Valentines




Hearts and cupid. Mushy, sappy, romance....all these things come to mind when you think of Valentines day. Actually, for the hubs and I we really hate the gross cards with the "I knew I loved you, before I met you," kind of messages. Gag me. We spent one of our date nights recently in the Hallmark store in our mall reading all of the worst cards in the form of poetry and getting so tickled we could hardly stand it. Then he pulled me to his side to dance with him to the musical cards....I'm telling you my husband is hilarious...once he's completely comfortable around you.

Two days prior to Valentines day we had a tiff...okay, let's just call it what it was...a fight. Leading me to believe that our Valentines date night was going to be anything but fun...however, we were able to make up...just as we always do with humor and save the holiday. St. Valentine would be proud. Perhaps he asked Cupid to shoot an arrow in both of our rumps to allow us to see each other's softer, more appealing sides.

We went out to dinner and a movie the night before Valentines day in order to avoid the crowds allowing my brother and sister-in-law the joy of watching our sweet child...they had a blissful time...and we appreciated their willingness to spoil her! (See Pics)

My husband and I had a wonderful evening just talking about ourselves and what was going on in our lives and what things were new with one another...trying our best to not talk about our daughter. We actually did a pretty good job of discussing everything under the sun. It was so good to be out and in each others company, laughing and enjoying conversation. It was a wonderful Valentines...and he DID NOT get me chocolate, which is what I asked him not to do. Surprisingly, I did not think he would have listened...but he did, and I was proud of him.

Saturday morning we got Bug up and we were excited to let her have her Valentines day gift that her Daddy got her...something we intend for him to get to pick out every year! We attached a video of her delight with her gift!

Much love,
