Valentine's

Our Valentine's this year was probably exactly what you'd expect from a family of 3.  Especially when one of them is 13 months old and likes a bath promptly at 7:00 followed by a little playtime and bed by 7:45.

I made a reservation at 5:45 at Picasso's.  I'm sure they were thinking..  "Lady, we'll be WIDE OPEN at 5:45" but they kindly took my name and treated me like any other reservation on Valentine's night.  We showed up to an empty restaurant and took our seat.  Patrick met us just a few minutes later and we ordered a yummy pizza for the three of us to share.  This just happened to be Jack's first experience with pizza and I think he was feelin' the love!

There really wasn't much excitement, but I was happy to share the evening with the best husband in the world and the most handsome and adorable little boy ever!

And while we had every intention of taking a  picture of us, it didn't happen inside the restaurant.  And, this was the only picture I was able to get outside.  Pretty pathetic, huh??

Yeah, it's all fuzzy and off-centered.    

When we got home, Patrick gave me a really sweet card and some scrum-diddly-umptious chocolates.  They lasted all of about 48 hours.  And, because the mail was delayed on Valentine's Day, Patrick didn't get his gift until the next night.

You might remember these pictures from our day at the park in December.
Patrick wanted some pictures for his office, so this is what he got.  

And, after putting it together, I showed it to Jack and this was his reaction.  How sweet is this??  It's like he was hugging it!  I love that little boy ;)

HAPPY BELATED VALENTINE'S DAY TO ALL OF YOU!

WE LOVE YOU!
