I had to work the night before Valentines Day so Donovan was great at helping get everything ready for Connor in the morning. We put paper hearts from Connor's room throughout the house leading him to the kitchen table were his valentines were waiting for him. The funniest thing of the morning is when Connor woke up and came out of his room he walked in to wake up Donovan and he said: " oh Daddy did you make a mess, we can not make messes we need to clean it up", so Connor picked up all the hearts on his way to the table. 
Connor was so good to wait for me to get home to open his valentine. It was so adorable as I walked through the door I received candy and cards from my two favorite boys. 
Connor opened his valentines he was excited for his candy, heart crayons (thanks pinterest), and bath letters and numbers.
After we opened our valentines we cooked an amazing valentines breakfast, including heart pancakes, berry shakes, heart croissants filled with eggs, cheese, and bacon. Donovan had to head to Casper, Wyoming for work so after breakfast and a quick nap for me he was on the road. I was sad he had to leave on Valentines Day but we had a great morning and I was glad to come home and have breakfast with my boys.
It was a nice day outside and one of Connor's favorite things to do is to play outside, so we headed to the park to play, Connor was excited to play at the park and was happy to have Nana join us.

We had a great afternoon at the park. After the park we headed home and Connor and I watched movies. Donovan was in Wyoming till Wednesday night so Connor and I had the night to ourselves. I let Connor pick what he wanted for dinner and he chose Cafe Rio. Nana joined us for dinner since my Dad was working as well. After Cafe Rio we headed home and went to bed. This Valentines Day was almost perfect, I wish Donovan could have been home. Many would consider this not a great Valentines Day but I love spending time with my family, these are the days and moments that mean the most to me and I look forward to many more occasions that I get to spend with the 2 greatest boys in my life!
Sounds like a perfect Valentine's Day minus Donovan of course!
