Our Valentines Day

Both Rob and I are not very big into Valentines. I mean we have been together for so long it is basically just another day. And honestly I would rather be surprised on a random day with flowers or something instead of on a day that he feels pressured to buy me something.
But I do have fun doing things with the kids.Both the boys had parties at school and Alex could not wait to give Olivia ( his girlfriend) the bear that he bought her. And Zach was excited to give all his friends at school their valentines. Our daycare lady also did a party to Addie made a bunch of crafts all morning and both Zach and Addie left with a goodie bag a a big balloon.
When Alex got home from school I surprised the kids with a bunch of balloons that we blew up and had a big balloon party. Lots of volleyball with them and soccer and even a little dance party.

After Addie went to bed ( she crashes early on Monday and Tuesday due to no nap) the boys and I decided to make some heart shaped pancakes and bacon for their dinner.



Both boys love to help me cook and bake and sometimes it is easier to have them mix stuff on the floor instead of the counter. It leads to less fights. And since both my boys love to just wear undies around the house that is what they wore while we made dinner. Overall it was a good day. The kids ate way to much candy, did not fight too much, and so far the little ones have gone to bed....if only I could get Alex to be crashed out by 7!
