february 13

it was a fun day full of preparations for valentine's day.  we made out valentines for school and baked cupcakes.  this evening we went to megan's for dinner and the big show the kids have been looking forward to - jake and the neverland pirates, the return of peter pan.  all the kids love jake so we thought it would be fun for them to watch the special episode together.  all the cousins cuddled on the couch together and chase cuddled in my lap :)  it bums me out that chase doesn't like to be in our family pictures - hopefully he'll grow up knowing that he was there, just not in the pictures!

tonight i stayed up preparing for a special valentine's morning.  i decorated the house and wrapped a few little presents and set the table and got things ready for breakfast.  now off to bed i go...
