Valentine's weekend has turned out quite memorable this year. Friday night the church had a Parents' Night Out, so Kevin and I went on a date to a fancy restaurant. What a treat! I have to say that between the grandparents and our local church, I'm getting very spoiled with childcare.
This weekend has also been fun because my brother's kids Max, Anna Kate, and Jake are in town. Chad and Erin are on a business trip, so Granna and Papa Jim are taking care of them until Monday when they will go visit Erin's parents for a few days. Grace is having an absolute BLAST with her cousins. Also, my first cousins Michele and Laura flew into town this weekend, so Granna planned a big family Valentine's party. I have gone a little picture-happy as you can see below.
Here we are getting ready to take Grace to Parents' Night Out... Grace has been very affectionate with us this week. Maybe somehow she knows life's about to change for her!

And, I had a funny (ok, I thought it was an odd) conversation with my doctor this week in which he encouraged me to document my belly more in pictures. He said most women are glad they did. The belly is getting enormous. It's running into things. Stares and comments abound these days. I can't believe baby girl will be here in less than 20 days!

Grace was thrilled to get a Dora crown
Jake had fun at the table with his new toy, too. You should see this 2 year old on a razor scooter; he's amazing!
