I Love You Day

"Louis calls Valentine's Day "I Love You Day". We're so lucky to have three children who love one another so much. In the morning the kids opened their Valentine's Day gifts.

Read me my card...please!

He who sleeps...

Makes a mommy very happy. When the boys end up taking dual naps together I feel like I've won a huge prize. When they sleep at the same time and usually for the same length of time they are both in a much happier mood. It also gives me some time to get some much needed things done around the house. When we got rid of our full size couch I pretty much gave up on a future of dual naps happening downstairs as they have for nearly 2 years. Turns out the loveseat must be made of the same sleepy dust and the boys don't care that they have less room on it.

There was a saying as a kid that my mom used to always say about how kids followed their moms around everywhere. Same as in English--a rabbit and it's tail. That is how I see Louis and Gabriel some days. Louis follows me and Gabriel follows him. Most days though they are happy together. We picked them up some Ikea POÄNG Children's armchairs for them. Louis loves when they match and matching chairs made him very happy.

The Love of a Brother

Louis loves with a huge heart. He wants you to know he loves you and looks for ways to show it. Like Leah he makes crafts and gives us cards he's made to tell us thank you or I love you. The kids LOVE Valentine's Day. It isn't a couple thing is our house, it is all about loving our family and using the holiday to celebrate that love. Any excuse for Louis to enjoy arts and crafts.
