Happy V-Day!

First, if you want to answer a random valentine's day question at Just Another Quick Question, you can head on over. And you can see a cute picture of a smurf cupid.

Moving on... Valentine's day started off nicely here at home. Erica woke up before Andrew left for work, so she got her present this morning. She got a pack of red cups with hearts on them. I've been wanting to get her more regular cups; she's getting to be a big girl and doesn't need sippy cups all the time. She also got a pack of candy hearts. I had picked out a heart necklace and bracelet. She was thrilled with them. [Unfortunately, the necklace didn't even last half-an-hour. Its one that clasps in the back, and she tried pulling it off-- thus breaking it. The thing was only a dollar, so I'll pick up another one today.] Her favorite gift was a special chapstick; its a big thing, and came with stickers and gems to decorate it with. She really liked putting the stickers on and is proud of herself for making it look so nice. All morning, she's been walking around with it. [Which is good, b/c the cold weather has made her lips so dried and cracked. She's been picking at them, making her lips bleed.]

She's given me the perfect gift: she's potty training! Finally!! Its fantastic. And I owe it all to Reagan. We got together with him and his mommy on Monday to go to Kidz Escape. We had a fantastic time. Anyway, he's potty training, and I think that made Erica want to as well.

Now, on to my Hubby. I made him my own card. He didn't get it yet... but here's what it said:

I love you...
More than you can ever realize.
I will love you always and forever.
God brought us together,
And I know that He has something wonderful in store for us.

OMG... Becky w/ another baby. Eek!
Love ya, Becks, but no babies (for now!) Totally random, Tim. But I see where you'd get that original impression.

Happy V-Day.
