St. Valentine's Day

Yup, reaching backward in time now that I'm back to blogging.  My goal is a post a day Sun through Friday.  So far I'm 2/2!

Start the day with some pink heart shaped pancakes

Some chocolate to melt down... no big deal

   

Pshew... lots of work and clean up but...

 WORTH IT!!!  SO good!  It's so rich you actually NEED the fruit for the sweetness.

My flowers :)

I finally made this heart garland based on this tutorial.  Super simple, but I've thought of making it for a couple years now.  It's just different colored felt sewn together.  I might have to make something for more holidays in the future :) B was good to model for me in front of our mantel...

it is just me or does he look a whole lot like my bro Eric in this pic!?
Mom, can you scan a photo to me and I'll put them side by side?

15 Weeks!

This is my "is she pregnant?" shirt :)

We're planning on not finding out the gender of this little guy or gal until we see him/her in person so feel free to enter your bets by July to see if you win anything based on gender, weight, height... I know I'll have a guess or two.

Joe and I went to a Valentine's brunch at Church with our Covenant of Love group. It was really nice and we got to sit with Ryanne, Nathan, Maureen and Mike. We're blessed to have such great friends! We'll have our customary pizza and beer this evening... this year though it's root beer :)
