Happy Valentine's Day

 
 This year our Valentine's Day was pretty low key. We normally go out to an Argentinean restaurant and go all out with gifts. But this year we kept it simple. Sometimes it's nice to lower expectations and not feel so pressured in to planning a big evening when really, who's dictating it, but some crazy holiday that's overly marketed. Sadie and I headed to the gym, per usual. But today she got a sucker from the babysitter, which was pretty exciting. Then, we headed to friend Evelyn's house to decorate some sugar cookies and play for a while. Sadie's lunch consisted of sugar cookies, frosting, M&Ms and lots and lots of conversation hearts. Before we headed back for naptime, we walked Daddy to his dentist appointment because it was 55 degrees outside and gorgeous. Then, we stayed in and made heart shaped pizzas, I got some beautiful roses and that was that. After Sadie went down for the night, Brett and I told each other a handful of the many reasons why we love the other. We used to do that every night, and now we do it, oh every once in a while. It was nice. I love my two Valentines!
