Little N was born in the early hours of Valentine's Day to my youngest sister. I am so excited I could just burst! Isn't he the cutest??? The boys were pretty psyched to finally see pics of "Baby Cousin" that we had been praying for for 9 months!
I also volunteered to help out on Big J's class for his Valentine's Party. It was so much fun watching all of the Kindergartners pass out their treats and play games ... and I know Big J was happy that I was there for him.
We spent the afternoon working from home ... sorry boss, I was to excited about a new nephew and my kids' Valentine's days that I just couldn't focus ... life happens ya know!
I went to Cold Stone and bought E and the boys their own desserts for the evening (it was rather fitting since the temps have gone up so much that it felt like Spring was just around the corner!). Then, Big J and I went to little j's Valentine's Day party at preschool.
They sang some songs (he was so cute, clapping along) and then ate treats (boy did they eat treats!).
I made a special Valentine's Dinner - heart shaped Monte Cristo paninis, french fries and steamed broccoli ... too bad the boys were pretty stuffed from eating crap all day! They each got a little gift from me: more candy and a Tome and Jerry DVD. E bought them little candy heart boxes full of ... more chocolate!
Oh yea - I also got a beautiful bouquet of flowers from E .... a lovely surprise!
So ... all in all, we didn't spend too much money on the holiday, but I think we all liked it. And in the end, my best Valentine was my new nephew ;)
