Then you place them in a cellophane bag, attach this message and tie and you have a cute sweet treat!
On Thursday morning we had a wonderful pancake breakfast prepared just for his girls by Aaron. He got up early and started cooking and we woke to the smell of pancakes, sausage, and bacon. Too bad every day is not Valentine's Day! Oh, and he made his yummy homeade hot chocolate served in tea cups. He saw these tea cups a couple of weeks ago and decided he wanted to start getting each of the girls tea cups each year for Valentine's Day. They get to drink out of them on Valentine's Day and then we put them away. I thought this was a great idea. We always get them a little something and this way they will have something to keep rather than candy or something that will be torn up by the end of the day. He is such a girl daddy! Good thing since he has 4!
You can see the tea cups and notice the bacon making an X and then the sausage and pancakes are O's. He wanted to cut the pancakes in heart shapes and ran out of time so we got X's and O's! The man is good!
Sallie enjoying her hot chocolate. She was not feeling great but a little hot chocolate helps! We took her to the Dr the day before with an urinary tract infection. She is feeling much better now. However, because she has only one kidney and we have to protect that one we will be taking her Friday (the 22nd) for some testing. The Dr wants to make sure that there is not a problem causing the UTIs and also to look at the structure of her urinary tract. So, please be in prayer that not only will the test results be good but please please please pray for God's peace for Sallie. She has been through so much that just the sight of a hospital sends her into fits and then she will have to be confined and a catheter placed in, etc. for the testing. We appreciate your prayers for sweet Sallie! I know she is mine but I promise they don't get any sweeter than Sallie!!!
Millie and Lizzie had their 6 and 18 month check-ups in honor of Valentine's Day! Four shots for Millie and one for Lizzie. I know that was not very nice on the day of LOVE!
A had class that night so the girls and I just hung out and did a lot of nothing! We always like to have a nice dinner as a family to celebrate so we had our dinner on Fri night since A was in class on Thursday. He made shrimp alfredo with linguine completely from scratch and it was incredible! We ate from our fine china. However, I am not yet brave enough for them to use my crystal so we drank out of cheap goblets because the girls think it is so neat. They had heart shaped ice! They love it!
Elleigh's favorite dessert is Molten Chocolate Cake and I love to bake but I had never attempted to make them so I gave it a try and they were so good! 
The fun didn't end there. On Saturday night we had a babysitter and A and I went downtown for dinner and a movie. We had a GREAT time! Those opportunities are very rare for us and we appreciate every moment of being with each other when we get the chance. We were in much need of that time! We came home refreshed and ready to take care of the many needs of 4 girls! I have felt the best in the past few days I have felt in a long time and I know it is your prayers. I can't say thank you enough and please keep praying. I FEEL THEM!
Now back to reality and DIETING! Cheating was so much fun!
