happy valentines day –
we aren’t out at some fancy restaurant tonight.
we’re home in sweats : )
we’re sprawled out on the couch watching a movie.
rex is sick in bed, with a raging fever.
we had take ‘n bake pizza for dinner.
little chad is in a cozy nightgown.
molly is hot & cold & sick too.
we read a library book most of the afternoon …. i’d keep saying this is the last chapter & then we’d read another one : )
i’ve eaten more of the heart shaped sugar cookies mom made then all the kids combined, i think.
rex still managed to bring roses home for me & tulips for the girls.
and after that he went straight to a hot shower & then to bed.
he actually said at dinner he was sorry i was the one well …. i got what he meant. it sounded easier to be sick then to take care of everyone & everything : )
he offered to buy me diamond earrings or a new stroller for chad. i actually chose the stroller. true story & i’m kinda super excited : )

Take the earrings!!!! lol xoxo
i love it. it love the word picture of you reading to your kids all afternoon. made me want to hop in my pj’s and do the same, but i have a 3 yr. old, so i don’t see that going well
Happy V-day, enjoy that stroller (totally sounds like a decision I would make, I’m entirely too practical sometimes)
Sounds like one of those memorable Valentine’s days when you say remember when….
Hope everyone gets well over there soon!
