Valentines Day

At our house, Valentines Day is special but not to the point where flowers, chocolates, etc. are purchased. The reason being....Brett's birthday is the 4th of February and mine is the 16th of February so with all the birthday celebrations we agreed to just do a simple approach. This year that was me letting Brett sleep in and me getting a nap and some time out of the house. (I've been staying put with Ian's transplant and am kind of forgetting what a store is....)

Brett's sleep in time was cut short as Ian vomited. That is a "code red" situation in our house so the troops were mobilized. We did the round of "tests" at home to see if he was ok. These tests include poking his tummy, taking temperature, the cap test, etc. He was fine so we monitored him and gave him saltines which he was able to handle. No other incidents came about so we didn't have to call the transplant team.

Later in the day after the stars aligned, a horseshoe was put above our door, a rabbits foot was on a key ring, a penny was picked up (you get the idea) EVERYONE got a nap and AT THE SAME TIME!!!! Amazing stuff!

Ian and Brett finally got guitar hero set up. This was my christmas present to brett that I stood in line on black friday at target, ran through the store and thwarted the masses to come up with. (Read...I love my hubby). Brett was brillant and for Christmas he gave Ian a toy guitar which Ian loved to play along with Brett. It was the cutest thing and so incredibly smart of Brett to have the foresight to think of.
