DH and I decided to stay in and order Thai food which was really good and I was glad the LO handled it well because I was worried about the spice and BF. It was the first time in a while that we did not go out to a restaurant for V-day but it was really nice and intimate to just celebrate at home with our new LO. We also joked about how old we are getting because we had dinner, put the baby down, and had sex and were in bed by 8:30pm. Ohhh the joys of parenting..
How did you spend your Valentines?
Re: How did everyone spend their V-day?
DH and I have a tradition of making a beef tenderloin. The price wasn't right this year, so we had rib roast instead, which I thought was almost just as good.
Is it sad that we didn't even attempt to DTD? We're just too exhausted from taking care of LO I guess.
I took my kids to the zoo yesterday.
Last night, LO #2 went to bed at 5. I expected a 7pm wake up as normal, but he slept right through it and I had to finally pull him out of the swing to put on a nighttime diaper and PJ's on him at 10:30.
LO #1 went to bed around 8. From 8-10:30, H and I watched some TV and drank a little wine.
We had quinoa pizza bites and asparagus for dinner.
Hehe!
Yeah, VDay was pretty much a nonevent in our house, too. A card would have been nice, though :-/.
MIL is babysitting the older two on the weekend so DH and I can go out for dinner. We'll be taking the baby.
We did all of this, except we ordered Italian, have a DD1 that had almost a WHOLE individual pizza and we were not in bed by 8:30. It was really nice to have an intimate dinner with our new family. DD2 sat in her little lamb beside us while we all ate:)
