Valentine's Day

Who is to say Valentine's Day can't be fun in residency? We love to celebrate things around here. And if I can make me boys feel a little extra special, I will. David gave me those beautiful pink tulips. Tulips just make me happy.


And for Owen...well, we went a little outside the box for his Valentine's treat. The boy loves garbage trucks and we couldn't think of anything he would love more than his very own garbage truck.

He has yet to put that garbage truck down. You can bet that went to sleep with it and he has toted it around everywhere.

We may not have had a romantic dinner out for two, but we had a very lovely meal as a family of three last night and that is a big deal in itself. We were so glad David got to stay home with us and didn't go back in to the hospital last night.  David grilled filets accompanied by a blue cheese butter and loaded potatoes with asparagus.


And it wouldn't be valentine's without a few chocolate strawberries...

With the little one in bed, Mama and Daddy finished off that bottle of wine and sampled a few chocolates from our favorite french broad chocolates.
