Fun things about the weekend...Valentine's Edition

Happy monday! Hope everyone had a lovely, love-filled weekend. Even though ours got started early w. a late morning call from daycare on Friday that resulted in me & John being home by lunch time - we still had a good weekend.

When I got to daycare I almost stepped on John who was laid out on a bean bag, covered w.his blanket while the other kids ate their lunch - most pitiful I've ever seen him :(. I scooped my lil' heap of puny-ness off the floor (after he finally mustered the strength to wearily open his eyes & see me standing over him) and we headed home to nap before our 3:15 appt. "Raging ear infection, right ear" was the diagnosis, but praise GOD the tubes were still in tact! The amoxicillin seems to be doing the trick, so the rest of the weekend shaped up something like this:


White wine & Watching snow fall

Yummy lunches (Smithfields for us - Wendy's for the lil' one) ~ post Saturday haircuts (not everyone WORE their ketchup or SHOWED their food!)

Unwrapping goodies from Mimi & Nana

Listening to Nana read me "All the Ways I Love You"

Getting the best card EVER (thanks Mimi & Grumpaw) - "RARRRRRRR" - lovin' some dinosaurs these days! (Note: I'm not gagging, I'm making dinosaur noises)

Glorious sunshine :)

As Pastor Gary said sunday morning, "Praise God for the beautiful snow, and praise Him for the glorious sunshine to take it away!" Amen to that...


Fun things, not pictured:

A lazy sunday afternoon holding down the furniture & the carpet. Cat-napping on the couch by the fire. A pleasant Valentine's date w.my 2 boys @ El Dorado. Lots of hugs, snuggles & smooches - but isn't that every weekend!?!

We are reveling in these weekends at home together. January was full of house projects and now that we've completely run out of steam, we're truly just enjoying being together. We can look on the calendar and know that the months ahead just get busier & busier so we're soaking up this down time as much as possible.

Hope everyone has a blessed week. Stay warm & remember this cold weather can't last FOREVER!
