Re: Valentines Day

  • My hubby and I are going to dinner at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse in San Diego for dinner. Grandma will be watching Ethan. We usually just get cards for each other and not any gifts. Grandma bought Ethan a cute Valentine's Day onsie. 
  • I think on the day of DH and I will watch a cute movie after Preston goes to bed but I'd love to make a little banana cupcake for him and maybe a cream cheese frosting with beets to make it pink.  That weekend DH and I are going to a small local theater for a date while Grammie watches Preston.  No plans for pictures though.

    We usually come up with something to make for dinner spur of the moment then hang at the house. I work in a resteraunt so nothing is more annoying to me than going out when it's packed. My hubby and I will probably put on a movie after we get the kids to bed. I will get the girls something small and probably won't get Cam anything til next year. Oh and my hubby and I don't really get eachother anything.
  • I'll help my kids cover the inside of my husband's car with paper hearts and some kind of treat for him to find in the morning when he goes to work. Dh doesn't like Valentine's Day, and doesn't really do gifts, so we haven't done anything big for it in probably 8 years. No dinner or night out for us. 

    DS will take Valentine's to kindergarten, so I'll help him make those next week. I'll probably plan a little valentine activity for my daughter's preschool that I'm teaching on the 15th. No plans really for baby, maybe I'll dress her up and take a cute picture (if I remember). Poor third kid :)

  • I ordered a Cupid costume on amazon and am hoping to take some cute pictures--she doesn't cooperate much doing our "photo shoots" lol
  • I'll probably try to print out a cute pic of Cora for my husband, but this is a busy time of year at work for him (cuts down trees, needs cold weather), so we probably won't really do anything unless my mom offers to babysit some night. I might make Cora a heart-shaped frozen purée to play with. I actually grew up celebrating Super Bowl Sunday, so that's the big one for us. The NFL commissioner comes and leaves a sports-related gift! We'll go to my dad's house to celebrate; I'm looking for a stuffed football to give Cora.
  • I'm wanting to get this picture of Savannah, but don't know what to use because she has sensitive skin.

  • As for plans- we are ordering in sushi because we have a gift card and are really trying to save money.

    I need a cute, cheap gift to give to DH. Maybe I'll just make him brownies and give him a BJ since it's free and he'll be thrilled hahahha

    I got Savannah, and my niece and nephew each a cute beanie boo embroidered with their name and the date on them (fundraiser a student is doing) and will put them in a bag with a little bit of candy

  • Our valentines gifts since we got married have always been food related. It's become some unwritten rule that DH handles dinner and I do dessert. That's actually how most of our meals go, he just loves to cook so I mostly stay out of his way.

    For Miles, I got him a cute shirt from Target and may give him a sampling of cake I make for DH. I want to try to remember to take some pictures. Maybe I can convince my husband to break out the tripod and actually get a cute family photo! Everyone will wear red or white, awwww. (Speaking of family photos, definitely on my To-Do list for his one year photo shoot. Family photos, individual photos of Miles, and then some cake smash. And then a nap for everyone)

  • I'll be in VA with Damien so my husband and I won't be celebrating...that said, we usually don't do much anyway. I'm making a Love Book for him that will be delivered to our place while I'm gone.

    No plans for Damien either. I'm so wrapped up in the travel part of our trip that I haven't thought about it.
  • I think I'm going to plan fondue and a movie at home.  Nothing special as we are short on cash.

  • Actually I aparently will be getting a cavity filled. The lady asked me if I was ok with a Valentine's Day appointment lol.
  • We just use it as an excuse to open one of our oldest/most expensive bottles off of our wine rack. And I usually buy filet or something else decadent to cook.
  • I think I'm going to plan fondue and a movie at home.  Nothing special as we are short on cash.
    Fondue is a good idea. My husband has had one for a bagillion years that he has never used and it sits around taking up space.

    We do it about two or three times a year.  It's a nice way to relax at home and enjoy each other.

  • My older son and I made Valentine cards for everyone yesterday, but we don't really do gifts. My mom always gets us all cards and chocolate, and she got the babies the stuffed bears.
