Valentine's Day - What are you getting your SO?

HelgaFunk

Anyone have any brilliant ideas for Valentine's Day presents? I'm at a complete loss this year.

HelgaFunk

Ouch. So sorry to hear that.

Nothing from me. He'll have the pleasure of my company . I did get him a daddy fitness book called baby barbells. It looks cute as to how to use the baby for working out. I'm giving it to him from LO. He's really into working out so I think he'll like it.

Ass-less chaps are always a good decision.


No but seriously, power tools.

He wants some video game but I don't know if we'll actually exchange gifts. We celebrate valentines day and our anniversary at the same time.

Are there any other kind of chaps? If they weren't assless, wouldn't they just be pants?

We always do super cheesy puns all day. Like I will put a note on the oj "orange you glad I love you". We basically challenge each other to be the most cheesy

It's kind of hard for me to get behind such a cheesy holiday just so Hallmark can make a lot of money but I feel like I need to do something since life has become so hectic since the baby. I just ordered him a Foo Fighters shirt off of Amazon so that may have to suffice alone with some Reese's cups or peanut M&Ms. I'm so romantic ::eyeroll::

That's a good idea. I might see if I can sneak a really good picture of her and her big brother and give it to him for his office at work.

Last weekend I snuck out with LO and got pictures taken of the two us. So he is getting some of those.

Nothing - we just stay home & have dinner and wine once the kids are in bed :-) Well, maybe I'll give it up that night ;-) It's been awhile, lol.

This exactly.

Nothing. 

We don't have money to spend and I think Valentine's Day is more for people who are dating. I probably won't even remember on the day since I'm usually trapped in the house and every day just melds together.

I bought him a nice vintage leather/canvas duffle bag for when E gets old enough that we can take romantic weekend getaways. I'm also really, really good at writing love letters. *toots horn*

We don't do gifts but one gift i have him for Christmas that was a huge hit was celtics tickets. Also if he has a hobby or an interest private lessons work. I once did 2 hours in a professional recording studio so he could record and mix three songs (he plays guitar) and he loved that. I even flashed him my boobs thought the window behind the sound engineer so he felt like a rock star we are big on experience gifts in our house!

Neither of us love the holiday, so we generally hal ass it. he has a little heart box I gave him years ago and I always fill it up with  Reeses Peanut Butter hearts. He always gets me a gift card for some flower bulbs from a local nursery and we literally have given each other the same cards every year for the last 8 years-we just add the year to the back of the card.

I'll just make him a cheesy card and he might get extra love that night

I think I am going to start the 30 day challenge as well. Well at least present it to him on Valentines Day. Other than that I will probably just arrange my parents to babysit so we can watch a movie and maybe go to dinner. We do not do date night very often so that will be more than enough as a gift to ourselves.

kari.sandall

We go to dinner at the same place each year. A tradition started while we were dating. We don't do gifts. But he always gets some that night. Woot woot exciting Valentine's Day.

Nada.  And from him I want sleep. Sweet sweet sleep.

You guys are so cute and fun. I need to make an effort to bring the fun back into my marriage. Challenge accepted! Now where to start... Lol.

On our very first valentines day, he gave me a business card holder. We haven't exchanged gifts since. #-o

Wow. Now THAT'S romantic.

We're video game nerds and we love desk toys for work, so I got DH this set for Valentine's Day. lol

That's actually pretty fantastic.
