(yesterday we spent the afternoon getting ready for class parties. i thought we would do it the easy way and just buy valentines...kai and abe both that was lame and kai ended drawing a picture for every kid in his class to go with the store bought valentine. this is the valentine box abe made for his class party. we have limited resources in the hotel, so i was impressed with his creativity!)
happy valentine's day!
here's a play by play of our day:
wake up and decorate the table for valentine's breakfast/scriptures--kids like their valentines.
dave gets home from work just in time to meet the boys in the parking lot and take them to school.
dave returns and max surprises him with a heart cookie (in a bag) taped to the hotel door:) we do a quick exchange of valentines for each other.
i leave for a three hour glucose test. my earlier test came back high, so i head out to have my blood drawn every hour...i tell dave i will pretend it is a really hot/icy cold vampire sucking my blood. the test results turn out normal--yeah!
dave cleans and vacuums out my car and delivers a valentine to sadie at school
dave and max pick me up from the hospital and take me out to lunch then drop me off to have a massage.
they pick up all the kids from school.
i take sadie to violin.
dave, abe, and kai get haircuts, which ends up only dave and abe because kai decides against getting his cut.
we make a quick trip to the house to look at carpet that was installed today. max rolls on it.
sadie tends and dave takes me to dinner. we get steak and salmon. it is great sitting next to each other for a few minutes.
dave takes sadie and four other girls to heart-attack their friend's room
i volunteer dave to take the boys swimming after homework is done. they last twenty minutes due to it being valentine's day and the pool is dimmed with purple lights and couples are kissing in the pool. the boys end up swimming in our tub and dave ends up laughing that i would think a late night swim with the boys is a good idea on valentine's day.
tuck the boys in bed
max needs ice because his mouth is too hot to sleep
re-tuck
max can't sleep and pretends to sleep walk, so serious
dave tells max a short story and they both fall asleep...but dave has to wake up so we can
plan sadie's school schedule for high school. we have a 7:30 am meeting with the counselor in the morning. crazy!
what a day! i am super glad i have such an awesome hubby and kids to love for infinity.
