Happy Valentine's Day 2011

This year we celebrated Valentine's Day a couple of days early.  #1- Reid is in an indoor soccer league and whaddayaknow, he has a game that evening.  #2- We took full advantage of Friday night off and thought we'd beat the crowds.  We even HIRED a babysitter for the first time ever.  I felt as though I have come full circle in the world.  I used to babysit all the time in high school and now I've got my "list" of available sitters growing!  :)  Reid and I enjoyed a night at Zona Rosa Shopping Center.  We ate at Abuelo's Mexican restaurant and then walked around the area.  We decided we'd each pick a store and buy ourselves Valentine's gifts, instead of pressure of picking out the right gift, etc.  It was a really fun way to ensure we liked them, too!  Reid got the 3rd book in the "Girl with a Dragon Tattoo" series and I got some jewelry from my new favorite accessories store, Charming Charlie.  And of course, we had to get a few things for Jack.  He'll be getting the books, "Kailan love Yeye", "My Fuzzy Valentine" (Elmo), and "Just Keep Swimming".  He loves to read, so any chance to add to his collection, we do!
Before we left for our evening out, we had to get a couple of pictures.  Jack was a little jealous he wasn't in them, so here is a Valentine from us to YOU!

We hope you have a LOVE-ly Valentine's Day!
Until next time...
