Sweet heart pops

Annalise was having quite the whiny morning. I think it is because she isn't sleeping well at night (yes, again) and having bad dreams. Dreams which she decides to get up and tell me about at 3 am so I haven't been sleeping well either. Tuesdays are our down days. Sometimes we get the groceries, but today we had a couple of errands. It was miserable getting her out of the house. But then suddenly, she turned the corner and was all skipping and cheerful and delightful. I think they call that a mood swing. Anyway, a while back she spotted this craft in the good old Family Fun magazine. Since she was being good, we stopped at JoAnns to get the supplies. We had some left over mini candy canes from Christmas.
We get started and she layed everything out.

Mom was in charge of melthing the candy and putting it in the hearts. Annalise did the sprinkles. I have to say, this took a whopping 5 minutes to make and bought me all kinds of peace this afternoon.

A closer look at ours. Didn't quite look like the picture, but that was ok with us.



Meanwhile, Annalise models her new boots that we found on super clearance at LandsEnd. We love you Lands End. I think she will be wearing these the rest of the winter and all of next.
After dinner, they ate their treats.
I guess they liked them
