Valentine's Day Things

I love getting flowers every so often. I always want flowers for Valentine's Day but we usually have our Shaeffer family Hawaii trip within a few days of Valentine's so it just doesn't make sense for Marty to get me flowers and then only enjoy them a day or two before we're gone. This year Marty surprised me with some pretty flowers ahead of time. Isn't that so sweet? I've been loving them this whole weekend :)

One thing that I've enjoyed since being married is taking traditions from my family and from Marty's family and establishing traditions in our home.

After I put them on, she wanted me to put her in her crib because she noticed they were new. It was so cute!

Last December, HR closed their rec center childcare and I was crushed because that meant I could no longer go to their daytime classes. I thought nothing could compare to those classes. But I was so wrong. I have loved the cardio/weight training at Chuze and have loved going to classes with my friends several days each w...

 And baby #2 is a... GIRL! Bring on the pink. Marty's not a huge fan of gender reveals...but I thought it'd be fun to do a little something. I ended up bringing pink donuts to YWs and surprising the girls. The girls gave me all the reactions I had hoped for ;)
