I hope you all had a great Valentine's Day. I had a spectacular one. Greg and I were able to sleep in a little later since he didn't have to wake up early for work. The kids decided to give us a break I guess. Arjay didn't wake up until about 7:45 am and although Adryana woke up a bit earlier she went to watch TV in the living room. It was cold so I did not want to get out of bed. Plus when you have young children you don't always get to sleep in so you have to take advantage of it when it comes along so rarely.
Greg got out of bed and changed Arjay's diaper while Adryana climbed in bed with me. We snuggled for a while until Greg returned shortly with gifts. Greg's so romantic. He always get Adryana a gift too. She was ecstatic of course. Her Dad got her a card, some candy roses and a little teddy bear with carnation hearts. She was so happy. I gave Arjay some candy, a little hot wheel car and some bubbles. He was excited mostly about the car and the candy of course.
This is a tradition we started a few years back. Greg feels that it is important for Adryana to know how she is supposed to be treated by a man. So he wants to make sure she won't settle for less when she's older and starts dating. This is my first year getting Arjay a gift. He's only 2 so I know he doesn't understand yet but I knew he would want a gift because Adryana was getting one.
Following the gift exchange, I made Greg a ham & cheese omelette; One of his faves. Much later in the day I went to the nail salon and got a pedicure, it was much needed and it felt great. I was so relaxed in the massge chair I almost fell asleep. After that I picked up our dinner from Chili's. When I got home we sat together and had our dinner. They forgot the fries for the kids so that was a bit dissapointing but the food was good. They were packed and very busy so I'm glad the food tasted good. My Valentine's was really good and very special too because Greg and I were celebrating our 10th Valentine's Day together. God has blessed us with each other and we are both very grateful.
Right now I'm taking a break from packing and getting ready for our trip to Ft. Lauderdale. We'll be gone all weekend. We have a cousin's baby shower tomorrow. Then on Sunday Greg will be running his second marathon. Please pray for him! He feels bad about his timing last time since he had too much water and his legs started cramping. He's hoping to get it right this time and get the time he's really after (which is to finish under or appoximately 4 hrs). I'll be hoping that he completes it without getting hurt. Keep us in your prayers. Have a great weekend!
