Plans?  What are you buying your guy?

 

Im going to lunch with my mother in law and then making chili or going out to eat tonight. I haven't decided yet.  I need to get a card for H, too.

Re: Happy V-Day!

  • We don't really have plans for today. I got H the Bluray edition of Saving Private Ryan. Not really romantic but he has been saying he wanted it for a long time. We are actually celebrating Valentine's Day on Friday night. H's brother and his wife are coming into town and the ILs are keeping the girls (M and my neice) so we can go out to eat and then see a Beatles tribute band. Should be fun.

  • We had a breakfast date this morning since we both have class this evening. Hubby's present was a quilt that I made. He's been asking me to make him a blanket for forever.
  • Blah, I have work, then class, then work, then tutoring. I won't see H until probably 9-9:30ish. We celebrated over the weekend though with dinner and a movie. I got H some cologne (thanks for all the recs by the way! I definitely took all the suggestions into consideration. It's crazy how difficult cologne shopping is. I ended up getting Kenneth Cole Reaction.) DH got me a cute scarf and the Adele CD. And a couple upcoming race entry fees are going to count as part of my gift, man those fees really add up if you run races often.

  • We are going to celebrate this weekend. We're both so busy during the week that it's hard to do much. I don't think we'll exchange gifts... just go out for a nice, quiet, romantic dinner.

  • I'm going to Omaha for work so my plans will be meeting up with some air force buddies for dinner and drinks. We're pretending Saturday is valentines day. 

    I got Kevin a card and a new wallet. We agreed on no big gifts and all that.  

  • We celebrated last weekend.  We ate at Cheever's (SO good!).  We weren't supposed to get each other gifts, but both of us did.  I made him a card and got him the coffee grinder he had been wanting but was waiting on our tax refund to buy.  He got me a book that I have been talking about wanting for a couple of months but couldn't justify buying myself.
  • We were baby-free this weekend so we went out to dinner Saturday night and rented a movie. This morning I gave DH a card, his favorite candy, and an Encyclopedia of Guns. He really liked the book and he said I surprised him--which never happens so I'm happy about that! Tonight I'm making tacos for dinner, nothing special :)

  • I told H we didn't need to exchange gifts this year since he's not here. My parents have JJ this week, so it'll be me, chocolate and a movie on the couch tonight.

    Well, I lied - I did get H something, sorta. He'll have to wait until the end of September though...baby no. 2 is on the way. :)

  • Ugh! I have three different upper respiratory infections, my 14 month old is also sick, because of me. So, we are at home all day. Sucks royally! I can't talk, so it is hard to communicate with her. She keeps giving me this sad face when I do talk, because I sound like a 6 pack a day smoking monster. My husband had to go into work today, so I am toughing out the day taking care of her. 

    Tonight we plan on making a romantic dinner. (while I try not to cough on everything) On Sat. we are going out to eat and go play pool (like one of our first dates). We just gave each other cards and chocolate this year, we are trying to save up for a house and get out of debt.

  • Congrats, OSUWifey!

    We're going out for dinner at a place that does one of those multi-course Valentine's Day menus, and just giving each other cards. We're both so excited...it's been, like, a billion years since we've gone out for a nice meal together. :D

    WHAAATTTT?!??! Congrats! How did you tell him the news? Have you told your family? So exciting!

    Thanks! :) It was totally unromantic how I told him, which is boring. I've only talked to him like, four times since he shipped out at the beginning of January, so I had to tell him over the phone when he called a couple of weeks ago that I thought I was pregnant. He was shocked and accidentally hung up on me because he dropped the phone; pretty sure that was the last thing he was expecting me to say.

    My sister was with me when I took my HPT, so she knew right away. I told my parents last week, and they were super, super excited. JJ still doesn't get the concept of a new baby, but we're working on it. :)

    Oh, and EDIT: the tie-in to Valentine's Day is that when I talked to H, I told him that I had a very early Valentine's Day present for him but that I wasn't sure I should wait until Valentine's Day to tell him what it was. That's when I told him about the BFP and he dropped the phone on me.

We are not doing gifts since we never have time without each other to get anything. I am thinking about making a homemade card for him. Stick out tongue

    Baha! It's still early - I'm 8 weeks - but I already have a bump and horrendous morning sickness, so it's about time I start coming out slowly. :)

    And are you going to Brooklyn's? Or somewhere else?

  • I just received a paper heart at OU after class that says "Valentine, no glove, no love!" and it has a condom taped to it. Hahahaha. Oh, and they were giving out free apples....hmm, that was strange.

  • We are about to go to Hensley's for Valentines Day lunch since we both work nights. I got H cologne. He got me exactly what I've been asking for for the last month... A cookie cake from the mall with the brown chocolate icing only. Yummy! 

     

     Congrats OSUWifey!! Yay for September babies!! I hope you get to feeling better.

  • VDay is not a big day for us... my birthday is in 4 days and our anniversary is 2 weeks after!

    I got DH some cologne (Diesel, it smells AWESOME) and a nice card. He bought me some candies from our childhood. Incredibly sweet as I have been reminiscing about them for weeks now.

    No plans. I have class and he has class. We won't see each other until 9ish.

  • Congrats, OSUWifey! :) What a great Valentine's Day present.

    Tonight H and I have dinner reservations at Trattoria Il Centro downtown. I got him a new petzl headlamp, and he got me a necklace. I woke up feeling like crap today, and work has been insane, so I'm just hoping to stay awake through dinner.

  • I am a Valentine's Hater and nearly did not click on this post - SO GLAD that I did - congrats OSUWIFEY!!!!

    I hate VD, DH loves it, so we celebrated this weekend while in Dallas.  I plan to make him homemade ravioli tonight and I am really excited about that. I got him this huge horse head as a gift and we are returning it. It was a tad larger than I expected. He got me some perfume and the Jason Wu cat bag.

    Whoa! I wasn't expecting that, at all! CONGRATS! 

    H and I don't really have any plans. I'm planning on cooking Cheez It Chicken for supper. I grabbed a bag of his favorite candy and ordered him a subscription to Field & Stream. I'd like to go see the movie 'This Means War', but I don't think it opens until this weekend. So really, nothing exciting.
