Valentines Day

pammyxjean

My birthday is on sunday, so I think I might just get the kids stuff, and not my husband, he never ends up giving me anything bc my bday is so close. He is buying me a swanky watch this year for my bday, Im pretty freaking stoked!

I would like to surprise DH and go out but I don't think I can find a sitter so will probably just order takeout. DH has been so great lately putting up with me and my hormones through not feeling well and trouble finding a new house so I'd like to do something for him. I think I will create a bag of his favorite little things since I don't know anything else he would really want.

We are going to our favorite steak house for dinner and dessert. Will exchange cards and some candy most likely. Although I will miss my date night wine!

I ordered those Shari's berries that I keep seeing on TV, more for me than him... I'm off that day so I plan on cleaning and making a really nice dinner for DH.

We've never really celebrated Valentines Day, and for some reason this year, when it's not an option, I really, really want to! I'm hopefully getting LO's sex confirmed on 2/12, and if DH were here I think it would be fun to get the confirmation in an envelope and open it at a nice dinner together for V day. :-)

@tourqeyes - have fun! We'll be there the weekend after - can't wait!

We're going to the beach with my grandparents - party animals! I think the four of us are going to dinner on Saturday and my husband and I may exchange smaller gifts. We haven't really talked about it yet.

DH is deployed. I'll probably eventually get around to making a Valentine's care package for him. Most likely I'll get it in the mail too late for him to actually get it by Valentine's Day, but I'll just blame it on slow international shipping rather than my inability to get it together.

I will, however, be spending a lovely Valentine's day with my girlfriends who are also husbandless due to deployment this year! And I don't have to shave for that.

I like the idea of a chocolate bouquet!! My hubby loves chocolate so I think he would be very happy to get one!!

Those look so delicious! I can't wait to hear how they are.

We usually don't celebrate, but since our a/s is on that day, we'll go out to dinner and open the envelope to find out what baby #2 has between its legs. 

This, exactly.

Just created a cute customized card on Treat (part of Shutterfly). You can even include photos & you can choose paper cards mailed to you (or straight to the recipient) or digital cards. If you order by the 10th (Monday), you can get a paper card delivered in time for Valentine's Day. Plus, use coupon code "treatsome1" and it's totally free! I chose the coffee & donut one and will have it waiting for him on the kitchen table with a DD heart cookie dough donut & his coffee mug (I leave for work when he's still in bed).

I'll probably make steak and lobster mac n cheese for DH. I've had an aversion to steak during this pregnancy though so I hope my appetite for it comes back! I hope he gets me some chocolates. We don't celebrate valentines day really but I loveeeee me a box of chocolates!
