Happy Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day is not hugely celebrated at our house...although it should be!! Kylie on the other hand as been super excited about it. I'm not sure how she picked up on it because I hadn't really talked about it with her, but every time it was mentioned on the TV she would get really excited. She loves holidays and I think she figured out that that's what it was. Last night she was having a hard time going to bed so I told her that tomorrow was Valentine's day and if she was a good girl and went to sleep that cupid would bring her a gift in the night. She had a hard time remembering his name and kept calling him Lukum. After asking several questions such as, "What does Lukum look like?" and "How does he get here?" She finally went to bed.

This morning she was excited to discover that Cupid had come and left her a Mr. "Potatum" Head...of himself. She calls him potatum head because my cousin that I stayed with up in Salt Lake while Jase was in the hospital has a daughter named Tatum who is Kylie's same age and the two became good friends. In the very beginning Kylie called Tatum Potatum. Apparently she thought her name sounded like potato. I don't know why she thought that, but it was funny. (she did later learn that her name was just Tatum) So now she calls potatoes potatums.

Jeremy and I decided to get crazy and try our hand at heart shaped pancakes. How hard can it be really?

Mine had a bit of a Micky Mouseness about them...



and Jeremy's biggest problem was getting one flipped over without landing on another.



The rest of the day was just spent hanging out. We did decided to venture out and went for a ride around town. That is about as romantic as it gets with a two year old and a baby who can't get sick.
