    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)
