Valentine's Day Fun & 4 Month Old Clara

We started off our Valentine's day with our traditional breakfast and treats, though this year we had Krispy Kremes for breakfast instead of monkey bread, but the kids didn't complain. Everyone got a Valentine, books, and chocolates. I love the book tradition so much that this year I got everyone 2 books. I really should never be let loose in Barnes & Noble. Here's the books the kiddos and Adrian got:

How fun it is to buy board books again. And while I'm at it look at these adorable books I bought a little while ago for Clara. Seriously the cutest board books EVER! On the cover of the Pride and Prejudice one Lizzy is wearing a shirt that says "I heart Darcy"! My goodness, they are adorable.

Clara woke up a little bit after breakfast and she got to open her presents too (she didn't get to eat her chocolates, but Adrian enjoyed them:)). As you can see she was still tired. I don't think she's a morning person. Neither am I, that's why I also look half asleep (maybe I should reconsider posting this picture of no-make-up pajamas me, but Clara's grumpy cat face is just too fun not to include).

She got happier with some tickles and swing time. Nina loves entertaining Clara in her swing or at any other time for that matter.

Ben and Nina took these very fun Valentine's boxes to school for their parties. Nina's was kind of like a purse and Ben's was a headless Valentines box - I thought it was very creative.

We had a great Valentine's day and after the kiddos went to bed Adrian and I were able to sneak out (not really sneak, Sophie was babysitting :)) for a late night Japanese steakhouse dinner. It was delicious and it was so nice to have a real date with Adrian.

Just for fun I'm going to throw in a couple of 4 month old pictures of Clara taken earlier in the month. I can't believe she is almost 5 months old now!
