Valentine's Day! Such a beautiful celebration of loved ones. I really am not naturally creative so I took Elena's idea of doing fondue with the family but everyone was so full that we postponed that until tonight. We had a special dinner of chicken cordon bleu, loaded mashed potatoes, stuffing, green beans, cranberry sauce, and rolls. The kids all got chocolate "XOXO" candy (ava went shopping with me and told me she thought the boys would like these better than heart-shaped chocolates-turns out she was right). Dennis came home with pink roses for me and one for his little princess, chocolates, and chocolate-dipped strawberries and a balloon. Jake and Brad both wanted a pink rose for themselves so they took one from my bouquet. Jake actually put his back in the vase because he wanted it to live as long as possible. Brad, on the other hand, went right upstairs and tied his rose up-side-down so it can dry out. We were going to play games but because everyone has been rather sick lately, we decided to just watch movies instead. It was a wonderful day! Oh, I forgot, I bought Dennis his own box of chocolates and a card along with the special dinner:)

You do not look seven months prego!! Where is the belly??? Looks like everyone loved celebrating love. Your boys crack me up wanting a flower. They are going to be sensitive men like their grandpa!!
everyone says the same thing-it does feel like this baby is smaller than the rest. hopefully he will grow these last 8 wks!! i hope brad and jake will be sensitive, romantic men (i don't think ethan has a romantic bone in his body;)
