Valentine's Day is not a huge deal in our household. Each child gets a little treat and Grant and I exchange our favorite candy. Other than class parties, that's the extent of our celebration!
The kids woke up to their typical Valentine's Day goods: a sweet and a treat! Dylan and Lexie had to go to school, but they started off their day with some chocolates with their breakfast!
I attended Lexie's class party the day before, but Dylan's class party was on Valentine's Day. Lexie had a great time, and Dylan was really looking forward to his party!
After they left for school, I had plenty of time to spend with my youngest loves.
It was a typical morning for us. Liam had OT and worked until he cried. After a short nap, he cheered up! He was excited about his first Valentine's Day!!!
We went shopping and had dinner with my parents. As usual, my parents spoiled the kids with Valentine's Day goody bags.
Lily played with their cats and Liam got some snuggles.
Lexie was super excited to finally receive the only toy she asked for at Christmas. Instead of getting her gift on Christmas morning, she had to accept a special gift card to get the toy when it arrived in stores. I picked it up for her while shopping and surprised her with it. She was thrilled!
We headed home, got the kids to bed, and I spent the rest of the night with my first love.
Even though Valentine's Day is not a big deal, I couldn't help but feel extremely blessed. My life is filled with love!
Lovely! My kids came home from their school party with tons of Valentines goodies. It was a good day. <3

ReplyDeleteHappy Valentine's Day!
Looks like a perfect Valentines. Wonderful pictures. We don't do much either - I usually make something nice for dinner/dessert. We were snowed in this year anyway. Paul got me an Ipod Nano which was a much bigger gift than typical, but I'm delighted, as I'll use it running.
ReplyDeleteI love Lily's outfit! That girl has style! And the picture of Liam watching Lily is absolutely precious!
ReplyDeleteI need to work on my Valentine's Day recap still, too! I love the class parties, too... Autumn would love Lexie's kitty!! My parents always spoil the kids every holiday, too! :) I guess that is what Grandparents are for!
ReplyDeleteLooks like such a wonderful day! Love the picture of Liam sleeping, so sweet! Glad she finally got her present. So lucky your parents are close
