We have all had such a nice Valentine's day! Lori and I went to a chocolate party at work (I think my body was in shock for a few hours!) and Ellie had a big party at school. Last night we made delicious chocolate cupcakes for her school party (dairy and egg free, of course!). We also made treat bags with chocolate covered pretzels for Ellie's friends (again dairy free - it's amazing how much is available these days!). This morning when she woke up, she still remembered that we had made them and couldn't wait to go to school to share them. It was so fun to see her anticipating the excitement the she would have later in the day!
This evening we went to Ellie's favorite restaurant for dinner. It's a diner about a half a mile from our house where the waitresses spoil Ellie and she spends the entire time showing off how cute she is. We finished off Ellie's night by snuggling on the couch and watching the Valentine's Day episode of The Backyardigans. Now she's drifting off to sleep in a sugar induced coma :-)
We hope your Valentine's Day was just as special and spent with the ones you love!
Cupcakes and treat bags for school
This morning Ellie got to open some gifts from Mommy and Mama before breakfast.
And they were put to good use right away!
Thanks to the generosity of Mimi and Boppa and our good friend Kerry, Ellie had plenty of Valentine's finery to wear this week!

And we saved Elmo for today!

I just want to give my favorite little Valentine a squeeze!! She is so cute. It is wonderful how the little ones enjoy these special days.
Sounds like you all had a fun full day....the cupcakes look sooo good, and no eggs or milk!!! (wish I had one right now)..talk to you soon....love ya all....mom
you both are "super Parents"!!! Perfect outfits all week, treats and yummy cupcakes as well! No wonder Ellie was so excited!
Yes, you wouldn't believe how good the non-dairy, non-egg treats are! You would never know. In any case, we will be re-challenging the dairy soon. Her blood tests came back and it looks like she may no longer be allergic to dairy. Keep your fingers crossed.... it would be nice to have some pizza with her! (right Barbara? another Clark for PIZZA!)

Ellie looks like a Little Miss Valentine USA. What a great life this happy little girl leads!
What is it with pizza??? LOL
I am a fan of cheese though.. :)
Hope she is no longer allergic!
She looked adorable in all her little outfits! Glad you all had such a nice Vday! I got to spend mine in school =)
