacher, & friend valentines. I thought we were in good shape! It was supposed to be a busy week in the evenings with a science night at school, dance class, and valentine party wind-down on Friday afternoon, so I was feeling great about getting a head start.

Tuesday morning, Nora woke up and said something about her eye not opening so I looked at it, and sure enough it was pretty pink. Naturally, I consulted with my veteran mother teacher friends and the consensus was that it looked like pink eye. As a teacher, at 6:30 in the morning you have to make a decision pretty quick about whether or not you're going to be able to go in to work so that you can plan for a substitute accordingly. I decided we needed to go to the doctor and it did turn out to be pink eye. We got everything taken care of and she was able to go back to school after a couple days home.
Cute Monday outfits...
...and pink eye on Tuesday.
I did a little concerned that Janie may be developing pink eye, too, but so far so good. It does not appear to be a problem for her at this point in time. Yay! We were able to carry on with the week's festivities and the girls were able to deliver and bring home valentines from their classes.

P.S. Nora likes to change into her pajamas the second we get home.
Besides having to take eye drops {which Nora absolutely HATES} our Valentine weekend has been nice. The weather is fair and Janie is getting to wear her pink heart dress as much as her little heart desires. Except for when I made her wear the matching jumpsuits...

Side note: This is a little girls shirt. As in, I did not buy it in the toddler section. Eek!

Happy girl!
Sending love to our family & friends!
Janie's favorite "pink heart dress" as she calls it!
What joy this brings my heart!
