My Valentines

Okay I have to say that this is one of the best Valentines Day ever. I have never had TWO valentines before! Nick is officially the most adorable husband in the world. He had me sleep late that morning while he and Jacks surprised me with a waffle, hot chocolate breakfast. They brought new vday slippers up to me and me come down stairs to flowers, valentines, and a super cute chocolate/pink breakfast. Jacks got me a card and put his handprints in it and everything. It was so sweet. I have had fancy gifts and dates before – but honestly nothing beats this. Little special things mean more to me than anything money can buy. It was totally priceless.

We did have a fun night out planned that didn’t quite work out….I was so pumped. I must talk about the Melting Pot a lot because I have two gift cards to go eat there from Nick & Erica and Chris & Bethany (looks like my little plan worked - hee hee hee). The only problem is I only tried to get reservations two weeks in advance and apparently that isn’t enough time!?!? So we are going to try next week or something. Oh well like I said we really didn’t even need to go anywhere!

We spent the day together and took some photos of me with my two valentines. It was great. Jacks wanted to go see Grandma Debbie so he got her some flowers and surprised her. So we got to see Shawnee and cousin Addalie too. We did discover the first signs of Jayjoe not wanting to share…he totally yelled at Addalie for picking up one of his toys…so it begins…

Can you believe Nick did something this cute all by himself? I was quite a lot of sugar for me but I did my best - and it was yummers

Just out of bed! Isn't this shirt the best? So appropriate for valentines day. My sister in law Erica got it for me for Christmas - and one for herself (since we both love Nicks!). I should wear it every year!

I felt so spoiled! Special slippies and everything

We had some friends over the other day and I was really into taking photos of Jayjoe with his buddies. I was so into getting pics of the bubbers I didn't really remember many of the adults. I need to focus!

Bright Eyes

When people see Jacks the first comment is usually “Wow look at those big pretty eyes!” He has always been very aware of everything going on around him and just really connects with people – looking right at them and smiling with his big eyes. Nick has amazing gray/blue eyes and before I had Jacks I was totally picturing him having the same beautiful eyes – but now I would never trade them for anything!

It has been hard to figure out the color (I’ve been asked about it a lot...) Right now they are kind of a steel/green/brown color. At my last doctor appointment he said that he thinks they are going green because that’s how they look before they turn green – and green eyes take the longest to set in. I had hazel eyes as a little girl which have gotten more and more green as I got older. It’s a Hart thing I guess. I adore every little thing about Jayjoe but I am such a sucker when he looks up at me with those eyes. He is my little Baby Bright Eyes

Hanging out at Grandmas

I know some of you can appreciate this kick butt shirt! Michelle from Nick's office got it for us -isn't it awesome?! Now we need to train him to "bicycle boogey" to Send Me and Angel! Oh I thats a great movie...

Circus!

We got a chance to go the circus with my family a couple Saturdays ago at the Farmington Fairgrounds. I wasn’t sure how Jacks would react to all the noise and craziness…..He had his ups and downs but overall I think it went really well. When I first took him out of his seat and held him up to see he LOVED it – he bounced, squealed, and even clapped his hands. I think he was looking at the light up toys all the kids had mostly but hey whatever. He also got his first taste of cotton candy too…I know I am terrible! I meant to get photos of everyone but missed the Murrays and mama Carol and papa Bob. It worked out so great because it was just a fun last minute thing! Next year same time same place? I'll have to let Jacks ride the elephant next time...
