Valentines 2012

Sunday, Feb 12.. was our Valetines Date Day that my parents kept the girls for us. Started off by going to church! I promise one day we WILL be on time! lol We try so hard to be on time but ends but being at least 5-10 min late! lol Harder with 2 kids than just getting your self ready and out the door! But anyways... so we have been working with trying to get Avery to stay in the nursary.. she has been doing so good but sunday, she wanted nothing to do with it unless me or Jake stayed in there with her. Tried to just bring her in service with us, but lets face it a 21 month old staying quiet in church for 2 hours... NO WAY! lol So Jake took her out first then I came out... I tried to leave her in the nursery again, but nope not having it! So i stayed with her in there holding Annaliese. So then when I was thinking service was about to be over I went ahead and walked out and glancing in the door of the santuary. They were getting prayed for. So we sat out in the foyer... as Avery ran around getting into everything I started getting stressed . She went into the kitchen and picked up glass cups and I chased her from here to there (IN HEALS... that I never wear and decided to wear them on that day), also did i mention I had a 14 pound baby in  my arms the hole time too! Well I just got so frustrated with her. She is in this stage where if we say no Avery dont do that... she just keeps on doing it! LORD HELP ME!!!! I love her so much but she stresses me out sometime! I know that she is testing us, and that she wont be like this forever! But I would love to sit through a whole message at church. Just pray that she will start staying in nursery the whole time and be good!!!!!

We left there and came home.... i was still not in a good mood ....

Well in this time the place that Jake was gonna surprise me and take me calls and says that they have canceled it because we were the only 2 signed up! It was a dinner cruise! How sweet was that , that he thought of that and made reservations... well that added to my upsetness that we wouldnt be able to do what he had planned and have nothing else planned for us to do.

well we ate lunch and my parents came and got the girls. took a couple pics out by my Valentines Set up, and headed out.

Went to Target 1st ... yes target on our V-day date! lol We had to get diapers and wipes! lol

Then headed to the movies! Well we wait in line for umm bout 25 min and of coarse we get in the "wrong line" and get the slowest girl ever.... well we get up to buy our tickets and guess what... yepp.. sold out! Well that added fuel to my already upset self.... And aggervated me headed straight to the car.

Jake being sweet through the whole thing while I complain complian... headed out just driving... well finally he said lets just go back and get a later viewing .. So we did... and thank God that it wasnt sold out then.

So he said we have an hour what do you want to do... seeing that I was still upset... from everything happening that day.... I said can we get pedicures.. he said you or me and you! lol I said both of us! So knowing my hubby hates massages and people touching him... he smiled and said yes babe we can. =]

So the place i normally goes to was closed because its sunday but the old place I use to go to was open. So we went and I started to calm down, and started to enjoy the day with my sweet husband who does everything in the world to make me happy and hates seeing me upset! Thank you Lord for this wonderful man who knows how to make me happy, make me feel better, and puts up with me when I get into my moods.... So we got our pedicures... so taking him to the place me and my dad normally go cause they are so much better and spend so much more time with you than the old place. But he said it was an experiance! lol

Left there and headed back to the movie theater.... got in line to get pop corn... then waited for our seating... we went and seen "The Vow"... wow what a movie.. I wont say anything about it, because if you havent seen it I dont want to ruin anything for you! But what A Love.... what a true true love! By the end of the movie and seeing everything that they had to go through, I had thought about everything about my "bad" day and realized it wasnt that bad. People go through such worst things than a movie being sold out, or a cruise being canceled, or a 21 month old running aroung getting into everything. Im so thankful for everything in my life and for the love of an amazing man. We went to O'charleys after the movie and it was good to just sit and talk with my husband about everything ! With school, work, and the girls its hard for us to find time for just us and to really just sit and talk. Im so glad we had this time. I love my husband more and more with every day that goes by!

So what started off as a "bad" day ended as a great one! So I learned that you really shouldnt sweat the small things, love your life and dont be worried about the people around you. Your family is the most important thing to you. Yes my daughter stresses me out , but I love her with all my heart! And when she says Loves you Momma and gives me a kiss and a big hug, it just melts my heart! Im thankful for healthy children that can run and get into things. I'm thankful for a hard working ,loving, amazing, God-fearing husband. God has blessed me , and I'm so thankful, more than words can say. We are on your path God, lead us and we will follow! Thank you Lord for your mercy and grace!

Today: Feb14.... I woke up to find heart shaped candy boxes everywhere in our house. On top of the tv, by the coffee pot, by the computer, in the microwave, in the washer and dryer, in the fridge, and in the bathroom... and it was the kind i like, the cheap ones with the cream filling! YUMM! Everytime I found a box it made me smile so big. I love that he took the time to think of this for me! He is really my one and only! My true love, best friend, and my soul mate! Also he had me Cadberry Eggs (MY FAV) sitting on the table surronding my card! Which was the sweetest thing! I cant say enough how much I love my husband! He gets me , in every possible way!

We gave the girls their presents when he got home from school.

Avery-- a veggie tales movie and a HUGE bear card =] that she Loved!!!

Annaliese got a little rattle toy cause she has started grabbing things..

Annaliese weights 14.1 lbs and 24 in long.

Avery weights 28lbs !

My girls are growing and getting so big! I wish it would slow down. I want to enjoy every minute of life with them.

Thats it for now! Thanks for listening =]
