My little Valentine

For those of you who don't know me very well here is a little secret about me.....I LOVE Valentine's Day. In the past it was a yearly tradition for us to go to Hot Springs every year for this day but since Avery arrived we have yet to continue this tradition. So this year we had a pretty low key day. We woke up and exchanged presents and here is Avery digging into hers.

Chad and Avery got me a Pandora Bracelet for Christmas so I was so excited to open up a Pandora box with a pink heart charm. I absolutely love it.


The day didn't go as planned......at 11:00a.m. I headed to Danville to see my Granny who had been put in the hospital for the second time in a week. Long story short they finally sent her to Little Rock and she is doing much better and will hopefully get to come home very soon. After I got home we ordered in La Huerta's and stayed at the house for the night. I apologized to Chad for having such a crappy Valentine's day and having to keep Avery all day by himself and his response was "I would not have wanted to spend it any other way than with my daughter." Just when you think you couldn't love him any more and then he says things like that. We couldn't forget about Avery's daycare teachers so I made cookies for them the Thursday before Valentine's day.

I know the cookies are pretty pitiful but I never claimed to be a wonderful baker. My artistic skills are lacking. But I hope they enjoyed them. They deserve a gift every week for putting up with Avery for 5 days. I know I am worn out after 2 days on the weekends with her. Well that about sums it up for us. Until next time.....
