Happy Belated Valentines Day

I have spent all this week catching up from being sick for a whole week the week before...so this is a bit of a belated post.  We had a nice Valentine's Day.  Here the translation for Valentines Day is "lovers day" which doesn't really include kids or family love...but we made a big deal of that kind.  The boys made simple cards for our family and friends.  We started the day with these...Austin insisted we must eat something with hearts for breakfast.

 Pink chocolate chip pancakes, in case you couldn't tell.


 The boys sporting new pajamas in a Valentine's package from Nana and Bop...and enjoyed lots of candy.
 Lucy in her little Valentine's outfit in the package too.  Lucy rolled over last week!  From front to back- she hasn't done it since then but definitely likes to scoot around on the floor and can change positions.  Still a sweet smiler.
We had nice family dinner at home, gave our cards and I made chocolate raspberry truffles for dessert (we have some frozen berries I recently ordered from a local farm...yum).  Chris and I did not go out on a date, though tried to have a date at home watching a movie. Unfortunately for poor Chris I fell asleep about half way through..I mean completely out, not just dozing.  Guess I was more tired than I realized.  Oh well, he was gracious with me.  We also did live vicariously through two of our favorite single friends here who recently started dating. He stayed with us and she stayed with the Hunemullers so they could go out on a fun date and be close to work the next morning.  So we enjoyed hearing about their first valentine's day together.  Anyway, happy belated lovers' day to all those reading :).
