Valentines Day




For Valentines Day this year Porter and I decided instead of trying to find a babysitter we would just celebrate with the girls. The girls got new pajamas for Valentines so we got them in the bath so they could put on their new pajamas, then Porter made us a really good steak dinner. The girls only ate their broccoli and a little bit of their potatoes and then had to go play. After we finished eating we all sat down to watch Madagascar 2 and around 9 o'clock Rylie announced she was too tired to finish the movie and wanted to go to bed. The girls went to bed and Porter and I had the rest of the night to ourselves. He got me two really nice plants as my gift since I have been wanting real plants and just never get around to buying them. It was a good Valentines Day because both Porter and I agreed we would rather spend time with our kids and stay at home than go out and spend money.

What good parents you are! I was itching to get away from my children! We went to Cheesecake Factory. Yum. I wish that my kids would say they are too tired and want to go to bed. No fair! Talk to you soon!
